Hats and Drinks - A Match Made in Heaven
Nice! I've never had their whiskey, but I really liked their gin! Their beers are pretty good, I agree! Some are definitely hit or miss, but that's just the nature of experimenting. Was pretty cool to sit in their little beer room, watching them can beer while enjoying a drink! It's a must see...- FunnelVission

Photographs Of Hats Fresh From Surviving The Elements
The rain has been awesome! Our creek had run dry, and our pastures looked so sad. This was just going out to use the restroom, maybe a minute or two in the rain lol. Nice rolling thunder for background music.- FunnelVission

What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?
Brought my Gannon to the Oregon coast, and Oregon Coast Aquarium for my Mother's birthday! Perfect day for felt, nice 60F weather and sunny.- FunnelVission

Western, anyone?
Very interesting! I'm kind of surprised the felt was thinner, especially given the greater abundance of fur bearers (and lack of regulations for taking said fur bearers). I suppose it had something to do with the felting process, and lack of modern machinery to assist in the process. So would a...- FunnelVission

Western, anyone?
Makes sense. Also keeps things interesting! Wasn't the origin of hat creases just a result of use, with the whole deliberately placing specific creases thing, relatively new? If so, it makes sense that the naming scheme would be very fast and loose. Early hatters could pretty much call the...- FunnelVission

Oh yeah, it's a bit like the tarantula and reptile world, only those have the ability to use the animal's Latin name to avoid confusion. Makes things confusing sometimes haha. This chart is from Stalker Hat's website and the Tom Mix, Montana, and Packer shown on this chart, all look fairly...- FunnelVission

Ah, I'd heard Gus crease and Montana crease used synonymous lol. Also seen it refered to as a varient of the bullrider style. On the subject of the Gus crease, had my silverbelly hat turn dirt tan today. Dusty out in the vinyard today! Picture is after blowing off most of it...- FunnelVission

Don't know why I only just realized it, but I love that you have a Montana crease on a hat made in Montana!- FunnelVission

Portland Rain
In my experience that 1/4" does make a difference. When I got the open road I had been wearing a cheap wool hat that has a 3" brim, and it does a much better job. So I thought "Oh it's only 1/4" shorter, should still work just as well right?" Then I wore it in the rain, and nearly had a...- FunnelVission

Portland Rain
Hello! I live South in Molalla, and the 6x OR was my first fur felt hat. I found, while it kept my head dry, it did nothing to keep my face dry (and I wear glasses so this was especially annoying). The brim is just too short to stop anything but directly vertical rain. The hat itself did great...- FunnelVission

Thanks! I like both my 6Xs. The open road is definitely thinner than the Gus, but it's a dressier hat so that's to be expected I guess. They both do well in the rain, although the open road doesn't really do much to keep you from being rained on too (which is why I got the Gus. I didn't realize...- FunnelVission
