I ordered a Stetson Royal Deluxe Whippet in caribou two days ago. It shipped yesterday and it will not only be my first whippet but it will be the first time that I have purchased a brand new hat from Stetson. Of course I was hoping to find a vintage one but that has been a bit of a challenge so I thought I would just grab a new one, wear it, love it and go from there.

steur,
Thank you so much!
This is the only thing under the sweat band but it looks like Knox to me given by your photos.

Pardon the second picture with the flash glare but there was something written on it in red ink which was driving me crazy.
It must be some secret manufacturer's code, maybe some Lexol will bring it to the surface and then out in the sunlight I can see it.
It's, it's...

I can't make it out, but I think the owner may have penned his name in there.

Either that, or it says, "Don't forget to drink your Ovaltine."
