      Because they were pressed for time and he was more focused on finding a hat more suited to her head. The situation called for being selective on what kind of hats will have more info provided. they started with fedora so sadly the priority must be this hat in its back history, and even then it should be a brief abridged one. Not all of it will be provided.
      Don't expect a short skit on a news show to give an absolutely extensive educational course of all hats like it is a history channel. You ought to know this.

    I get my hats from Rand’s in Billings, Montana where they put an old antique apparatus on your head to measure for the hat they are going to make for you. I’ve been doing that since 1988.

    Do they realize Stetson was born in Texas? They do have a single form from the initial plant in Longview, yes, and then get shaped at finishing shops like he said, but he failed to mention that the "supplier" he was discussing is the original plant in Longview Texas.

    • @LowPlainsDrifter60
      @LowPlainsDrifter60 Před rokem +1

      The first & original stetson factory was in Philidelphia. The company Stetson no longer exists but like Resistol & Dobbs (& many other brands) the hats are now made by Hatco in Garland, Texas.
      The Longview factory was built by Hatco in the 1950s which essentially made the raw hat bodies.

      The trick is that You wear the hat, don't let the HAT wear you. Put it on, exude confidence and be the BOSS you know you are. I have cowboy hats, fedoras, flat caps etc... The key is when you wear your hat, don't wear a "cowboy" shirt, cowboy boots, chaps, spurs, etc... Otherwise it makes it like you are wearing an "outfit" and not just wearing your hat like a boss.
