What is the best course of action for removing/killing mold that has taken hold on a fur felt hat? Currently trying to perform a rescue on two Resistol Stagecoachs that were exposed to water for several days. As of this writing, I have the afflicted party drying out on the carpet a little ways...
I am not very active in this community anymore. So as it was, I only stumbled into the absolutely abysmal 5-Star thread here AFTER seeing this thread first. So when I asked the question, I had little understanding of the change of heart that seems to be common consensus now.
From the sound of...
I think this has answered the questions I had about the fit of the Japanese Aeros. I too am a 37" chest, and I'm used to American 38s being bigger than I like. I see the 36s come up on eBay often, so I've been tempted. But it sounds like I'll hold out for a 38!
I realize this is an old thread, but I stumbled in here and couldn't manage to keep my jaw off the floor.
Ton, you did outstanding work with this pattern. That is one of the most beautiful presentations I have seen.
I have a question - is the "Californian" model currently offered on 5*'s...
I was extremely disappointed to find out that Bronson's B-10 has been apparently discontinued. When I inquired to the company directly, they responded that they had no intention of restocking. :confused:
So I now find myself on the market for a B-10 from elsewhere. I have looked The reason I...
Maybe it's the whiskey talking, but I'm half-tempted to just buy one of these things and see what it looks like in person.

This vest pops up on my eBay feed ALL the flubbing time.
Obviously some sort of generic China factory piece, since...
Good advice Belfastboy. That method sounds like a pain but I am glad at least to hear it is something that works (?). I just might try it! Thank you for the reply.
I am becoming frustrated. I have a collection of Resistol Stagecoach westerns. The felt on these old hats is great - I have several - but the black one (and only the black one) insists on running dye whenever it gets stuck in the rain. The others can be soaked in rain or shower-reshaped at whim...
Yamahana, you delivered! Thank you for posting pics of your hats.
I was hoping for one of the models with the 4 1/2 in. brim but the Brazos and Big Bend are both beauties.
What would you consider a reasonable offer for either?
Been wearing a pair of Stagecoaches as my everyday work hats on ranches and farms the last several years. Have become so attached to them I've decided I want to continue the collection.
Google searching for these rare hats for sale led me to a thread here, and I've learned that several members...
I have an Akubra Squatter that I would let go for pretty cheap. It is a 7 1/8 with a 3 in. brim, crown ain't that high but if you were gonna convert the wide brim down to 2 1/4 that would give you a lot more to work with.
Good old Akubra felt - rabbit fur, I think it's nice.
