Mens Twstfe

This is my first brimmed hat and being from Philadephia AND recently getting into horseback riding at 35, I wanted something with class, with quality, and most importantly something practical that will withstand the NorthEast wild weather. I settled on this 100% wool cap that had the right amount of flex and stiffness. I tried a few other stetson (tried via amazon) and they were either too tight as small sizes (which is what I measured my head to be) or didn't have the right brim. This one is absolutely perfect! I wore it in the horse field on Saturday with some light rain and it held up great. I did recently dye my hair reddish so I noticed the sweatband in the front picked it up so I quickly used a tide to go pen and blotted it out. The Sante fe print in front did smear a bit with the tide pen, but the hair dye did luckily come out. I'll be more careful with it as I LOVE this hat and hope to keep it for use for MANY more years to come!

Was worried a bit from some of the negative reviews, but couldn’t help but try bc of the sale price. Turned out to be a really good lookin hat. Only negative was the hat could’ve used a bit more protection instead of the box - then again it is a crushable :p

Excellent quality, exactly as described, arrived safely in a box! Fit is accurate - measure your head and it will fit.

First one was junk with band tore out Returned and was shipped a good one quick Thanks

For a minute there , I was worried that my hat would come all squished in a box . To my surprise , the hat came safely into my hands and unto my head . Now I could use this for the winter months to shovel snow ( you can't use a hat to shovel snow , you'll have to use a snow shovel silly ) and blow snow off the sidewalk . Also , I'm happy with the chinstrap since I live around a lake and gusts of wind can come out of nowhere and blow your hat to the wind . The only thing I wish was they had this in white since I'm planning to move to a warmer climate in the near future . One more thing I would like to add , I really wish Stetson would place more chin straps on all their hats . Anyways , I'm just happy to have my hat around my head .

Hat is very good looking and is as pictured. The stampede string is useful because I intend to use the hat while fishing, and when a gust comes up, it's easy for a hat to fly off. I've had to chase them before. If I were using it for casual wear, I might do without the string or get a different hat. The string does tuck in if you need it to. As a crushable, it's not as crisp looking as my standard cowboy hat, but then I wouldn't expect it to be. I haven't traveled with it yet so I'd need to report later about how it travels. The hat ran a little large, but the seller provided foam spacers and they worked as intended. Happy with the purchase.

Material wise, Its no comparison to what you used to get from Stetson. And the finishing touches have become fairly simplistic. But the experience in making hats for a very long time is still evident and workmanship is professional. You're unlikely to find lose ends or any obvious imperfections. Which I can't say about all the hats I've bought over time. The more annoying negative is, that the Beaver ratings have turned into a joke. They may have 10xx 20xx or 100xx hats that have either no Beaverfur component or extremely low. I can't repeat the entire dissertation on the subject, but as long as you know, you're getting an all-wool hat with maybe a little bit of rabbit fur in it, you'll probably be happy. If you're planning to use that hat for serious trekking tours, to protect you from days of heavy rain, for example - you better find a vintage hat with the right beaver fur percentage.

When I saw this hat the strap was the main thing it made me buy it. But when I received it the strap was not there. Hat is so nice and stylish but it loses value for me without the strap. How can I get the strap?
