    My favorite for casual summer use is my Stetson Airway... Great for being out in the sun...
  • @ttop64
    Nick looked hands down the most dapper in the Borsalino imo . It and the Optimo John was wearing were my personal favorites of the hats shown. I like hats with a tilted down brim in front.

    I have a Stetson Back Bay. I get plenty of compliments on it. Twice I have had people yell from their cars how good it looks. I look forward to summer so that I can wear it!
  • Just recently purchased a Scala Roswell. I absolutely love it and It really is the center of attention when I walk into a room.

    I have the Big John from Goorin. It was discontinued and I'm now selling mine. Barely worn and like new. If anyone is looking for one hit me up. Size is medium, up to 71/8.
  • Got mine at Newt at the Royal Hotel in Oahu, HI...awesome hat and amazing service
  • @kbrett2004
    You fellas look great in those hats. I just recently got into wearing hats myself and hope to pull them off as well as you two.

    Review Akubras! They are Australian, make all kinds of hats, and their felt hats are both superior to & cheaper than modern Stetsons because they are basically waterproof and can be in the rain unlike other Stetsons of that price range (around $200). Get the Akubra Adventurer for Indiana Jones’ same style.
  • i have two stetson, a wool felt stratoliner, and a silverbelly 6x open road. I also have an ultrafino brand panama hat. Love my hats.

    I have a straw hat from Optimo Hats in Chicago. Excellent quality. I also have a $13 straw hat from Costco. Great value. My cutting the grass hat.

    Nick & John What a grat collabo
  • You should definitely look into the Hemp Special Edition Stratoliner from Stetson! It’s slightly more expensive than the basic Milan straw Strat but it’s all natural fiber and very nice wearing, very much worth every cent and a nice retro touch.
  • Nice video. stetson didn't make the hats for the Indiana Jones movies though. It was Herbert Johnson and Adventurebilt.

    Video idea/ request TLB Mallorca Red Wing Sawmill or Roughneck
