Been wearing cowboy hats for forty plus years. Love my hats, jeans and boots. 350
Enjoyed learning this. Never knew a thing about them other than playing cowboys and Indians as a small boy early 60's
My first hat was a Stetson! My dad bought it for me when I was 5 years old and we were buying cattle in Amarillo TX. Resistol ever since. 350
RIP, Mr Holster
I've always really liked the hat you usually wear in your videos. Great shape.
An excellent tutorial, Mr. Holster! I wear a Stetson Open Road. I just switched over to my straw one down here in TX (not to rub it in...). 350!
I shape hats, you’ve got the best take on hats I’ve seen! Thanks!☝️🤠
I really did learn something good tonight. Knowledge is something that is something that will stay with you from now on. 350 Thank you , Now off to buy a new hat.
Great info. I have been collecting Cowboy Hats for a year or two. I am much better informed now. Thanks!! SHOW US ALL YOUR HATS. VOL 2!!
Remember the Larry Mahan Grizzley. I had one. My favorite was a Resistol that looked like yours after years of wear and swatting horses and cattle!!!! 350
My sweatbands get soaked every time I work outside in the summer. I always get a size bigger than my head size and let the hat shrink down to my head. Takes a little while but it's worth it. Also, people pay extra for that dirt. Wear it with pride! I've got dirty old hats to wear while working and shiny new ones to wear when I wanna look a little nicer. Just depends on where I'm going.
Love Cowboy hats. Even here in ND, you don't see them much anymore. They have to have them funny baseball hats. Still have 2 or 3 around here. You never know, they may come back. 350
My first hat was a Roy Roger's from Sears a million years ago. 350
Seratelli makes a great hat. In fact, they used to make the raw bodies for both Stetson and Resistol, but they eventually just started producing their own finished product. American Hats have come a long way, and are a good hat as well.
Well I love cowboy hats.. I perfer the pinch front hats myself. The one I have is a Stetson wool blend. I paid $80 for it and to my surprise it's held up very well. I've beat the hell out of the thing and managed to get it soaked a few times in storms and even lost it it in a river once..have a good day Mr Holster.. 350
Great information, Thanks!
You may be speaking of mark custom hatter in hooper utah. He has a very simple x system 10x 50x 100x 10% beaver 50% 100% beaver prices are fantastic for what he is making.
That was interesting! Thank you for sharing :-) Thumbs up! Have a great Friday and weekend ahead.....Jenny ♫
I bought my last three at Duncan Oklahoma and still use them. One that is white is my everyday. My black is for formal and funerals. My gray is for church and informal meetings.
Well, I'm more confused but more educated. Good video. I have a hand made leather hat by Sterkowski that I got because I'm out in the rain a lot. I used otter wax on it, but I haven't put it to the test yet. I don't know how it compares to good felt. 350.
Very informative video. That Stetson 50 is one beautiful hat Thanks for sharing Sir 350
Great video... I've loved cowboy hats my whole life. I too am a fan of Resistol... And I'm not too terrible with a tea kettle myself if I don't say so....
Serratelli hats seem to be good quality too. And no, I don't work for them 😂😂 😂😂😂😂
Cowboy hats are great and most time I do wear a black hat all year. sweat will damn sure shrink the band but more sweat will bring it back to fit. My wife usually does the recycling; Here is a new hat, but always black. 350
Very interesting info about cowboy hats as whenever you enter into something with little knowledge of it you will always get surprised about how much info is to learn...350....
I go back to the RCA crown. Late 60's. Now it's a Gus for work and a block for dress. Stetson.
Good educational vlog Mr. Holster. Thanks. When ever I need to clean my ball caps, I just run them through the dish washer. Works great. Can't say how that would work with a cowboy hat though. (350).
Very good Doodoo on Cowboy hats Mr H!! 350
got my xxx10 in bixby az that place well over a hundred yrs old is next to tombstone next to the border where the bandits and gunfighters would run to when in trouble my hat cost $1000 still great shape.
One of my best hats is a Seratelli. It’s 4X but 50/50 beaver rabbit. 100% USA.
Stetson and Resistol advertise separately but are one company called Hatco. 4X are great beaters.
Do you have any other videos on Cowboy hats?
Good info, I never knew about cowboy hats. 350
I have a few hats that are about 35 yrs old got to look and see what they are thank you for the info 350
Thanks for sharing.
I REALLY LIKED THIS ONE, PLUS THE OTHER ONE COOKING ONE THE TWO STAKES. A NAME FOR THE CAFE " THUNDER " SAM 2
i like cowboy hats and resistol is my favorite actually its all i own . 350
Bill Rentz The most informed 15 min I have spent in awhile. I have 3Xs now and not looking forward to increasing that. To much Beaver!
Regarding dating Stetson hats. Prior to 1960 the size tag was round. Prior to around 1955 Stetson only printed the fractional portion of the size so 7 1/4 appeared as 1/4 without the 7 in front. Around 1960 Stetson changed from round to rectangular size tags, so that indicates you are correct and your Stetson 50 is from the 1960s. Starting around 1970 Stetson included the size in centimeters in addition to the traditional size indicator. While it is easy to date hats made before 1970 by the size tag, you have to use the liner and sweatband to date Stetson hats made after 1970.
Thank you for the information Sir. Very Interesting to me and most appreciated.
How tall of a crown do you like? Seems like most stetsons are 4 5/8ths. I kinda like the 5 inch crown though.
My wife says I have too many hats..... lol
Cowboy hats are cool. I have one made of mink and beaver. 350..
uh oh,i'm a learnin'. thank you for the info.
Always up for learning something new. Hope the weather lets you get some work done on your new range. 350
time lost ? what a concept/belive me i've wasted time in far wose ways.great video I was in parrish hats in alamo,no beaver so I brought a straw seteson,(gus) most comftable hat I own
Cheers ...... I need a good cowboy hat!
ebomey To go with your two mountain movies?
Hell yeah ... I picked up lube!
ebomey Welcome to the Rough Riders club
Good information Mr Holster, 350
Hatco make Stetson, Resistol and Charlie 1 Horse, but still, there's not much uniformity to the X factor. I have an older Tyler model by Stetson I like, but a few others in my closet. My Favorite is a Cindy Bowling, out of Oklahoma. And shaping seems to be a lost art, good episode Mr. Holster. Apply for moneitization for this video. It should be within the realm of the reviewers.
#350 I'm rocking a 6x resistol granite cowboy hat right now, next 1 has to be at least a 20x
I actually liked the video. Very informative, sir. Much appreciated. 350
I just got schooled on Cowboys hats. I don't see any around my neck of the woods. 350
Where do I find that 4x at?
I'd like to refer you to Durango custom hat and saddles. Melissa over there does real works of art. You can find a couple of videos on TH-cam of her and her work.
350. Hey Mr. Holster. Great video. I always enjoy wasting a few minutes listening to fellow old farts ramble on about things. Keep it up.
oh contraire, my friend! I got plenty out of this! I have a resistol hat and now I know something about it. I really enjoyed this discussion and hope you'll do more....and what about the ribbon I see seen onto the edge of some hats? mine is a cheaper hat and it doesn't have one.
Good video Mr Holster. And I wouldn't mind a video on shaping...
350!
Question bud What’s tour take one hats labeled grizzly...what is it actually
Resistol hats are what you were when your working, and Stetson's are when you go out on a date. Of course Stetson's you can wear when you are working too.
Knowledge passed on is knowledge learned.... it may not be used at the time of learning but it will be remember or used to be referenced in the future...... 350.........
Hey guys. Im quiet interested Int this art. Been searching for courses but had no luck in finding one. Do you guys know of any place where I can aquire this art?
If you really wanted this, find a custom hat maker!
Please make a volume 2
Lots of good info. 350
thanks
Nice hat Mr. Holster! What did it set you back, 350?
I haven't wore a cowboy hat in about 20 years. My wife still has the one I was married in. 350
I never owned a cowboy hat, so this was interesting..350
MICHIGAN COVERED HEAVY SNOW. LEARNED A LOT ABOUT HATS. I HAVE SEVERAL. WHEN I WEAR MINE I GENERALLY WEAR A STRAW. THINGS FOR THE INFO. Car Code Call Sign Sam 2
Like that hat
you are saying that six x beaver to the remaining rabbit fur is more resistant to the ten x and then you say that the higher the x is greater... I am lost because paid 500$ for my 60/40 hat. I do know about la mina de Oro. I have purchased many hats and trust the beaver variety although I don't care about certain names . I believe in things having a use and if it doesn't work well it just doesn't work .Also la Joya is a hat worth wearing.
It has been a long while since I made this video. The mixture of beaver fur and rabbit make a sturdier hat due to the different barbs on the hairs and the better hold its provides the hairs. The beaver fur is more expensive and makes a more water repellent lighter hat so is graded higher and costs more. All depends upon the desired use of the hat as to what you want is what I was trying to express here I think. ( Again it has been almost 2 years since I made this video.) There is no standard for a rating system and I would not be surprised if many manufacturers do not grade their own product consistently. A 6X hat from one manufacturer may be overpriced at 100 dollars while a 6X from another at 500.00 may be a steal. One individual may be happy with a wool hat for his needs while some one working cattle may want an expensive mixture hat that will stand up to abuse, another may want a Resistol Beaver rabbit blend and replace it regularly or someone else may only want it for church on Sunday and require the most expensive Beaver cashmire blend 100x Stetson they can find. I think what I was trying to do in this video is give a basic background in run of the mill cowboy hats and a little slight history in 15 minutes but again it has been a long time since I made it. Thanks for Watchin'
good video 350 👍
Nice Hats Mr Hoster....350
still have and wear a 3X stetson i got back in 1979 at Disneyland for $80.00.
Very informative. 350
Hey I'd rather spend 14 or 15 minutes listening to babbling about cowboy hats than listen to 3 minutes of crappy music. So yeah, I'm in for a cowboy hat...350
I was wondering if you were ever going to do a hat video. 350
I Love Beavers, 350
I don't have any cowboy hats...350
very informative. 350
Good video but i prefer American hat company
I like your videos...350
well I found a hatter who can make the hat I'm after and it won't cost too awful much especially being a 6x so maybe I'll get my hands on it in a few months...350
Nice Hats! 350
Nice to know! 350
Don't judge your hat by the Beaver!!!!
