Give the cattleman a little time before abandoning it. It seems appropriate for the hat. You might try playing with it some, lowering the center crease a bit or moving the dents fore and aft a smidge might change your perspective. Many seem uncomfortable with the cattleman crease w/o ever giving it much of a shot. Look at all the diamond creased OR's out there. Most didn't come that way.I’m still not entirely comfortable in a cattleman crease and may well change it on this hat.
