    Just a question about Stetson X ratings I have an OR which is marked 'Stetson 25' but has no X's on the sweatband. I see some/most marked 3x and they don't feel all that great...at least compared to my 25....which is buttery soft. What X rating would a 25 be equal to.... How much better...

    Vintage 3x Open Road 7 1/8

    This one I just bought off ebay but just does not fit me right. I think I need a long oval. Anyway, it is size 7 1/8, has the tag, says Open Road on the band. All in very nice condition....3x silver belly. Comes in original Stetson box. I paid $41 plus shipping. Will sell for the same...

    Well, I woulda used more smileys but I didn't wanna flood the place with them. I'm not 'throwing a fit' as you suggest at all. I guess I missed the tongue in cheek stuff that Swoopy posted and for that I apologize. I'm usually more astute to those things. :)

    Oh, not at all. You know that the OR comes, or so I thought, in a specific 'cattleman' type bash from the factory. If some come/came as an open crown I must admit that I didn't know that. I certainly have no problem with guys who bash an OR...or any other hat...into a style that they...

    Well, I will say this. My first post on this thread gave a link to a pic of a hat that I was told was an OR. Deputy replied that 'proof of Open Road-ness was required to post on this forum' Oh...excuse me! Other members...or wannabe's...have been denied ? membership ? because the sweat band...

    OK...yeah I see your smiley, but you guys take yourselves WAY too seriously here. C'mon, get real. Maybe I need to just cancel my FL membership and go somewhere else. FWIW, most of this web forum is fulla guys who are way to vain to be believed. Just sayin ..:) And I know you won't miss...

    Just lurking this thread today. Deputy: I had heard that a fair number of Open Roads don't actually SAY 'Open Road' on the sweat band. So...we would not be 'allowed' to post on your OR Guild ? :rolleyes: & lol

    A new, to me Open Road. I'm told it's circa 1970 but you guys might well have a better idea. It doesn't say Open Road on it anywhere but I have no doubt. It is a Stetson 25 and is buttery soft. Dunno when or if they stopped making them with the 'wind cord'. Almost too nice to wear and looks...

    What's the value ? Most of you have likely seen this Vintage Open Road for sale on ebay. To me it's way over priced but I dunno what it really should sell for...

    Question re: Miller Hats

    I've visited their online store and they seem to have some pretty nice quality brands at decent prices. They also have their own store brand, but question is, who makes them and what's the quality like ? I have taken a liking to their so called Westside which is a fawn version of the OR or so...

    Thanks, Jimmy, for the explanation. Such a subtle difference but noticeable once you point it out.

    Teardrop Workshop

    OK...looks like what I want in my fedoras...but what is the difference between the teardrop and the C crown ? They both look the same to me. [huh] FWIW, I have bookmarked this thread so I can always find it

    Thanks for the kind words. This one is not bound and I had come to believe that OR's were always bound. Could be something similar to an OR I guess. It was much a much lighter more SB color before...could use a good cleaning.
