Stetson FORMOSAN

This homemade ribbon was laying on a shelf in the garage... so I threw it on this Stetson FORMOSAN straw and got some yard work done today.

Nice recovery, Brent. My No. 1 is one I most often reach for myself.

This 1950s Stetson No. 1 Quality was an internet find several months ago. The hat arrived sans liner and with a completely dry rotted sweatband. After setting it aside for a while, I decided to give it a new lease on life by sending it to Wolfbrae and having @belfastboy clean it up and completely rebuild it. It turned out fantastic! It originally had a two-cord ribbon and the new ribbon and campaign bow gives it a whole different vibe. It didn’t lose all it it’s vintage character and it’s just what I was hoping for.

Yard work? All I have is snow and ice in my yard here in CT.
South FL we stay green. There is maybe 6 to 10 weeks we can skip the lawn mowing though. Was mostly doing some clean up. Try to get some of that done before we are back in the upper 90s with matching humidity.
