Fedorafest III Stratoliner from Stetson

Do one in sage/willow green and I'm in!

Same here, I'll second this choice--versatile but unusual.

How does this new hat compare to an Akubra Campdraft? Is it smaller or about the same dimensions?

Smaller crown, smaller brim width

I would like those colors also and would be interested.....

 

[Brad Bowers]

I'll second that thought.

Do one in sage/willow green and I'm in!

That would definitely be a color I'd want!

Smaller crown, smaller brim width

Thanks for the info. So, smaller than a Campdraft but looks (in the picture) to be slightly taller in the crown (maybe 1/2 inch) compared to the modern Stratoliner?

Oh well, with my second Campdraft on the way (green), a couple of Open Roads, a Moose River and a new Stratoliner (all silverbelly) already in my collection I can see that there would be wifely generated grief coming my way if I jumped on this one. Not much chance of me impressing her with the differences between them.

Gentlemen, I am wondering if the hat will be identified in any way, in the liner or sweat, as being a special run for Mike Moore/Loungers? The concept of a vintage quality Stetson lid made specifically for loungers is very appealing, and would be enhanced with the hats identified as such.

I'd certainly be interested in one. I'm still upset I missed you guys....considering you were staying less than 3 minutes from my house.

That hat looks a lot like my latest from Art. I'm a sucker for the thin ribbon/silverbelly combo anyway. If they can do big boy sizes, I'd snap one up for sure. Frank

Current Sage:

Hi, it the hat in the picture is the Stetson Temple in Sage, I may have to drop by the outlet in Saint Joeseph and get one. That does with a lot of my shirts (tan).

We will address that with Hatco when we get the hat in hand and it meets the specs, we asked for.

Thanks, Major!

Yes Thank you for all you are doing Major.

Count me in for this. The only silverbelly I have is the 7xCB, been considering the heritage campdraft but I think the dimensions of this sound better for me.

Hatco informed me and Rusty that they were trying to get a kangaroo sweatband for this hat.

That 'Roo sweat that I felt in the Ghurka at the Outlet store was some kind of supple!!!

 

[Bassman]

I'm not a thin-ribbon fan (sorry guys!), but I'd be willing to add this one to my collection to foster good Lounge-Hatco relations. Heck, I might even wear it once in a while.

X2 Brad.
I'd be interested in one in the colors shown in post #14, depending on price.
Size 7 1/2

I have some kangaroo leather (motorcycle) gloves. The 'roo leather is thin, soft, flexible, and strong. I think it would make an exceptional sweatband.

gold embossed with "The Flyer"?

Thanks to you, Rusty and Matt for getting this off the ground:eusa_clap
