We designed a bar tap steamer he showed it off last week at Dallas Market Hall. It was a big hit. If anyone around Lorena TX. Need your hat shaped he can do it.

My thing was that years ago (I'm dating myself) it seems just about everyone wore the slightly smaller style. If you have a vehicle where you take your hat off while you drive, etc.- the slightly smaller size was a convenience. In any event I was wondering whatever happened to that size. I guess it is still made but not pushed.
Now I want a Model94 but with a full length magazine on a 24" barrel.

If I were younger I would buy myself another Stetson and wear it proudly every day but those days are long gone.The worst pair of boots I owned were Tony Lamas !. The best pair of boots I ever owned was Paul Bonds that I bought way back around 1975.They fit like a glove from the very first time I put them on but sad to say now they are made in mexico or so I heard.

Guess I might of got the wrong info about Paul moving to mexico.

I collect Stetson hats. I think the one you are speaking of is the Stetson Open Road. This hat was made famous by both Harry Truman and LBJ. I have 4 of these...my favorite Stetson style. I wear one every day.

Tony Lamas. When I was a kid I read Western Horseman a lot- always remembers the ads, those Tony's overly dolled up for sure. I was in San Angelo about a week or two ago and stopped at Leddy's. Nicest Woman I ever met. $1,400 is sort of steep but you get what you want, which is worth a lot. Bull hide, cutting heel with shelf, thumb holes, sub nosed toe to your preferred width, etc. etc. Everything just the way you want it. Might nibble at the bait.
