Three vintage Stratoliners, size 7-1/8

[VetPsychWars]

I have three vintage Stetson Stratoliners available. Prices do not include shipping.

Brown, pre-war. Recently cleaned and reblocked. Sweatband replaced. Lightweight felt, no liner, airplane pin. $200

Cadet Blue, post-war. Recently cleaned and reblocked. Original sweat and liner. Very rare color. Pin not included. $300

Blue-Grey, post-war. Nearly NOS. Reblocked. Original sweat and liner. Pin not included. $200

Serious inquiries, contact me for more pictures. All were blocked on a vintage Stetson C-crown block that maximized the height of the crown. (I will add newer pictures Tuesday night.) Plenty of stiffener still in these hats, you can easily reshape them any way you want. For those who think they should be soft: that's not how they came from the factory. The brims have a healthy snap to them, it's almost like wearing a new hat.

You will not find a group of nicer, cleaner Stratoliners in less-common colors.

Interesting collection. Interior pictures would probably pique interest. Which war is the first one pre? Is there or was there evidence of a tip sticker?

Very nice vintage Strats....you smaller size fellows can grab these up.

Yes, the brown one has a tip sticker and no liner. Before WWII.

If a serious buyer asks for more pictures, I'll take them. Good pictures take a while.

As an added incentive... if you buy more than one, I'll give you a deal.

All very nice hats in my size. Simply beyond my budget at present.

A little additional information: after cleaning, the brown and blue were also reflanged on a vintage flange that was stamped Stratoliner... so the brim curl is proper for the hat.

(The blue-grey was basically NOS, didn't need anything except a brushing.)

Because someone asked... more photos of the brown one. One picture looks like spots on the hat, it's clean, I think the camera is dirty.

Tom, who has a Stratoliner flange?

Did you sell your hats?

 

[Benzadmiral]

Wish they were my size, 7 . . .

 

[tommyK]

Benzadmiral, you're lucky! At size 7 there are a lot of Strats in your size maybe even cheaper but, Vet's are nice and worth what he's asking. I'm surprised they're still available

 

[VetPsychWars]

Did you sell your hats?

Not yet.

What is the inner circumference of each hat?

 

[VetPsychWars]

At least 22". The number isn't exactly relevant because of the shape of the sweat and how it sits on your head. They're all 7-1/8. They all fit me well.
