Thank you! That's a good looking hat

Greetings All:
Hey Rogera, here’s one that’s not a true sweat stamped OR but it looks just like an OR to me except for the “no bow” ribbon. Brim is 2 3/4”, marked Genuine Panama sweat. Light, comfy and breathes well. Hope that helps.
Be well. Bowen.
Great looking brim! It fits you well. I have two Campdrafts, one deluxe, in moonstone. I am very happy with mine and wear them a lot. Welcome aboard! A lot of good people and information here.Greetings. I just joined the forum recently to learn more about the Akubra Campdraft Deluxe, as my sons ordered one for me as a birthday present. It should be here by the end of this week.
Here is a shot my older son took the other day of me wearing my 4X Open Road that I bought in Arizona in 1985.

wonderful piece Rick ... enviousRoyal Stetson Open Road
Sweat has some deterioration but the felt is sublime. Liner clean as a whistle.

sweat doesn't look too bad to meThanks Ant! As a collector I was a bit disappointed in the conditions the sweat, but the felt is unlike most any Royal Stetsons that I have handled. Extremely light and pliable.
Not too much. Think I may attach some cloth tape behind the weaker spots to bolster it up a bit to ensure it will not split further. Arrived intact but dry. Added a light touch of Lexol and the darn thing fell apart on me. I felt sick but it would have happened no matter what. Regardless, I do have another hat or two!sweat doesn't look too bad to me
not like something that will worsen anyway
love that hat
Yes, easily reshaped & mine look to be 5 1/2 to 5 3/4 inches.Is it easy to reshape the crowns on the new Stetson Royal DeLuxe Open Roads? Does anyone know what the open crown height is? Thanks in advance.
From a late 50's early 60's Stetson Western Catalog....THEY SHORTENED THE BRIM!!!!
PS From what I can tell that short brim OR did not last long...
