What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

STETSON (7X) BEAVER COWBOY HAT - SIZE 7 1/4 RANCHER OPEN ROAD ORIGINAL BOX | eBay

Condition: Pre-owned, used, and worn by the West Texas Rancher in a town of Ralls, Texas many years ago. Hat needs to be cleaned, has stains on both interior and exterior. Hat box has broken leather strap-tie.

Got another late 40s 7XCB about a month ago, and this week finished a full resto including a reblock in record time. You can see by the listing pics that even the stubborn verdigris stain came out. Mostly. Usually it doesn’t at all. Had some serious sweat stains in the front too. Wasn’t able to reuse the original 3/8 ribbon as the sweat stains didn’t budge an inch. For this hat I like this 1” even better though.

Nice 15, RC! Is it a Dallas?
I’ve fairly recently received a “The Dallas” Twenty I’m working on right now. Been hoping to find one for years.

I do love that ribbon on it. I may have to change one of my OR to that. Very nice.

Had to take a trip to get a new water heater for our glampsite. Did so under a silver label Light-Lee.

Thanks, Story!
This one only took 5 days start to finish.
Having hurricane Debbie lock you down with wind and rain for 3 straight days helps.

One upside I guess, I hope you didnt have any damage from the storm.

Wore my Shudde Bros. 7X today, it was a little warm but I'm enjoying it just the same. Photobombed by the dog. Any help on rough age on this one? 80s?

It wasn’t a bad storm. This time.
The worse things that happened in my neck of the swamp was drowned frogs and soggy crawfish.

Man that black hat’s a good look.
Makes me wanna break out in song:
“Cowboys ain’t easy to love and harder to hold. They’d rather give you song than diamonds or gold.”
Okay, Story, your turn. Do Willie!

Is it a Dallas?

I see no markings indication Dallas on the hat or under the sweatband...

It is a nice hat for sure though

Absolutely GORGEOUS coloring on that one, Steve!

Hückel Weilheim "Chevreau", mid 1950s. Overall it's really great. I found this Soft Felt back in 2011.

This is what the Liner logo originally looked like. Unfortunately the stamp cut into the plastic so eventually expanded. As far as I know only Hückel Weilheim stamped the Liner logo onto the protective plastic.

The original exterior Paper Size tag came with the Hat.

Another absolute stunner!!!!

This morning I chose something a little different, an uptown cowboy hat if you will. Stetson 3X Beaver Quality Eddie Bauer in Saddle Brown with tone on tone brim edge binding and braided leather hatband. I really like the silhouette of this one !
