Stetson The Open Road

I’m starting a new weekly segment featuring some of the hats, vintage and modern, from my collection.

This week I’m going to start with an icon among hats, Stetson The Open Road. I own a few of the vintage versions and this is in the 4X Beaver category. The felt on this hat is soft and very workable for those who like to change the crown style from time to time.

The hat is suitable to wear brim up or brim down, as well as with a nice suit or a pair of jeans and a T-shirt. This is a very beautiful hat that would make a great addition to any collection or as an everyday wearable.

There are many versions of the Open Road, but I feel older models are of better quality, of course that’s my opinion.
