Stetsonian Bogart a couple of questions I'd like answered

[basbol13]

Does anyone know when Stetson first made the Bogart? Also on the inside label it says 5x does that mean it has beaver felt or just a combination of beaver and some other fur?

 

[Rogera]

Normally a mix of rabbit and beaver.

 

[basbol13]

Thanks, do you have an idea of the percentages?

 

[jlee562]

The x marking system was never consistent, even within Stetson, whom has always disguised their percentages as "proprietary information."

 

[RJR]

The "X" question has been the subject of many threads and there hasn't ever been a definitive answer.

Unless it says Clear Beaver, I wouldn't count on the beaver content being very high.
