It's just like everyone says about the 100,soft and smooth as a baby's butt,but fairly stiff.

Lovely hat in a good home !
That's one heck of a nice hat. I wasn't going to buy any more Stetsons, but that one would be an exception if I saw it for sale. It will really be recognized as a Stetson when you wear that one.Dinerman said:And here's the hat that's even nicer than the Stetson 100. I don't think I've seen any of these before.
Interesting that the sweatband logo is still using the stars version.

jimmy the lid said:I'm curious about the vintage on the Stetson 150. I generally associate the plain medallion on the liner tip (without an identifier like "Stetson 100") with more recent Stetsons. Same goes for the medallion on the sweat that is upright, rather than sideways.
That being said, since you're the one with the hat in your hands, D-man -- do you have a take on the vintage?
And, regardless of vintage, how does the 150 compare with any Stetson 100's you have experienced?
Cheers,

Dinerman, Beautiful hat!
Yoder's Deutsch House = Yum, Yum!!!!W4ASZ said:Ganz richtig, mein Herr !
It's always corrupted as "Dutch" from "Deutsch." Our Mennonite buddies here are of German extraction, naturlich, and boy can the ladies bake !!!

Lefty said:Having never handled an AB of any kind, are you saying that Marc's finish is as nice as a 100 or 7xCB? If so, that's pretty amazing. From what I've seen, his work is great, but I had no idea it was on that level.
