What a completely cool hat (and boots)!

 

[FedOregon]

Well, we got stuff done around the house, then out to run errands.... then off to see Hidden Figures (good movie!). I brought out the Royal Stetson. I gave it some steam last night to work on the front snap brim, tighten the front pinch and lengthen those side dents. I doubt this one has been worn much, and with the front brim up when it was. Triple stitch overwelt; my first back-bow lid. MrsFed wore her stingy brim Stetson Royal Deluxe.

I imagine this is the first drop of rain this Stetson has seen in a ling time, if ever it has...

We love our hats!

I'm very impressed with the felt on this hat, and it is definitely not lacking in crown height. Just a few stains on the hat that seem to be a little stubborn, but other than that I couldn't be more pleased.

Nice hat! I'd never heard of Morrison Hats before.

Very nice , i like the style from the 30´s. Is this a Austrian hat ?

Thanks! I believe it's German but no company mark. It has some primitive construction elements but has great form and tissue like felt (weighs 84 grams). Here you can see more.

That ribbon makes a real statement Moe! I like it.

Thanks Red!
It originally had a brown ribbon when I found it, but I put on a blue one when I refurbed it a while back and just liked the look.

Nice hat. I think that is the first Morrison I've seen mentioned here. My first hat of modern times was a Morrison. It has a 2 1/4" overwelt brim. And is currently awaiting a new ribbon. I always thought it was a nice hat and was kind of puzzled that more of them aren't seen around here.

I just voted that my favorite hat of yours! Jodhpur's not to shabby either.

That is a pretty amazing hat. And I feel my boot envy warming up too. Good look all around.

Thanks Michael! I honestly had never heard of them before seeing this hat. However, I am more than impressed with the quality of this hat. Do you have any idea if they were available nationally or was Morrison a regional manufacturer?

Love that back bow Doug! The color is really clean looking, a light tan or grey?

This is a cool find! The lines are just right. Good luck on the little stains. The hat still looks good.

I really had no luck at all finding out about the company. Mine had the same logo on the liner and the same Morrison stamp on the sweat, but it wasn't a Famous 15. There was no store stamp. I wonder if it was a private label hat for a Morrison stores? I think I found only one other example that had sold in that area of time, about 5 years ago. Mine had obviously seen a lot of wear judging by the sun fading, but the felt is still in excellent condition. I really need to get a ribbon and put it back into service. I always enjoyed wearing it.
