VS Stratoliner (sage beaver felt). This hat was inspired by the vtg. Stetson Stratoliners and the like hat that the forums member Jauntyone (French residence) owns.

Thanks , Anthony. It's one of those hats that feels like it needs some stiffener added.... almost too soft. It creases whatever way it wants.... it's completely out of my control..haha

I understand completely
I love my hats that feel that way
They change ever time I touch them.
My mood changes quite a bit so why shouldn't theirs?
That's how I see it anyway

Vtg. Lee Commentator. Factory crease wears well.

Mr. and Mrs. Potatohead were criticizing their daughter's choice of men to date. The daughter protested, "But my latest boyfriend is nice, and he has a good job working on-air at the radio station!"

Mrs. Potatohead looks upon her disapprovingly and says, "But honey, he's just a common-tater!"

My latest Resistol Stagecoach conversion in Silverbelly. I'll be posting more pics in the Conversion Corral...the yellowish looking areas on the hat is just the low quality picture of my camera phone and not the hat itself.

I was so pleased with the Diamond creases on my Dark Brown and Tawny Fawn Fed IVs that I thought I'd push my luck and re-crease my Moonstone as well. There are obviously variations in the final shapes, but I like them and they now fit better than ever.
They are beautiful!!! Have you named them yet? All kidding aside, you've done a great job creasing them.
