Four Excellent Quality "High Crown" Stetson Whippets are avaliable. Factory creased and blocked on a wide oval block to give them their unique crown profile. These will be offered exclusively only to the Asian market this fall/winter. They were designed by Matt Deckard based on his own personal hat that when seen by Stetson asked him to design for production. This block was the first new block formed/molded and produced by Stetson (specifically for this hat) in 30 years. Size available is only 7 and 1/4. In "Phantom Grey." Sale price $124.00.
Ask Candy for details if interested. Here's the hat for those who havnt seen it. View attachment 83432 View attachment 83433 View attachment 83434

Thanks Bob for sharing this for other loungers to see! I should of held off for a 7 1/4....I grabbed the 7 3/8 (only one available at the time) :)

Talked to Candy today, now I have a decision... The Stetson Whippets in phantom gray at Garland have two colors of ribbon. "Light and dark" per Candy. I'm leaning toward the light color combo, it is more casual looking for everyday wear. Bob's is the darker color I think. Ideas, preferences?

Of course, the hokey Stetson pin will be replaced with a vintage Mercedes Benz tri star pin.

That's a tough one, Mike. I think you win either way...

Yes, that is where I'm at. Calling Candy to order Monday morning. How is the felt/construction of yours, they look nice in the pictures?
Good call Mike! I totally agree that it is light all the way. An early Congratulations on your impending purchase. I called Candy today hoping they may have something in my size and sadly nothing of any interest. :( I have been drooling over that Whippet since you first posted it Bob. She told me she has been looking out for me so hopefully something may roll in.

Dark Mike is more elegant. No pin it is a little bit tacky
I like this Stetsdon but the shape is too much defined, a little bit too "mechanical"
