That is one nice Marathon.
Nice one, Don!
Good looking Penny's Don. It suits you we'll.
Are you any good at dating Penny's? With the lack of plastic tip liner, I wonder if this is from early on after they changed the logo - very late forties or early fifties maybe? (I actually haven't done any research on dating Marathons and am not even sure when they changed the logo).

This morning my hat of choice is this Grey Heather sold by Delion in Paris, France. Peeking at the tag under the sweatband it appears to have been made by Mossant. Overall the hat is very well made. I especially like how the liner has an iridescent hue to it and changes from a deep blue to a fabulous purple color when the light hits it. I tried to capture this in the pictures best as I could.

From the first time I saw Justified I always admired Raylan's hat. I ordered this way too long ago (Feb 2024) and it finally arrived Christmas Eve. I've learned a ton about hats since I first ordered this, but I still think it is a great looking hat

It is a 6X Stetson that Knudsen Hats shaped to replicate the Justified Hat. Not the best ordering experience, but in the end the hat is OK
Thanks Don...that Stetson Fifteen you shared with us is very nice too !That is sweet Timmy!
First time I've seen you in a Western style hat and you wear it well !!From the first time I saw Justified I always admired Raylan's hat. I ordered this way too long ago (Feb 2024) and it finally arrived Christmas Eve. I've learned a ton about hats since I first ordered this, but I still think it is a great looking hat

Nice hat !! I've seen other Stetsons with the B designation ( Stratoliner B, etc) and always wondered what the "B" is all about ? Anybody know ?Heading out for the last Dr appt for 2024 in a little Stetson Royal Deluxe Roadster B. For a modest, modern hat its actually one of my favorite "running around" hats
Wishing a safe and enjoyable New Years Eve to all! See Y'all in 2025

Nice one, Timmy.Gray and gloomy day here @ Rock Bottom and I am probably not going out today however that doesn't mean I will be hatless.
Imperial Stetson with Ultimate Finish is my lid for puttering around the house today. Originally sold by Henry the Hatter in Detroit, Michigan.
* I hope everyone has a safe New Year's Eve. Looking forward to a new year of hats !!
