I have the same hat in gray. It is called the Avenue. Note that the material is not straw but braided polyester fibers. My Avenue is a nice looking hat and I do like it. There is a shot of it below. I do recommend that you look at Panama Bob's site. He still has quite a few of his $39.95 specials in most sizes and I would view them as a better value than the Stetson. For the $75 price of the Andover, he has some even nicer ones. I'd go that way unless you're partial to the Stetson's color scheme.

To me a milian ploy straw is a durable hat. It will last for years of abuse. Its a good investment.
