Since your always complaining about the short brims Joao, I just might have found one for you. How about a 7" brim??





I am not quite sure you could walk through a doorway with one, but I thought I might approve.:D

Doorway problem solved...

Neither do I. I think it's a bit too big. Might get one to cross the pond to visit USA ;)

Joao will be on that one in an instant :peace:

At this moment... no.

So much brim wasted... What's the practicality of it? To shade others and not yourself? Looks more a boat than a hat.

A western I got about a year ago from a fellow Lounger, the "Champ Western" that is.

Been trying different creases on this one. Not sure how it will end up, I want to keep it kind of quick and rough

4X but only $9.95? Not sure those X's are all that meaningful in this case. Still a good hat with a 3 inch brim. I'm getting there, Joao

I'm sure they were aiming at the Open Road market with this. Slightly different in that it has a ribbed ribbon around the crown and is more light grey than silverbelly. Similar dimensions to my early 3X Open Road.

New sweat, Old Stetson 3X with bound brim.

Just finished sewing in a new sweat I bought from Bond that was pre cut to size and with the ends sewn up. Really easy job to sew in, with a sewing machine needle, some quilting thread, and a couple punctured fingers! Really nice sweat, too. Soft and comfortable.
