Boss
of the Town
Crown:
Open
OR Texas Flat
Brim: Flat Bound
Hatband: 1 1/2" Satin with bow.
Color
shown: Black and Pecan
The
first Boss of the Plains was sold in Central
City Colorado in 1865, and quickly became a
marketing marvel. Everyone in the west had to
have one, and Stetson was hard pressed to keep
up with the demand. Most people think John B.
Stetson invented the Boss of the Plains. He
did not. Mister Stetson was a talented promoter
and marketer - and there in lay his gift. Christy's
Hats of Bristol, England, held the patent on
this design and after losing a lengthy court
battle, Stetson ended up having to pay a licensing
fee to Christy's Hats for the use of the Boss
of the Plains design. No fooling. |

The

as Wyatt Earp in Tombstone. Flat

and has a Texas Flat Crown and bound edge
- like the cowpoke above right. |

Crown:
Texas Straight

:: Hand Shaped
Hatband: 1 1/2" Satin with Bow
Color shown: Bone
Big
kettle curl gives this hat it's unique look

it, Paladin had two hats. A good hat for in
town to wear with his good suit of clothes,
and a trail hat for when he was in the saddle.
Our

one, and here's what he had to say about his
custom western hat from The Last Best West,
"Longfellow, I just received my hat,
It's perfect!! The fit, the look and everything
could not be better. I can't thank you enough."
God
Bless you and your staff, Oscar 'Paladin' Carey

Mister
Howard
Pitts'
hat from The Assassination of Jesse James.
. . .
Crown:
Homburg Dent ::
Brim: Kettle Curl; Bound
Hatband:1 1/2" satin with bow.
Color:
Black in pure
beaver fur felt.
This
is more of a Town Hat or Western Dress Hat.
The Homburg dent and large Kettle Curl set this
hat apart, and make it an excellent choice to
be worn with a good suit of clothes. An authentic
design from the late 19th century this style
of hat was worn all over the world.
Brad
Pitt plays a morose Jesse James, who
after a life time of being hunted lives in a
world of paranoia and self delusion. A dark
slow moving western, The Assassination of
Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford has
been called by some people great film making;
and maybe it is. The clothes, firearms, acting
are all great - but the narrative and the moody
staging of the scenes, produces a sad story,
reminiscent of the atmospheric westerns of the
1970s. Macabe and Mrs. Miller, and Buffalo
Bill and the Indians come quickly to mind.

OUR
MOST COMMON HAT QUESTION
Q: I'm looking for a ____ Hat. I checked your product
catalogue and didn't see it. Can you make it?
A: Yes. As I'm sure you can appreciate it's just not
possible to show all the different variations of crowns
and brims. If it's made from fur-felt and you can supply
us a good picture - yes we can make it. Generally we
already carry the same style of hat, we just shape it
based on the photo or if it's a movie hat we shape it
from watching the movie and seeing the hat from all
possible angles to get the look just so. We can do
up to a 7" (inch) high crown and a 6" wide
brim. Click for

A
Note about Color
Color
variances caused by individual computer
monitors are beyond our control.
Light
colors will reflect heat the best -
while dark colors will retain the heat
the most - with black being the worst
for staying hot (black absorbs sunlight).
However black is the most formal color
so bowlers and top hats were generally
black or dark gray. For the first 15-20
years cowboy hats were marketed - your
choice of color was black and about
3 shades of brown.

We've

Trail
Dust
Many
customers have been requesting that
we dirty up their new hats to make them
look trail worn. Pictured at right is
a Dusty Augustus - our Augustus
with about 2 years worth of trail dust
- as if a working cowboy had been wearing
it.
We've
got three different degrees of trail
dust. Light (add $55.00) - medium (add
$75.00), and heavy (add $95.00). Light
would be what you see at the left on
the Dusty Augustus; medium would
be like the dusting on the
Rossitter; and heavy trail
dust looks like our Josey
Wales.
This
is a similar process that costume designers
apply to hats in the movies and t. v.
Looks authentic and yer friends will
swear yer just got off a trail drive,
or a hitch in the Horse Cavalry! You
can add trail dust during the check
out process - or request it when you
call your order in. Orders call toll

Even
this cattleman crease has an old west look to

so they could easily pick up their hats. The
modern cattleman's crease we associate more
with Rodeo cowboys, Country Music, and that

last decade of the 19th century - and today
variations of it are seen more than any other

Crown:

Color: Black in 20X
:: Hatband: 2" Satin ribbon with Bow
Naturally
enough this style of hat got its name from its
resemblance to a pork pie. These small brimed
hats were first seen in the mid 1800s and were
a popular British town style hat. In America
they were worn by many soldiers during the American
Civil War, and sailors still refer to their
white caps as Pork Pies.
Now
a days this style is favoured by many musicians,
including jazz and blues players, and can sometimes
be seen on the heads of stars like Brad Pitt
and Johnny Depp.

This
was the fashion item that drove the exploration
of North America and established the fur-trade.
Beaver fur, when mixed with rabbit fur and felt
produces a wonderfully waterproof material -
ideal for making hats. The Top Hat is a timeless
wonder still seen when the Upper Crust mingle
at the Opera and other such events. Like the
Bowler, the Top Hat was worn by all classes
of people and seen most everywhere.

Fashion Tip!
Get
a plain silk scarf, and a buckle and wrap
it around leaving a healthy tale at the back
- hanging down - now it looks feminine and
period correct. Looks great on the Top Hat,
the Bowler, the Hickock. . .virtually all

in a classic Indian rifle scabbard.

| How
to make an Old West Character Cowboy Hat
|
| Now
that you've seen our great hats we're sure you'll
want your own Custom Hat - so what are you going
to do with your old one? It'd be a pity to relegate
it to discard. Our
solution is to rotate it out and make a great
Character Hat.
Years
ago I read a story about how Tom Mix used to
crease and work all his custom hats himself
in the shower. So I decided to take his advice
and am more than pleased with the results. The
amount of time it takes is up to you. I had
the Ellsworth fashioned in less than 5 minutes
- then a further half hour fine tuning the look.
