Stetson "Nostalgia"

I realize this model is no longer being made...but it looked sharp from some of the photos I've seen on the "net. Anyone know any shops or on-line stores that still carry it? Cheers--Feng

PS--Happy Birthday (Thursday) to Michaelson! :!:

I was wondering the same thing. Not that I would by one, but it look interesting from what I've seen in a few pics.

I remember that being the golden goose of Stetsons (for Indy hats)
because it had a great crown height and came open crown.

There's one on the main site here:

You use to be able to get those from the outlet store for practically nothing until they finally ran out.
If you find one, either
A: Don't let go of it
B: How much do you want for it...

So it was really a good hat.

I'll keep my eye open for one. Do you have any idea how much one would cost if I fould one?

Brand ne w they ran about 80 bucks. The outlet used to give them away for about $25.

I also always wondered if it was the same quality of felt that "The Ark" and "The Temple" came in.

Thanks to all for come-backs...Dalexs...what is the outlet to which you referred? Cheers--Feng

Post by **Dalexs** » Sun May 22, 2005 11:26 am

It is the
Stetson Hat Factory Outlet
3601 South Leonard Road, St Joseph, MO 64503-1764
816-233-3286

Unfortunately they do not have a website. You have to call and see what they have in stock and order by phone (or visit.)

They used to sell the Nostalgia for $25. And then Stetson stopped making them.

Can i say my personal opinion without being killed?

:

I think the stetson nostalgia looks like the 1984 licensed by lucasfilm ltd.
Now i know my head will be cut for what i just said, but it's just an opinion

Actually, it has a better shaped crown, and a bit wider brim. Other than that, you're right. Regards. Michaelson
