Steston Open Road in straw

I've heard that, Doug, but haven't tried it yet!

hm. I just noticed that Hartford York/MensHats.com are offering a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a "Limited Edition" Stetson Open Road Straw for $250...

Hmmm...if someone gets one, please write a review. For that price, this has to be a panama (in my mind). Maybe I'll shoot an email/inquiry...

Ok, here is quick straw open road question. I really want an straw open road, but my head is a long oval. Would it be possible that a little steam could shape the hat to my head? Or am I just out of luck here.

Rick--I was just in Paris Hatters and asked about a hat that was in a glass case. It was the owner's dad's hat..a Monte Cristi in an Open Road style. If my size was a 6 7/8 I'd buy that Peter's Bros. hat. That is great looking.

As would I -were I microcephalic!

Panama OR from Meyer the Hatter. I like this one.
$250 seems high for a Shantung?

nice hat, Hatophile! Brown ribbon? Did you order or go to the store? Sam Meyer is a funny man--he has a story for everything!

Hi Doug,

Ordered online. Despite my location notation on my avatar, I am actually in NE Ohio. I got the hat about 3 days after ordering. It does have a brown ribbon.
