Ok, so how about this one: I love the style of the Fed IV. What brands/styles are similar? I'm anxious to pick up a brand new lid...
.... in the 40+ years I've worn hats, I had NEVER heard the term "bash" used to denote the style of shape of the crown. My experience has been that this was called the "crease" and when you got an open crowned hat, you had it "creased" at the hatters in the shape /style you wanted. Where/when did the term "bash" come from? I had never heard/seen this term 'till I came to this Forum

I see on some of the hats and some of mine have what apears to be an elastic cord with a loop on one end and a button on the other. It is attached under the hat band. What does it do? Is it just for looks? If it becomes loose how does one tighten it? Any other info on this would be great.

What was the name of that Stetson book ya'all were talking about? I'd like to try and date my Stetsons.
The book is not very useful for dating purposes.
What do you think JamesPowers....ya want to start deleting post we think useless?
