rogerstg, hatophile, thank you. rogerstg, I knew I had someone to blame! I've been gooning over this hat for some time before I pulled the trigger. I'll have plenty of opportunities to wear it. Summer doesn't end down here till October.

Been wanting a green hat for a long time. Today I got one.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say this hat is from 1965, as that would be Stetson's 100th anniversary. It's got a felted edge, too. (Don't know what Stetson called their version of the cavanagh edge)

Dale's been wanting a green hat (nice find!), and I've been wanting a grey vintage straw. Found this one on eBay and took the risk on a 2" brim. I was tapping my inner Charlie (hatsRme) on this one, except that the ribbon was a bit of a mess, so it's a simple black one for now.

First off, boy what a difference the vintage straw is from the modern stuff. This feels so good in the hand and comfortable on the head. The sweat and straw are like new. This will be a fun hat to wear.

Finding the JJ Hat Center tag was a nice bonus.
