    A Very Short Hat Story

    So, interesting find here. I have this hat, a green felt velour “from Italy,” which is in a nice 50s/60s- style trilby. No maker on the the hat so I did some research and only found that the Traymore Hotel was once the place to be in Atlantic City until that time probably. It’s an interesting...

    Ah I don't do anything but look for critters, wipe 'em out, and wear them. There are a lot more places you're gonna get nasties than an old hat.

    Probably a thread about this somewhere but can someone give me a quick how-to on replacing a wide grosgrain ribbon with a thin one? Mighty thanks if you can.

    Here’s the rest of it. I would say 2.5” brim. Nice little topper. No clue of the year though.

    For anyone who's following this particular lead, it appears there was a hat for offer HERE in 2013 on the FL, and pkyoakum responded 8 years later to crickets that he'd just picked up the same liner on a hat. He then posted his own thread HERE but to no avail. He calls this hat a "Zenith." The...

    When you are dealing with an older open road Stetson 3X beaver quality, the kind with the open road bash like if you picked one off the bay or Etsy are you able to easily change the bash. Are those malleable? I've never had one before.

    Anybody have info on the selentino maple? Is it fur felt? It says velour. Can't find measurements either.

    Had a fella tell me that was his favorite Stetson and I’d never heard of it. Figured this would be the place to ask.

    What can anyone tell me about the Stetson Barnstormer? Is this a quality hat? Doesn’t appear to be in production anymore and there’s a dearth of information on the net.
