Hatco/Stetson is Teasing Us

[Brad Bowers]

In a photo from the factory, Stetson's latest Facebook post shows off a new color for their Homburg, but there are other hats in the photo that hint at vintage styling, if they are modern Stetsons. Even the Homburg seems to have more vintage style. What this could possibly mean, I have no idea. I just found it interesting. HATCO, if you're listening, please do this for the Dobbs line!

The bows look sloppy enough to be modern on all of them--but the styling does look promising.

This is quite interesting. As noted above the bow work isn't fantastic but I like these profiles

I'm hoping the bows were quick additions on some prototypes, and not representative of production models.

Hopefully with the Deckard on board, there will be some interesting things to come from Stetson/Hatco.

Lets hope they won't bleed dye all over the ribbon.
I do hope that they put out something like the hats in the photos.

Bow work isn't fantastic, but an improvement over the very obvious tacking stitches I've seen on quite a few Stetsons.

Interesting... There's also a vintage hat box in the background whatever that means.
I like the gray one, looks like a 30's style profile.

Hmm, I've always wanted a Homburg to compliment my vintage whippet (Difficult to find a vtg homburg in 7 5/8 or 7 3/4. I seriously lucked out when I got my vtg whippet in 7 5/8 Extra Long oval (I'm regular oval myself) !
Anybody know what Stetson call their Homburg hats nowadays?

Apparently I slept through the Matt Deckard goes to Hatco news. Now the Dallas meet up makes a little sense.
