What, no posts here since July? Time to add more. This one owned has been passed around a bit and though still in nice shape, shows the most wear of any of my old westerns. Color is coffee + 1% milk.
Steam cleaned with open crown
Creased, crown 5 1/4 at highest point, 3 1/2" brim
sweat stained ribbon, a small bit of moth love and some old stretch marks on the sweat... signs of a life well-lived.
I have to restitch a bit of the rear sweatband seam and add an old bow.

Thanks Ale... I am so not a cowboy, but I really love these old western hats.Originally Posted by Aureliano
Alan, that is a beautiful western hat. The crease looks perfect with that hat and you wear it like its natural for you. Looks as if you just came out of the barn.

What's not to love?! Very nice old Stetson ...
Great stuff, Mr. F! I love the crease you gave it: rarin' to move forward.

You look fantastic in it, Alan. You can definitely pull of the westerns.

Thanks very much guys... happy trails to you.
Beautiful No.1 Quality, Alan!! I love everything about the hat. I love that the ribbon shows some age, it really gives the hat some character. You wear this style of hat so incredibly well. I especially like the coat/hat combo. Great find!
