The Pure Open Road features a premier roan sweatband with gold lacing and a 4 ¼” crown outfitted with a grosgrain hat band and a commemorative 1865 hat pin, a nod to our over 150 years history of making the finest hats in the world. Since 1948, it has been finished with a traditional, hand-pressed cattleman crease, and has been worn by modern pioneers and trailblazers ever since, from artists and outlaws to Presidents (including, most notably, LBJ, who was rarely photographed on his Texas ranch without his Open Road). Introduced in 1937, the Open Road was originally sold with an open crown, which could then be creased to the customer’s liking. With its western-style crown and 2 ¾” bound-edge brim, the Pure Open Road easily transitions from country to city, and looks equally sharp on a woman or a man. With only a handful in production, the Pure Open Road is an investment piece that turns any evening into a special occasion. I like it so much that I'm having him make me another just like it but with the Western styling.Handcrafted in the U.S.A., the Pure Open Road is made with luxurious 100% pure beaver fur felt for unbeatable softness and natural resilience. Heck, you can even get a brand-new one made just for you! I *really, really* like the custom OR-Style Fedora that Art made for me back in the Spring. So, there are several brands of OR-Style hats out there if you can't readily acquire a Stetson one. However, I *do* need a much larger sample size before I can figure all this out for myself, of course! In time, in time, grasshopper! This is a disease that does not require an immediate cure (which is to buy hats until you're sick of them, I think). Gee, it almost makes sense! lolĪlso, I have yet to acquire a Stetson 'One-Hundred' OR, which I am willing to bet is nicer than any of the others! In this case, though, there is an improvement within the brand associated with the various markings. Of course, we all know how useless it is to compare those X's. Resistol 'XdoubleX' (so, is that two X's or four of 'em?) The order of 'niceness' (felt, sweatband, ribbon, build etc) goes as such: I have one regular Stetson OR and one 'Twenty-Five'. I have one 'No-X' and one 'XdoubleX' Resistol. I have two vintage Resistol OR-style hats, and two Stetson Open Roads.
