    Stetson Clear Beaver Quality XXXXXXX (7X) size 7 ⅛

    What is this hat?

    What is this? Can anyone ascertain that this hat is a Stetson or is it a Beaver Brand Hat? Is it vintage? Is it a Bowler? What is this thing? :p I emailed the seller, but he doesn't know. He bought it at an estate auction. The box says Stetson . . . what say you? :)

    Stetson felt quality: "Royal Deluxe" and "3x Beaver"

    For many years Stetson produced dress fur felt hats designated as "Royal Deluxe" and "3x". I'd like to hear what others may know regarding the quality of the felt of each, and how the quality of the felt in these two compared to the other. I'm particularly interested in vintage hats. Thanks!

    Stetson No. 1 Quality

    When I opened the box and took out this hat, I thought there must have been some mistake. It is absolutely jet black and looks as if it was made earlier this month and shipped to me by a custom hatter. No kidding, it looks like an absolutely brand new hat. So much so, in fact, that I thought...
