I had been searching for a Last Drop 3XB for some time; if this one weren't too snug for my 57.4cm noggin I wouldn't part with it. I can wear it in the proper place on my head (I can even pull it down beyond the largest circumference of head without a problem), but it's not comfortable.
This 3XB is like fresh from the box.
Specs:
Last Drop embroidered liner with thin plastic foil cover
5.5" x 2 7/8" all the way around; raw brim
Internal circumference: 22 1/8"
Fits like a snug 7 1/8
The western felt is firm and thick, but still moldable; it has a very even finish. The center dent and side dents will hold by dry crease.
There are no signs of wear and no flaws. The sweatband is in perfect condition, flippable without a problem; the onion skin behind the sweatband is also in excellent condition (see pic). The felt has no discolorations, no moth tracks, and no signs of stretching attempts anywhere. There is no discoloration caused by migration through the leather sweatband to the felt, either.
Due to the properties of the Stetson logo on the sweatband, I estimate this hat to be from a later decade (70s probably, or perhaps 60s); it's definitely not from the 1950s. The gold embossment is more superficial and not as well-defined as in earlier Stetsons; the gold color itself has that newer look to it, too.
I'm asking €100 ($120) plus shipping.
Due to shipping and customs duties, I have more than what I'm asking into it, but I think this is what the hat itself is worth.
This hat ships from Germany, so shipping insured will be:
to Germany: €7 ($8.50)
to EU: €17 ($20)
to USA: € 36 ($44)
Please PM, if interested. Due to the time difference (Europe/ U.S.), I may respond with some delay.
