Fur felt or wool? Fedora might do a reblock of the fur, but no one I know will bother with a wool.

I know those well. I owned (and wore out) two of those old '84 Stetson's myself. :wink:

Thats the one, or at least looks like it! The felt on mine was darker brown, though. Could have been the way it aged over time.
:D

Mmh well I took some pictures of it before selling and I can assure you that it always appeared of many different colours :lol: from rich brown to faded grey (for the lovers of the nongrayraiders hat theory :lol: )

In this case I fear hanson that it cannot be reblocked... but I leave the last word to the experts

They are lucasfilm licensed in the white box with black and brown trim, with the beaver and bird crest. The lining is gold with black center and has gold writing on the black center(stetson,lucasfilm info). They don't say fur or wool anywhere,but i think they feel like felt. The sweatband is not leather. Thanks hanson.

If it's the wool felt ones that I'm thinking of, you can't reblock them from all that I know. All that effort would be put to better use if you just bought an Akubra or Adventurebilt.
