Straw hat with green insert.

[rgraham]

Does anyone know if someone still makes a straw hat that has the green plastic insert on the brim. They were like a fedora or cowboy type hat from the 40s or 50s. Maybe even the 60s. The plastic part of the brim would be over the eyes. I've looked online, but don't know if I'm giving this hat the right name in the search window. If nothing else, does anyone remember what I'm talking about?

Yep... Stutzmans Headwear in Worthington IN has one with the green visor at the price of $8.95 model # 1026R [without shipping] with a 3 1/2 inch brim.

looks kinda like this one {but with a 3 1\2 inch brim}

My dealings with the fine folk a Stutzmans is give them a holler and they will work with you on brim width and such. Nice folks and very nice straw hats.

My Daddy had one. My Mother hated it. I think it's still in a closet at my Georgia house. Are they coming back in style?

Oh yeah, that's the one. It was worn by old dudes. Not sure if it's coming back in style, which of course makes it even better.

I have a couple of this type hat, but without the green visor.
Really good for knocking around in and such.

There is an "old dude" that i often see not too far from my house wearing one when he mows his yard.lol

I doubt that you'd see many real cowboys in a hat like this. However, they were easy to find at Farm Bureaus, Feed Stores, or any farm equipment store. My Grandfather always wore one while driving his tractor. Guess my Grandmother thought it was sexy.

RBH, You get to have a green visor when you join the "old dudes" club.

I have seen those in Tractor Supply in Texas and Louisiana. I cannot remember the price, but they were cheap.
