Cool personal story of mine regarding the Hat Store. I’m an HPD officer here in Houston. One rainy night 2 guys broke into their warehouse looking to steal copper. They rummaged through the hat boxes of several premium hats (100x, 200x and up) and they didnt take a single hat. Thought it was funny bc they had no idea they struck a gold mine lol
Wow!!! 🤯 no wonder they say “Information is power” 😅
yea that looks GREAT and I think will come BACK as a popular brim shape. Some of my 90's era customs have that basic organic packer front. Classic and balanced!!!!
That rounded crown looked good … 26:37
The Hat Store has cut and hand shaped western felt hats for many famous people including former President George H. W. Bush, Rick Perry, Dusty Hill and Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top, Lyle Lovett, Merle Haggard, Clint Black, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Alabama, Larry Gatlin, Dennis Weaver, Roy Rogers, Shaquille O’Neal, Craig Biggio and Lance Berkman of the Houston Astros, just to name a few.
Love this style. Cool mix of new/old. Love these older styles coming back.
Great video ,enjoyed hearing about some of the history behind the Texas Ranger Bicentennial Hat. One of my Great,Great Grandfathers was a Texas Ranger in the mid to late 1800's.
That Straw looks super fire
Thanks! It’s definitely different than my usual style, but a cool look and Blaine did a fantastic job.
As a retired Commonwealth law enforcement officer with the Australian Protective Service en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Australian_Protective_Service , we were issued two types of fur felt based upon the Australian Army fur felt en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slouch_hat yet turned down in Khaki and Navy colour. We also had a grey ‘Snowy River’ fur felt ( like seen in the movie man from snowy river issued for general use. The head Dress was issued dependant upon what region and unit you were stationed at. Officers at joint US Military Defense establishments mainly wore Khaki slouch due to the red dirt in those regions whilst city officers were issued the blue slouch or the grey snowy river.
We also had officer caps based on the Air Force uniform and baseball cap versions yet the colours were for specific regions even though we held the same office.
Great insight into the TEXAS RANGERS.
Thanks for sharing and commenting. Glad you enjoyed the video.

What is the style of shape on the dark hat you are wearing? I like the curve it has from front to back.
I’m wearing an American Chocolate 200x with cattleman crown and brim. You can see the video of this hat here. American Hat Company 200x Chocolate Shaping With Andy Henson at The Best Hat Store and Interview

Don't recon I've ever noticed a man wearing brown over black...nor other way around
It’s quite acceptable, “Keep your outfit neutral. Black and brown work best together when you skip any bold or bright colors and just do a mix of neutral hues.”. Thanks for watching and the comment.
