Post New Hats Here!

Bailey 8X. New old stock:

Funky liner unlike anything else that I have. The hat was what I was expecting which is a victory all on its own when buying on eBay. It was a two hat deal and I’ll post the second tomorrow. These photos are in my office parking lot at the end of a very long week. Even when work beats me up I find enjoyment in a new hat. Hat therapy?

I like it. Looks like you're ready to bulldog steers.

I’m not sure what that means but thank you?

Rodeo, sliding down off of a running horse onto a steer and wrestle him to the ground. Nothing to it!

Just arrived. In need of some cleaning & shaping.

Love that style of hat. Congrats Jack!

I’ll take a pass. I worked a long time to get a soft desk job to ride out the remainder of my career. I don’t think my wife would approve anyway and we both know what that means.

Don't blame you. I'm just a spectator myself.

Resistol 4X in dark grey arrived today. The fate of this one is still up in the air. I just converted a 3X to a fedora that is the exact color so that’s out. I’m going to try a kettle curl brim. No idea what crease it will end up with but I want it to stay western but not a cattleman’s crease. Maybe once I start manipulating the felt I’ll me what it wants.

That is really nice! Doesn't look like it needs much.

Lots of potential. You start with nice felt and go from there.

I think I'll just steam it & go over it with a hat sponge to clean it. Then shape it up. I don't like doing the gas bath thing.

I was going to bid against you on that one, Jack! Glad I didn't. What a fantastic old hat!

I went back and got a summer straw from a local shop today, a $10 vented parabuntal that has been sticking in my head for several weeks now.

Also picked up a couple on ebay, a sweet, soft velour Tonak and my first Open Road, a Royal Stetson with a great hand.

Yee-haww!

Three nice catches. Is the OR from the 50s? That Tonak is a beast!

Yee-Haww indeed. Don't see many westerns on your head, is this a new trend?

Woot! Congrats on them all!
