The new Campdraft in "Sand" has become my favorite. It doesn't get too hot here and it rains a LOT. Straw is out of the question, even during High Summer. (I need to wax my moustache.)

I remember when you found that 3X, Nate and how tickled you were to have it.
You still are the ONLY lounger i EVER saw actually use the wind trolley in the wild.

I use wind cords a lot - they are an excellent invention!

I wore that 3X all the way around the world and then some. It even came with for my first section of the Appalachian Trail.

Alas, I cut my hair a few years back and now it doesn’t fit :(

Royal Stetson made under license in England, so by Failsworth of Manchester.

I truly believe this Manchester hatmaker were making a better Stetson hat than who ever it was who took over the Stetson name in the 60s.

That hat is a beauty!

From the photo, it is reminiscent of Stetson 20 felt. Can you say if it’s comparable?

Or does it just look that way to me because I’m waiting on my new 20 to arrive any minute?

It is a hat that really suits you, Steve. But then again.. there are not many hats that don’t! Whippet styling and proportions?
