My Glenn family O'Farrell 50X was shaping up to be similar but I kind of stopped working on it when I couldn't decide on a hatband for it. Never finished it & haven't touched it in months now.Thoroughbred today.

Looks like identical dimensions and crease.
4" RE brim that I tried to kettle curl using the pot method. I gave up & was going to iron it out. Original crease was a Stockman or Roper. Had matching hatband with jewelry. Was looking for a beaded band with some color but didn't come up with anything before I lost interest.
I really like the Montana and the band is great!Resistol Montana today.

I like it Jared, good find!The Junior Cowboy arrived.
Interesting hat. The weight and hand of the felt actually remind me very much of Hatco's current Royal Deluxe (which is to say, feels kinda like my premier Strat). This hat takes a dry crease quite easily (moreso than the modern, for sure) but there is a tiny bit of spidering on the front pinch making me suspect this was on the lower echelon of felt qualities.
I undid the very aloof crease in it because the jaunty diamond was forcing the crown out too wide for me to wear. Going with this mini-Gus for now. The brim stiffened up when steamed. I think the partial brim curls may have been done in store (clean and even curl that looks like a proper tool was used as opposed to hand curling) but I don't really know how the hat would have been originally configured. Looks like the label indicates a 51 block. 5 1/2 open crown, 3" brim.
I like that pictured hat very much, Brent. Very nice.@belfastboy introduced me to this hatter. Several of his offerings look very appealing.

Very cool look Jonesy!!
Really nice hats, Brent. I promised myself I would really cut back on my hat purchases, but I would be tempted if I hadn't. They are really nice.@belfastboy introduced me to this hatter. Several of his offerings look very appealing.

Those are all great looking hats! Your Ft Worth crease caused me to recrease mine. These are all similar dimensions also. All Resistols, 5x County Sheriff, 5x Ft Worth, and double x Plains.
They all look great DD. I think these Stockman creases with lowered brims look sort of dressy. And I spy a Skinny too! Is that the XDoubleX?Those are all great looking hats!

Yes, the double x has the skinny. I agree that the Stockman looks much better with the brim lowered.
Of those 3 I like the County Sheriff & the XDoubleX best.Yes, the double x has the skinny. I agree that the Stockman looks much better with the brim lowered.
Here is a Double x Ft Worth in original crease.
