Just getting this new black Resistol that I bought last summer broke in. 2 1/2" cut down brim and funky ribbon hat band.

Does anyone have any experience or comments regarding this Stetson West Bound B?

Only that I think it's a cool modern take on the western hat and I've talked myself down from the ledge twice (like, I went as far as "add to cart") on the black one. I suspect the felt would be firmer than their average dress weights, but royal deluxe is the same grade as the premier strats.

I’ve been hoping that someone would buy one and post photos here so I could see it in the wild. I do wish the crown was taller.

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.
