The Stetson ROYAL OPEN ROAD

[Bob Roberts]

Aw, come on, Bob. There's always room for brown.

I'm all over the brown spectrum but don't have that brown BROWN color, so I guess your right... for the right hat at the right price, I'll make room for brown.

 

[Bob Roberts]

What can brown do for you?

I'm kinda with Bob, I seem to have amassed a few extra brown lids. What I'd like to find is some of those vintage hats with interesting colors, like creams and different shades of blue. I know there are more than brown and gray. Need more greens and maybe something like a brick or wine.

Thereyago. A brick Open Road in Royal Deluxe quality with an open crown.

That would be nice!

Chocolate brown (Big Country), "Cordova" brown (Stagecoach), 052 brown (20x beaver), unknown brown (EC) ... lol

I, personally, would be all over a green OR. Still love my 3X Silverbelly though.

 

[Joao Encarnado]

You can always try to die your silverbelly with green

I'm liking a DEEP forest/moss green.

I have a dark moss custom that I love

It has the same distentions as the regular Open Road. It is made out of dress felt instead of western felt so it is softer

I've often though about acquiring an "LBJ" hat so earlier this morning I pulled the trigger on the Delmonico site for an Open Road in silver belly made from "Royal Quality" fur felt. I gave some consideration to the caribou color but decided that I've got too many brown hats, besides which silver belly is more versatile; it's been a while since I've seen a photo of President Johnson but I seem to recall that he famously wore silver bellies, so what the heck.

The Royal OR version is said to have a nice soft body & comes with an interesting pin in the hat band.

As a Delmonico email subscriber, I was able to take advantage of their current 15% coupon code savings. That sure helped defray the postage to Canada.

Once I've taken delivery I'll post my comments.

Thanks viclip. Interested in hearing your report. My local hatter has a few, but I've not handled one.

Would love to see dove grey and cadet blue colors come back to Stetson offerings. Just don't need another brown Open Road. An black is not a color I will ever wear in a hat tried it still don't wear the hat.
