Here's a real beauty I found at St. Vinnies in the Halloween pile. I think t's a Stetson Traveler. I had to really shell out some money for it. $1.80





HOWEVER, with a little TLC once I got it home.



This is a super soft and floppy felt. Very similar to a vintage borsalino and with a cloth sweatband, which leads me to think it was meant to fold up. Tag on the inside says the style is "Hampton" and Imperial Quality.

That thing is pretty sweet, Joao! Looks better in sliverbelly that black, I think.
Joao, Super! I like the form and brim curl. Wears great too!
Thank you both. You can see a kind of a smile on my face. That is unusual to happen ;)

Wow nice! There is a similar hat we have been looking at....now we know you like that style....lol! Humm....we have a straw hat that is a "gus" crease that is large like this hat. 4 inche brim and almost 7 inch crown.....I was playing around to steam the hat to a more "fedora" look to it, but not sure what to do with it....

Thank you Cindy. I like big brims and big crowns!
This one is not vintage like the ones Alan owns butI like anyway.
