What about the Filson tin cloth hats?
I love this hat! I have a similar beater that I wouldn't trade for anything, just because of the memories.My 'rain' hat is an old Miller navy blue that I got back in 1980. It's seen more downpours than I can count. Whenever it's raining and I have to be outside, this is on my head. I can't remember what color the ribbon band used to be...am thinking it was black. I had a new sweatband put in it last year and the guy at Peter Bros in Fort Worth offered to replace the band and give the hat a good clean up. But I declined and asked him to keep the mojo intact.
What do you use as a rain hat in Oroville? Right now I bet you use a Panama!I love this hat! I have a similar beater that I wouldn't trade for anything, just because of the memories.
If it were to rain now, I'd use the same rain hat, my old Banjo Paterson. . But yes, it's hot and dry here now.What do you use as a rain hat in Oroville? Right now I bet you use a Panama!
I used to live there a long time ago, and it could get really hot in the summer!If it were to rain now, I'd use the same rain hat, my old Banjo Paterson. . But yes, it's hot and dry here now.

That’s a nice looking hat. How do you like it? Have you had a chance to use it in the rain?I ended up getting a Banjo Patterson. I found the slightly lower crown much less intimidating...
You won't be sorry.I ended up getting a Banjo Patterson. I found the slightly lower crown much less intimidating...
Sorry, but I'm coming in on the middle of this conversation: to what other hats were you contrasting the Banjo's crown? A comparable hat might be the CD, but that one's an open crown and you can adjust it to whatever height you like, which is something that I like to have the option to do.I ended up getting a Banjo Patterson.

I didn't feel comfortable doing my own bash and the other Akubra I tried had higher crowns. They were the Traveller & Adventurer.
