I don't really like the Stetson logo on the side.
This hat has a high quality and; is the best model now, I believe wich the logo in side is the difference betwen this and the "temple model", seems equals.;) ;) ;)

Stetson Sovereign. After buying one from a store across town, I developed a soft spot on my heart for Stetson Sovereigns. I bought this from fellow FL member StetsonHomburg. He had it packed and shipped out immediately. This is a great hat! I'm fixin' to step out to the hardware store and pick up gardening supplies and am gonna' wear this hat...and I even found a feather for it. Thanks StetsonHomburg!:eusa_clap :eusa_clap

Nice color on that one, buler. I don't remember ever seeing a Stetson factory teardrop before -- interesting.

Cheers,

Super fine soft and light felt with plump Cavanagh Edge curled like a Homburg without the edge binding but shorter curled portion(just the edge up-turned-a pencil curl). Tall crown. Two interesting John Cavanagh Patents demonstrated. The clip at the rear seam and a removable leather sweatband(buttons sort of). Great shape except small moth holes under the sweatband edge at the base of the ribbon. Bullock & Jones San Francisco on the clip. More details to come.

Had two in recently, first a Christys Adventure in burma:

Really need to work on the crease, can't get it how I want it, but it has cemented my thought that this is my favourite hat colour.


Secondly, my first Panama, an Olney:

Quite pleased with this, but having got it a couple of days ago it is now raining so no chance to wear it as yet! Off camping for a few days next week, so I'm hoping the weather is good enough to bring it with me.

Really nice hats. And you look mighty cool under them.
My Stetson panama that I bought last year and have worn very little is so stiff that it has cracked at the top crease and now has a small hole there. Not too noticible, but still...
And as a personal note, I hate the cloth sweatband. I have to jam the hat down over my ears so I look like a Bruce Willis wannabe, or it just keeps working its way up until it threatens to leave my noggin. Sorry, Stetson. My Saxon is really of good quality, fits great and looks great too, lbut that paname...Mm, mm, mm... [huh]

A mere 1-5/8"brim with a Cavanagh Edge. Usual Cavanagh fantastic felt quality. Color really has more brown/green overtones like Khaki.
