Stetson Gus 10X Straw Cowboy Hat
This is a classic 'Gus' style straw cowboy hat manufactured by the renowned Stetson company. The hat is crafted from high-quality Shantung straw, featuring a tight, uniform weave that indicates a high level of craftsmanship, typically associated with the 10X quality grade. The color is a light, natural cream or off-white. The 'Gus' crease is distinguished by a tall, sloping crown that is pinched significantly at the front and tapers downward toward the rear. The brim measures approximately 3 3/4 inches with a slight upward curve at the edges. A decorative brown leather double-cord hatband finishes the design, knotted at the side with trailing tassels and a small metallic Stetson brand pin. Based on the uniform weave and crisp shape, the hat appears to be in very good condition with no visible fraying, staining, or structural collapse. This style rose to fame through the character Augustus 'Gus' McCrae in Lone Dove and remains a staple of Western wear. The interior would likely feature an 1/8th inch leather sweatband and branded gold foil stamping on the crown lining.
