You knew Stetson made The Open Road, that classic dress western hat worn by LBJ so many years ago, but did you realize that Stetson is behind the fabulous Pullman beaver fur felt fedora too? It's a limited edition dress hat with a telescope crown and stingy bound brim. As a matter of fact, the company (still known mainly for its cowboy and western hats) scorns the idea of coasting on its decades of hat-making expertise and not only offers a range of city slicker caps with their John B. Stetson Collection, but also dress hats like another sumptuous men's fedora in beaver fur felt called The Presidential Pinnacle. Another presidential hat is that nostalgic modern classic, a fur felt fedora holdover from the '30's called The Temple. Its got a dimensional raw edge brim and brings shades of the Indiana Jones look from Raiders to mind. If you prefer your presidential hat in a cashmere blend, you'll be pleased with mix of cashmere and wool in The Presidential Plaza Fedora.

What can I tell you? This isn't your grandfather's Stetson. They've updated. Gone all modern. They're city-slicker stylish (look at The City Fedora if you don't believe me), but with the experience of 140 years of hat-making excellence behind them. So, you get something like The Tehachapi, a 100% fur felt fedora with smooth suede finish. It's a got a stingy snap brim with a bound edge and the grosgrain trim is detailed with overstitched contrast. See what I mean? And it's almost hard to believe that The Flat Car comes out of Texas. This fur felt porkpie has a fine suede finish, a contrast color bound edge, and and two-inch tri-color grosgrain trim. There are hints of the Wild West in some of the fedoras, such as The Fulton, a handsome hat made from a Stetson-exclusive premium blend of cashmere and wool felt; a sporty hat called The Weekender, with its eye-catching feather overlaid leather band; and, of course, The Ghurka, an outback style hat. All the bells and whistles you expect from Stetson are here: bound edge, satin lining, and leather trim and sweatband, but I'll bet this'll be the first hat you've ever bought that's made from a blend of genuine kangaroo fur and wool felt.
Stetson Hats: 140 years of hat-making excellence you can put on your head.
