Exquisite.
I bought a vintage cattleman’s crease Bailey U Rollit a few months ago thinking that I could maybe pull it off and that with the wide brim and vented crown it would be the perfect thing for summer. The wife and kids busted up so hard when I put it on and then insisted so strenuously that I should wear it outside that I knew I could never even go out the front door of our apartment in it.Thanks, guys!
With Charlie’s and others cheering me on I might could actually venture out further than the property fence line!
Until I can afford my dream ranch in Wyoming I think I’ll have to stick with 2 7/8” brims—at the most.
One exception.
I have a Stetson Beaver 100 (thanks to Dr. Randy) with a 3 1/4” brim that I feel great under!
May do that thread, David. You have one you’re not wearin around town?
My sentiment entirely. Conventional, of course, but with style. I love it.
I love everything about this hat!
Looks great on you!!!

The perfect titfer for that whistle, Robert.My sentiment entirely. Conventional, of course, but with style. I love it.

The Stetson Sovereign tops off today's whistle.
Cockney rhyming slang: "Whistle & flute...........suit."
As promised, a very minty early 60s Stetson Beaver 100. I have no insecurities about wearing this 3 1/4” curled brimmed gem!
‘Round here, 5” brims can cast a whole lotta shade, both literally and figuratively.

Can you believe Dr. Randy @Rmccamey let this’n leave Texas?! He’s a really good feller, and I felt that way about him long before he sold me this beauty.
I'm impressed Steve. Cockney rhyming slang has crept into the lexicon of many an English speaking country but if you were wondering, titfer is an abbreviated corruption of tit for, as in, tit for tat, hat.The perfect titfer for that whistle, Robert.
That Western looks great!Northwest in granite beaver. I had to go to over 9,000 elevation for it to be cool enough to wear felt.

Love the proportions on this one. Love the backdrop too. We have decent landscapes in Alabama but the landscape in your photos here are majestic!Northwest in granite beaver. I had to go to over 9,000 elevation for it to be cool enough to wear felt.

Happy Hump Day, dudes!
I have a few hats like that: great to have in the collection, but likely not to wear about the town. What a thing though!Since there’s no thread called “What hat are you wearing, but only in the yard” thread I’m gonna have to post this 80s/90s? Tom Mix Stetson here. Once.
Fraid I’m fresh outta cattle at the moment and my pearl handled six shooters are in the…uh, shop.
Though I live in an extra rural area of South Georgia and we’uns wear western hats and other cowboy garb and have horses and even some cattle, don’t nobody wear anything like this’n round abouts.
I’m sure folks would laugh me right outta the swamp, but have to admit, I sorta cotton to this look—for another minute or two. View attachment 540546 View attachment 540547 View attachment 540548 View attachment 540549 View attachment 540552

My “hat safes” are nothing more than plastic storage bins and some bathroom sized trash liners to individually wrap and hopefully keep bugs away from the felt. Hey some do have plastic snap lock handles.. does that count? I’m fighting (and losing) the need to add more bins though!Thanks, Joe. I’m waiting to see if you’re going to start building safes a la Max now that your collection is full of so many incredible hats.
