The Eastwood is a nice hat. However it is not in next falls line-up along with the Roadster and Emmett. That is why some may have it on close out. We order enough that Stetson will make hats for us not in the catalog. We will still have the Roadster and have not made up our minds on the other two.

Any thoughts on the Stetson Eastwood? I've seen them for close to $110 on various sites.

Hey Jeff,
Remember the Road Master? It was an Open Road, basically, out of "Natural" felt.
Is it gone forever?

If Akubra won't accomodate a Fedora Lounge special run, how about Hatco/Stetson?
I'm thinking in terms of the new Premiere lines of Strats & Stetsonians, perhaps a run in a special hat/ribbon color combo...

I like that navy colored Strat with cream ribbon, or the dark brown OR with lighter ribbon, RClark got those at the Outlet.

It never hurts to ask. All they can do is day no.

I'd be interested in virtually any non-standard colour scheme. Hatophile has shown interest. Let's see if anyone else jumps in...

Jeff ~ can you provide some idea as to minimum number required for a special run?

I'd be in on just about any variation of the new Strat. I've seen a warm grey/taupe color with a silverbelly ribbon work in vintage Strats that's nice too.

I'm afraid these will only be around for a while so I don't want to regret passing on a great color combo.

This is the ticket for me. The gray goes well with so many options and I have plenty of brown hats.
