Western, anyone?

[Tukwila]

A simple hat for today, interesting in its look back to an older era. This is an early 20th century western hat of modest dimensions (depth 6 1/4", brim 3", 2 1/2" curled) and modest price that came to me in very fine condition. No idea what techniques were used in the The Fray sweatband, but each example I have owned has a good century of life left in it. This hat is a 6 7/8. I don't wear it very often, but with a little careful coaxing, I've found it comfortable for a week after a close haircut.

Scrumptious!

You fella's seen the flick with Kevin Costner : Open Range
He wears one similar but in brown/tawny shade.

What a killer lid DH

Thank you. I like to mix it up. Diversity can be a lot of fun. And feel free to call me Brent if you want.

Thanks, Ed. Your brim curling gave me the confidence to try it myself.

I don't know how often I'd get away with wearing a true western like this, but I've always had a profound love for this hat.

Check out TJ's version in the Conversion thread. Excellent!

That was a very good movie and the hat got my attention all throughout the flick!

I dig the rattlesnake hat band! Ever since I was a kid I've thought those things were cool. Great hat for it, too.

Resistol 3X. This was an early attempt at a Desert Dog brim curl that was only partially successful.
