    @Deadly - Thanks! I'll see if I can dig up the thread on dating this particular model. I agree that the hat might be salvageable. Since I already make custom hats and do renovations (I haven't had this one in my hands yet to make any serious determinations) my concern is more on the lines of...

UN-official Texas Ranking Formal Dress - NEW Cattleman (Color - Silver Belly usually, but heck, it don't REALLY matter none) Semi-formal - Seldom Wore...

    Wearing hats: Then vs. now

    I've been lucky enough to work on a few sets during shoots for HBO's Deadwood back a few years ago. My personal experience is that a lot depends on the actor and what the director wanted to go with. I'm not going to drop names but several of the "primary" cast members I worked with used their...

    Post New Hats Here!

    Just finished a 100% Beaver Fedora this weekend and used a Navy Blue grosgrain ribbon that was as old as I am! I love using older materials when I build a hat!!

    Hatters beware! American hatter threatens to sue over matches behind the ribbon!

    My trip to JW Hats for Mentoring and Hat making

    I cringe a bit each time I read of another craftsman no longer around. The trade seems to shrink a bit more with each person's passing. R.I.P.

    Best place to reattach sweatband on Stetson?

    Agreed! When I find a hat making situation that stumps me, Art has always given me excellent, credible advise.
