I modified my new Stetson twenty five into a soft cattleman and tweaked the brim a little. It doesn’t say open road on it, but appears to be the right block and dimensions. Either way, great hat, despite being able to still see the former crease marks a bit.

Fantastico! Everything is at right place!
Thanks Daniele. I was particularly admiring the combo of Fleur's refurb, the scarf and coat your are showing today. Very nice all.

That is one fantastic looking Resistol, Michael. Love that colour.

Stay safe, and hope you feel better soon.
Thanks Steve. I'm feeling vaguely better and the weather is thinking about starting to warm up. Ha ha. The color is Whisky, if you are in the market for one.

Spectacular hat Michael, feel better
Thanks Alan. One of these days I'll have to try it open crown.

Thanks all,
Michael

Looks good Jeff.
Afternoon drop off of the tawny Matt Deckard Stetsonian...
The color difference from differing lighting isn't as visually impactful as the difference in brim configuration. Brim up for Bob!!

Very debonair, Charlie.

Mac Lachlan Beaver 15 - Light Silver
5 inch center dent crown - 5 1/2 Open
2 7/8 brim with Cavanagh edge
2 inch Black grosgrain ribbon
Wind Trolley

It is not hard to see past the moderate mothing on this Mac Lachlan Beaver 15 to see that is was one BEAUTIFUL hat... and really still is. The hand of the felt feels fantastic and it shapes with ease. The brim is a full 2 7/8 with a gorgeous Cavanagh edge. The look and feel of this hat make it hard for me to fathom what the quality would be like on their Fifty Silver Beaver or Max’s grail Golden Beaver 100. Aside from the moth nibbles... none of which go all the way through the felt. It just needed a good brushing that released a good half century or more of dust.. and it really sprung to life. The beautiful brown sweat features the iconic Mac Lachlan Air-Vac Cooling and Cushion system.
