Western, anyone?

[1961MJS]

Called a Foreman or Ft Worth crease...very nice lid!

Hi

GENERALLY I hate modern (past 1960) cowboy hats, but for some weird reason I like the Fort Worth Crease and I ain't ever been there. The square top looks good or something.

Ready for the frontier. Modern Bailey, 7 1/8 LO, too small for me. This is my best "grit"...

A&A - I love the hat, but I think you'd do better cultivating a 1000 yard stare.

Noted!!

You should think about investing in a good old hat stretcher. I find that most quality hats will stretch 1-2 sizes safely when the leather is properly conditioned.

Bump, with a beautiful new to me Bandera 25 in a hard to find moss green. I love the high crown on this one. It does draw some attention.

Nice... I like your crease.

Here's a couple pics from a Country concert I went to this past weekend with my brother and some friends.

I'm wearing my late 50's Stetson 3X Beaver Cowboy Hat

That's a 50 gallon hat!

 

[Cattus Petasatus]

That's a 50 gallon hat!

Maybe 55 gallons!

How tall is that crown, RLK?

Robert, very nice!!!!

Amazing. Robert is trying so hard to keep his poker face, but his eyes are smiling! He's definitely not playing the dead man's hand.

 

[alanfgag]

Beautiful old western.

 

[suitedcboy]

I think Robert has the NSA looking for hats for him. Where do you come up with those gems?

 

[rlk]

Thanks to all.

Maybe 55 gallons!

How tall is that crown, RLK?

The crown is 7" high as creased.

Watch out for low branches

That's a very striking find. Not something I'd wear on this side of the pond, but beautiful nonetheless.

Nice one Robert!

Don't know if it's a original nor how old can it be.
