The Stratoliner Society {VINTAGE}
I too am folically challenged :) Growing up here in Texas, I saw far more center dent/front /side pinched hats and so that's been my main influence. Was the style of creases my father had in his hats so I quess I'm "like father, like son" in that way :) Western hats, especially with the... -

NICE, NICE looking set of Strats !! Since youv'e got them all with the de rigeur crease of Arkansas looks like you'll need to move down there :) -
I love the Fed IV!!
Why would you put it in a suitcase to travel? It should be on your head! Yes you can recrease a hat if needs be. Stains ? If it's really a "stain" by definition, it won't come out, it will be "stained". Spots and dirt can be cleaned, some by you, some by a hatter. All of this depends on the... -

Art Fawcett VS Hall of Fame
I have had a similar experience with my Cattleman and one of my horses. It's taken two complete immersions in the stock tank at the stables thanks to one of my horses. Like you, I was able to re-set the crease and found if I gave it a good hard brushing just BEFORE it was totally dry it did not... -

Why not contact HIM first, BEFORE going on Facebook and seeing what HE thinks about this idea. Wouldn't hurt, would it :) -

Looks GOOD on ya John. Is that what they now call the Allessandria, "Trionfo" ? And did it come pre-creased? It looks good for sure :) -
Fedorafest III Stratoliner from Stetson
I agree, DO NOT include Major Moore in this. Doesn't matter all the work HE has done in this !! I keep forgetting we are in the 21st century and ALL is ok to do to get what we want :) -

Hat Storage
I have an old red oak Victorian hall tree that I restored and it has 6 cast metal hat hooks on it and a top shelf across the top of the mirror that I put my hats on. It's next to my front door so it's handy for going out and when I come in! I store my Panama's in hat boxes during felt season and... -
Fedoras and beards
That 'll teach ya not to wear your black frock coat and 3" brimmed Borso with a beard up your way :eusa_clap. For me, I've had a 'stach since 'nam back in '69 and when I grew a beard back in the late '70s it was a FULL Hemingway style of beard, not these 5 day growths that is being passed off as... -

Hat store experience
That was a Hat Store? One style of hat in 4 colors and NOTHING else? Sounds like a stretch of the definition of one to me! Sounds like you'd have better luck at the "hat dept" in a Wal-Mart or Target store !! Hat stores as they used to be had 100's of hats but sadly, that doesn't seem to be the... -

Recommendation for Outdoors Hat
Your looking at a hat that just gets worn with an occasional brushing from time to time. I have horses and this model has been my "barn" hat for a long time. I have added a Cattleman in Fawn as another "barn" hat this past year. Another 3 1/4" bound brim model which comes pre-creased. The... -
Recommendation for Outdoors Hat
Nice color for sure ! And with a 3 1/4" brim it would shade your face and shed lots of rain. Another model sold by David Morgan exclusivly here in the US is the Bushman that has a bound brin as well as being 3 1/4" wide and comes in an olive tan color called Nullabor Tan. I've had one for over... -
