RIATA (Red Is Always The Answer)!I've always wanted a hat with a red liner...
That hat is terrific, I love it! I'm so excited for my Gannon, hopefully in December.New hat day! 100% beaver in dark moss. The open crown is 6 3/8 inches and the brim is 3 1/8 inches. The crown ribbon is 22 ligne in ashen green. The binding 9 ligne and also in ashen green. The crown is very thin and easily creased and the brim is firmer, but not too stiff. The whole hat is expertly pounced and has a great hand.

I couldn’t be more pleased with how this hat turned out. I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to get a dark moss from Gannon.

Is this a Highwayman?View attachment 463817
Gannon Steel beaver
No, it is just a regular snap brim. I think it is 2 3/4" wide. Steel beaver with navy ribbons.Is this a Highwayman?
Looks great! Did you get it open crown?No, it is just a regular snap brim. I think it is 2 3/4" wide. Steel beaver with navy ribbons.
I sometimes have trouble getting the dimensions I want from dress weight felt supplied by Winchester. Western weight felt is an option, but it’s often very stiff and not what I want. Michael Gannon and I were exchanging messages and this new-to-me information was shared:
“Winchester also makes a 6oz hat body that is kind of in between dress weight and western weight but the brims are not as wide as a western hat body, I think the max brim width for those with your crown height and size would be 3 1/4" - 3 1/2".”
This 6oz felt really intrigues me. I’m looking to give one a try when I get back to the top of the queue. Has anyone else had any experience with this 6oz felt?
Please tell us more about the hat specifications. The felt looks like a heather, is it rabbit, etc.
It’s the all natural beaver in 100X or whatever it was back in 2016 or so when I ordered it. These pics are probably slightly under exposed for color due to the bright lights & white countertop. Sorry for the confusion.Please tell us more about the hat specifications. The felt looks like a heather, is it rabbit, etc.
Looks great and I am sure you will get many years of enjoyment out of it.
I had the same thought....it looked like a heathered felt that had been pounced a bit.Please tell us more about the hat specifications. The felt looks like a heather, is it rabbit, etc.
