Looks real to me.

I was just wondering if this is a "real" Stetson. Gift from a friend since he knows that I own Akubras, I might like Stetson aswell. Dont know much about the history of the hat and would appreciate some help with the model name & if authentic etc. View attachment 440657 View attachment 440659 View attachment 440660 View attachment 440661 View attachment 440662 View attachment 440663

Yep, it’s genuine. If someone was going to make a counterfeit Stetson I don’t think it would be a 5X from this era.

Wouldn't be a bad scam. Low level, modest returns, and nobody would ever suspect, LOL.

Have you been calling me about my expiring car’s warranty?

No, but I'll shortly be appearing in a commercial with Ice-T.

I’d rather be in a commercial with Coco.

Trustpilot considers this one a scammer, so giving it a miss!

Are they using Stetson trademarks and pictures to market knock-off hats?

Has anyone seen a ribbon and bow sewn on like this?

Wondering who may have experience good or bad with Gamble & Gunn in Great Britain.
Have this pork pie ordered and on the way:
https://gambleandgunn.com/product/gamble-gunn-heisenberg-style-porkpie-hat/
At $41 U.S. obviously not high end but other hats I’ve gotten in the UK have been very decent, though this is my first Gamble & Gunn purchase.
Just wanted to see if anyone can weigh in on this company and anything you may have from them.

It is a wool hat at a cheap price so I would not have too high expectations but for that money if you get a season out of it you are OK.

I am on the other side of the fence......No, and I don't care for it.

It’s not for me either.

I have one of their flat caps and am well pleased with it. It's my favourite of many I own. Mind you, it cost slightly more than the pork pie!

I’m not familiar with the brand. To me, it’s all about managing your expectations. It looks nice and I like the shape. You might get years of completely satisfied use out of it. It probably is t going to compare to a high quality fur felt hat, but then it doesn’t cost as much either.

If you get it be sure to share your initial and long term impressions with us.

Cant speak on their hats and fedoras. But I own several of their newsboy caps and they're very well made.

I feel like they tried to give the Gay Prince treatment to a grosgrain ribbon.

I've been keeping an eye on their "New Orleans" Slate Grey Pork Pie myself, only because they don't currently have my size in stock, so if you decide to pull the trigger please be sure to favor us with a review. I've read some good things about Gamble & Gunn here, but I counter that with the thought, "It's still a wool hat."

Second thought for me is whether to buy 59 cm or 61 cm when the time comes, because I'm right in the middle at 60 cm. I suppose 61 might be the smarter move, because I'll still have a bit of wiggle room as it inevitably shrinks.
