For Sale - Very Rare 1930's Stetson "The Chase" Equestrian Derby Size 7

[Joshbru3]

Up for sale is probably the most comfortable derby I have ever worn. This hat was made for equestrian use but whats nice about it is that it does NOT have that metal hook attached to the back of the brim like so many equestrian derbies do. It looks like a standard 1930's Stetson Derby from the outside but you get the added comfort of a very nicely padded wide fabric sweatband. The front of the sweatband even has a piece of black velour attached to it for added comfort. The derby is in very nice shape and is a pretty rare find. I've seen a good amount of equestrian derbies, but never another 1930's Stetson marked "The Chase" which was the model designation. I'm getting rid of this hat because I have a TON of black derbies and I have found that I prefer the higher crowned models a little better. The crown on this hat measures 5 inches tall which was the standard in the 30's.

I'm asking $85 shipped to anywhere in the CONUS.

This is sold. But for $26, I should have kept it. I bet if it said Whippet on it, it would have sold for more.

I would have loved if it did, so I could have gotten my money back. It sold for $26.00. The buy-it-now was $75.00, but no one opted to buy it for that price.

I feel ya Josh, I sold a stetson on ebay for a similar price which I should have just kept.
