This is a rare brand in a rare size in a popular style.
I picked this up a few weeks ago and I've decided to pass it on. The main reasons I'm not keeping it are that I have too many SB OR style hats and this has a smaller brim than I like for this style of hat. I've recreased it dry from a cattleman crease to a fedora pinch but didn't steam or wet it so it should pop back to a cattlemans crease and leave little sign of the fedora crease.
Condition: The hat is a bit dirty (I've brushed it but there is some deeply set in dirt/stains) and could use a cleaning or could be used as is with its "character". The sweatband is brittle and has some cracks. I've treated it with a bit of shea butter and some lexol. Even after treating it's still a bit brittle so it probably needs some more care.
I don't have the hat in front of me for measurements right now but I would guess that the brim is approximately 2.5"-2 5/8" as it's significantly smaller than an Akubra Campdraft. I'll post measurements later.
If you're not in the USA PM me and I'll see what shipping would be.
