    Looking for info on this vintage Resistol hat

    I have limited knowledge of Resistol's, so take this with a grain of salt. I figured one of the experts would have chimed in by now. I think you're probably close in your estimation of age, maybe into the 70's. It's definitely a western/cowboy hat. The brim appears to be over 3' and it's creased...

    Yep, and a quick search will show you that the Knox 25 has only been mentioned around here a couple of times. That's rarefied air.

    The Open Road Guild

    You're absolutely right and it is a nice hat. I have several that are very similar, just older. Also, yours appears to be a unique gray as opposed to the more common SB that mine are. That's just one of the things that makes your hat unique. The other is the three ply ribbon. That's very...

    The Open Road Guild

    In what way? I’ve seen your other posts as well. You know that it’s not an OR and neither was Oppenheimer’s hat but that’s beside the point. Your hat is a decent looking 3X Beaver but it leans more to the modern side of Stetson production, not a particularly popular era around here, at least in...

    DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects

    Golfer Chi Chi Rodriquez has passed at age 88. Probably made more famous by Les Nessman than brandishing his putter like a sword.

    Vintage? Reebok High Top

    Great to see these still being made. Wore out several pair. Used to be a constant in another life when a go bag was a constant. Edit: could have done w/o the flashback.

    Stetson hat

    Probably late 70's into the 80's. Made before they switched to a dual metric/US sizing. Also, it's stamped 3X 'Beaver' which means it has 'some' beaver in the felt whereas the current 3X does not. It's a decent entry level hat in good shape. Couldn't make out the stain you were speaking of but...
