This Stetson I rolled with just my hands. I had to get the edges pretty wet then just went around and around just rolling and bending the edge. Came out pretty well.Still trying to figure out a crown crease for this Borsa. I'm steering away from the Cattleman and leaning toward my preferred old school Montana Pinch crease. This is just a dry run. I haven't set the crease or did anything else with it yet. I'm still trying to decide. Can't really see the crease that well in these pictures...
That looks really good Bob. Nice job!
Looks great Bob!
Thank you Greg.
Thanks Bob.
Looks good, CS. You did a good job on it. I like that. I've concluded that my Borsa has too little brim to suit me to be a Western and too much brim to suit me for a fedora. This hat is going on my head one way or another! After wrestling with myself over cutting the brim and losing the edge treatment, I've decided I'm going to do it and trim the brim to 2 3/4 and fedoratize it! I don't like the idea of losing the edge treatment but at least it will be more to what I want when I'm finished.
Yes, I have long coveted owning a vicuna coat but have yet to ever even touch one. So I thought I would start out modestly by owning a Llama hat!!!
Winner, Winner!!
What a good looking hat! The band really does it more justice. Great looking vest also!
What a great find! That is a beauty!
May I suggest a center dent with pinches? Always seems to look good as a dress western. The Montana pinch is more of a working cowboy crease. Greg @ Bamaboots has a no1 in the perfect dress western crease, give it a look. Either way I'm sure it will turn out tits!

Thank you Ddog. I actually tried a Center Dent this morning. I'm definitely keeping my options open. This Borsa's a real nice hat and I want to make sure I make the right decision for myself before I go forward on it. I'm still open to suggestions.
