It is the only part of the hat that touches you and a really beautiful sweatband touches you in more ways than one. I could say more, but a picture is worth a thousand words. Share photos of your favorites here.

Here is one of mine that isn't really very artistic but is at least reasonably rare. It also happens to be the only sweatband picture I have easy access to at the moment!

Mike, that is a very unique hat you have there! Very nice. A number of years ago I went quail hunting on the LBJ ranch and stayed in one of the ranch houses. Unbelievable memorabilia in that house.
