    You did such a great job on that hat. I couldn’t tell if it still has the satin lining intact and also, what would it cost to replace the band now that it looks so nice? Great job bud. I’m totally fascinated by anyone restoring anything from old cars to Nintendo controllers and systems. 👍☮️🌞🌟🤠💕

    I bought my Stetson 6X Rancher about 48 years ago.
    I recently cleaned it by brushing it, then soaked it with the kitchen tap and let it dry… any remaining spots were sanded.
    Looks brand new. A good hat will take the rain without any worries.

    That was fantastic! What an amazing difference. My husband has an Eddy Bros that was in a cattleman style...he prefers the Gus style. I had not much trouble reshaping it over my teakettle; the crown stays put, but the brim tends to slightly curl back up and lose the front & back dips. It is Durofelt. Any hints how to make it stay?

    Another question: How easy (or difficult) is it to remove sweat and/or sweatband stains from straw hats? The stains in these old hats have probably been there for some time, and I think probably the leather hat bands' color added to the stain. Thanks!

    Great video, once again, Kevin. Feel like I've learnt so much from watching your channel over the years.
    Do you have any opinion on the Pure Stratoliner? I have a regular Stratoliner (in Sage) and an Akubra Stylemaster; the Stylemaster is my 'everyday' hat (going to work, etc) because it feels more 'substantial' and hardy owing to the felt, but if pushed I prefer the cut and the feel of the Stratoliner, so that's my 'luxury' hat. I've been eyeing up a Pure Stratoliner lately (either in Blue or Tobacco). Would that hit the sweet spot between my love of the regular Stratoliner and the hardiness of the Stylemaster, do you think?

    • @quadrogong1111
      @quadrogong1111  2 роки тому +3

      There’s no comparison in heartiness. Akubra crushes it, get it because u want a nice stratoliner, but don’t expect it to be hearty or do well in the rain like an Akubra, I’m not a fan of Stetson open roads myself,if you’re looking for hearty, go Akubra..
      if u want something that has the open road look, get an open road, but that felt isn’t really rugged or strong..
