...seeding and yardwork... switched out of my straw "coffee" hat and moved under an old beater LLBean straw... No since sweating up a nice toquilla hat. Gets much hotter and Ill actually have to wear the cheap stetson polyester hat more often.. At least it looks nice and crisp on the riding mower
Good morning hat folks. My morning walkabout was under the brim of a Stetson Buckaneer. The stitched brim treatment is well done. The light gray-blue felt has a stitched brim edge. The mid sized ribbon really gives dimension to the crown and brim size.
Back home I switched to a...
This morning I chose my Stetson 3X Open Road in Gray. I'll admit that I might have a small problem with these Open Roads... can't seem to stop looking at them for sale ads.lol.
* who knows, by the end of the day I will probably have had each and every one of them on for awhile.

Cheers, Eric -
Id better hurry up and finish the 4x.... the next project hat came in today a 3x Stetson. Actually pretty decent shape. Just had to pull about 1/4" of felt out from under the sweatband lol Now it fits well. Not bad for a $23 hat!
Stetson Balibuntal - a parabuntal weave featuring some unknown process of weather protection. This is a very durable and comfortable hat that is one of my most worn summer toppers. It orignally came to me with a maroon paisley pugaree that was nice looking with the bronze straw but it was...
Wow, I see these prices and it makes me wonder if the Great Depression hadn't hit Colorado much yet. Brother can you spare $8 so I can buy a cheap Stetson??
...has "MB Sales" in the sweatband. I was wondering about what vintage and style this is; can't find anything on it anywhere. Not wild about the chrome hatband, so I replaced it with a leather one I had. It looks sort of like the two Stetson Carsons I have, but there is no tag with info, or a box.
