Merle Haggard was wearing a short brim hat when everyone else was wearing a George Strait crease. He always set his own style.

Billy Gibbons ZZ Top sets his own style. All of his hats look like a horse stomped them.

Hag is the reason I went to short brims in the 80's. Love them. I bought a hat at the Resistol hat factory in about '87 and asked the styler to cut the brim down and he said "Are you sure"?? He looked at me like I was crazy.

If you go back some pages in this thread you'll see where one of Moon's friends owns/owned (may have sold it) one of Ronnie's hats.

Just saw them last Monday night. I'm still a big fan of Rossington & Medlocke; Johnny, not so much. But I was a fan of Darrin #1; Darrin #2, not so much.

I'm just thrilled I saw the Gaines lineup before the tragedy. They smoked.

I will leave it to the more experienced forum members to identify the hat.

Dave Alvin on the same stage with James McMurtry at the The Lensic Performing Arts Center in Santa Fe, New Mexico January 2017.
I believe this is the same fedora previously posted in this thread and often worn by Dave when performing

Does Marshall Tucker still have any originals left?
