Mark, I have a beaver 25 from the Cow Lot and it's a nice hat. Love the liners. I'd be floored if Resistol didn't make these hats.

Nice story on the Cow Lot here: https://thecowlot.com/our-story/
Cool story about Nat Flemming and his dream!!! It was re-opened in 2013 with new people.
Thanks for letting me know!!!
It seems you just never know what will arrive with hats of this era....

Well if your Beaver 25 is a good one I should think this one will be too......

Yeah I visited their website after I got mine. Don't believe it's quite the same. I'll be interested to hear your thoughts when it comes in. Maybe a whole lot like my Churchill 50.
Dorfman Pacific Cotton Aussie hat. I've been looking for a new beater hat for hiking. I don't want to rough up my Willis & Geiger too much. The Redwoods trip took a toll on the leather sweatband, and I don't want to ruin my HJ Poet. My straw Scala Panama is starting show age in the straw.

It's been a while since I pulled the trigger on a new hat. So, I was web surfing today and found a nice Stetson shantung on sale, so I went ahead and ordered it. Should arrive in about three days.

Congratulations, Fred. The vented crown shantungs are attractive summer hats.

Thanks! I've upped my exercise regimen quite a bit these days, and keeping the sun off my face and ears while I'm soaking up the Vitamin D and staying cool is of paramount interest.

First time post,
I just purchased a new Stetson to add to my collection, I currently have a new open road in silverbelly and a new cavalry hat. I really like the cavalry hat it kind of looks to me like an uncreased open road. I found this stetson conservation officers hat on Ebay and couldn't resist. It says it was unworn in the box purchased from an estate sale.

I saw that one! I resisted, even though, like any sensible non-dutch and not colorblind person, I love green hats. Right, Stefan?

Hah!
Well I'm glad you did. There is something really interesting to me about a hat that served a purpose or was part of a uniform, especially when it's just a really nice hat..

Thanks for the welcome! I'm sure you could find a Missouri conservation stetson, but what you need is a Royal Canadian Mounted Police Stetson from here in BC! Although it seems pretty pricey.

It looks like the hatband is in the box in one of the photos. $350 canadian is like $250 USD and I bet it could be had for about $250 or $275 want me to email him? haha
