Homage watches?
If anyone had told me I would be impressed by a "fake" watch at any time in the past I would have laughted at them...and maybe been a little insulted :) The "homage" watches aren't intended to decieve you into believing it is a Rolex. These are just a recreation of a good watch for pennies on...- Yahoody

Australian western style hats?
I've been watching NETFLIX'S "Muster Dogs" last couple of days. Some great dog work. But I also found the hats interesting. Looks to be a good collection of Sunbody hats, old and new. And a few nice felts as well. Episode 2 had everyone showing up in a new hat :D Seems every hat I have... -
Sombreros?
Kinda like pinto beans. Gotta have 'em! About as far away as we can get from a Fedora :-) Who else? -
The open crown Western hat?
Back in the day the typical western hat was bought open crowned and it was up to the owner to shape. Generally that was done over time with use. The open, unmolested, crown a sign of a new or special hat the owner was trying to take care of. In the middle of the 1800s the typical man... -
What do ya think?
I usually build my own hats using the best Winchester felt. It is just a hobby for me so everything is hand sewn on a hat I build. And no brim iron to give a nice sharp break. Anyway I recently stripped the sweat and liner from a slightly used hat of mine to send off, have it reblocked... -

The best selection of Cowboy hats in the USA?
When I was a kid most any local Western store had a fair size hat display. I'm talking small towns not Dallas! Selections are not so good any more. The cost of a decent felt hat has gone up and the Internet is King if you are searching. But who has the best selection of hats you can buy... -
JW Custom Hats, SLC Utah
For most regular folk JW Custom Hats is likely unknown outside Utah and the Great Basin. For anyone in the Western hat industry professionally its been the "secret" stash for years. Pretty much anything a professional hat shop needs, Jim aka JW and now Raymond (the new owner since JW's... -
Western Straw hats...not Sunbody
I have a big appreciation for palm leaf hats and Sunbody hats in particular. The old saying is "straw from Memorial Day to Labor Day", decent felt the rest of the year. I've worn and wore out a few Sunbody hats but they are still my go to "field hats" most summer days. One of the things I... -
Passing on some old friends..Cowboy boots for sale.
Short version as to why? Chemo has left me feet in sad shape. Last couple of years I have denied the fact that neuropathy has really taken a toll on them. I can deal with that but not being able to wear most of my custom boots is the real pain :) These are mostly custom Honcho boots (but...- Yahoody

Western Straw hats..I know, I know :)
OK, I know we have a "Western hat" thread. But for some of us that means felt not straw. July and August roll around here and even the diehards here dump the felt for straw some days. Unusual for us to not be over a 100 by this time in July but we haven't seen it yet this year. Better than... -

Vintage mountaineering anyone?
Find it a little difficult to admit it might be "vintage" ;) trad rock in the early '80s. Or mountains in the mid '70s. I still climb some...but less and less every year. This was Spring of 2013.- Yahoody

Making a Western hat by hand?
I need to preference this thread a couple of different ways. First off, a hat for me is a tool first and foremost. It is a fashion statement 2nd. Mind you how I look in my hat is really important to me....but it is not my first priority. I won't wear a hat I don't like. But I won't wear a... -
Captain Woodrow F Call
One of my favorite western stories is Larry McMurtry's of Woodrow and Augustus. Had a "Woodrow" hat since the series first aired, in one form or another. TLJones could get away with that big old open crown. Me? Not so much, so over the years I have toned my hats down some. Smaller crown... -

The classic Cowboy hat?
Never realized just how early I was into the "proper" shape for a hat till I made this comparison! Yep, same hat may be a year later :) Obviously I've had a passion for cowboy hats for a while now :) Started early and just got worse. Got my first decent felt Resistol in the 3rd Grade...
