Subject: RE: BS: What do YOU wear on your head?
I'll go with the crowd with my 16 year old Fedora (Trilby style) Stetson "Gun Club" model. A similar but now apparently discontinued one that I wore for about 9 years (until the brim fell off) was also a Stetson called the "Indiana Jones" model.

I'd really like to retire this one, but when I took it to the only "hatter" in the region he informed me that "Stetsons are too cheaply made to be cleaned" so I bought one of his. His lasted about a year and fell apart, so I went back to my Stetson. While it has a whole lot of character, and I really do have to treat it gently, I think it's good for at least a few more years.

It used to be brown.
