These are some great looking conversions gentlemen! I just got word today that Art is done with my Resistol conversion. I have a black Resistol western I used to wear back in my rodeo days and had Art reshape it similar to his Uptown hat. Adding a navy blue ribbon and brim binding. I can't wait to get my mitts on it. Art was having a tough time of it with the Resistol because of the felt memory and the stiffness. The last time I had that hat reblockes by an outfit in Wyoming, they put so much stiffener in it Odd Job could have used it as a weapon.
Here's a couple of before shots with some afters coming by the end of the week.
Here are some shots of my Stetson reshaped by Art a while back. I think he did a fantastic job of it. It was another rodeo hat that started as a Stetson Low Places hat (similar to Garth Brook's hat) but got punched up into the before photo. A job I did myself back in the day.
Then I had Art trim the brim & reblock the crown open & add a new ribbon. Now I can wear them again instead of letting them sit in a closet in a box.
Cheers!
Dan
