Stetson JBS vs Bar None straw

[new2hats]

I am considering buying a stetson straw JBS or a Bar none. Does anyone have these hats or picts of them? How do you like them? Its difficult to see how they are just by the same internet photos...

Thanks.

Show us a few photos.

The one on the right is the JBS 500x, the left is the 100x Bar none. Both 4" crown, 4" brim. The JBS has roan leather I believe while the other does not. Both have profile 31, which means the crown shape perhaps. Maybe this should be in the side by side comparison thread. Either way, anyone have either or both and want to comment? The price is only about 30 dollars difference at this particular website. Not sure if the extra x's and roan leather worth 30 bucks?

Well, I ordered the JBS zeppe. Itll take 4 to 6 weeks from order date. No one else has added anything to this thread, so I guess these are not popular hats, at least here anyways.
