Stetson Pinnacle Beaver Fur Felt Fedora

Comments about Stetson Pinnacle Beaver Fur Felt Fedora:

My grandfather owned a funeral parlor in Texas in the 1950's-1960's and, as a 'dress cowboy' Stetson was de rigueur for solemn occasions, grandpa had at least one dozen in the standard Texan dress hat at that time: the Royal DeLuxe Open Road style in the Silverbelly color. I don't recall any other styles or colors. Grandpa was a classic himself, and his wardrobe followed suit (pun!). He died at a young age - smoking 2-3 packs of Winston's per day damaged his already dicky heart, and he had his one, and only, heart attack. My father and I inherited the heart problems, but only I inherited grandpa's collection of Stetson hats. Those hats are long gone - lost or destroyed in cross-continent or cross-country moves, primarily. But my love affair with Stetson hats never died. I replaced the cowboy hats with different styles of Stetsons over these five-plus decades... I usually buy fedoras - even Panama straw fedoras - but I like a Stetson Homberg with the right suit (no wardrobe is complete without a black Homberg!), and I even keep a Stetson black derby in a hat box buried deep in my closet. These are not my grandpa's Stetsons. My worst trait is wordiness. So on to my review. I now have the Pinnacle in three colors - black, graphite and, most recently from DelMonico, caribou. I wish that Stetson would make a Silverbelly Pinnacle - as it is, I've settled for the Silverbelly Stratoliner for a 'neutral' look. I also had the slight ribbon replaced with a color-matched wider ribbon but kept the pin in place. Stetson does a terrific job of keeping, when able, or creating when needed, classic styles and the Pinnacle is, indeed, upon the summit of all fedoras of the past and those currently manufactured. Some younger men insist on taking a perfect fedora such as the Pinnacle and wearing it in a style that looks awkward and strange to me: a sort of oversized yarmulka look, with the hat resting on the rear of the head. When I suggest that the Pinnacle can morph into your perso

I put this purchase on hold for quite a while. Not exactly a must have item when one already has a couple of nice hats, just none in beaver fur. Very good and well made product. Shipped on time and packed well. A slight 2 inch long wrinkle on the crown ribbon was a bummer but a quick touch of the fingernail over it a few times and a dash of steam, all better. The Mink color really looks good, rich, well done. I am happy with this purchase, and recommend it to anyone who can do so to go ahead.

It's a beautiful hat. I get compliments on it all the time. I'm sure I'm the only one who notices that there's a slight imperfection in the brim where the felt was cut--a slight discoloration, a bit of roughness--that I'm sure will go away with time, or become less noticeable. Which is to say, I was so excited to have it that I didn't ask what could be done about the slight imperfection, and now it's a few months later and I can't bring myself to do so.

The Stetson Pinnacle is a classic hat and is fashioned from beaver felt. This is a top-shelf hat. It comes in various colors. The Mink is very rich looking, but it comes in good-looking Caribou and Black. The feather is readily removable if that's not something you want to sport. This is one of Stetson's best models.

My life partner describes herself as a visual person. And she's right, she has an amazing talent that I have many stories about. She knew I was awaiting delivery of a new hat (Pinnacle in Caribou), but never saw a picture and hadn't paid any attention. I own a handful of fine lids, but I have never seen her eyes light up the way they did when she first saw me wearing this hat. It was amazing to see because she lit up like a Christmas tree and said, "That hat is beautiful." In an urban, suburban, financial district work environment, I am seeing this as a fall / winter all-arounder. It is very comfortable to wear, feels great, and looks terrific.

I decided a couple of months ago to start wearing a fedora hat every day. Toward that end I have now purchased three felt hats and one panama straw hat. The Pinnacle fit perfectly and is a beautiful hat. It almost makes me look good; not quite because after all, it's a hat, not a miracle worker.

I got a great quality Stetson Hat that's good for everything from every day wear to formal dress. The hat was very fairly priced for its quality and the customer service was excellent. I'd recommend both the hat and DelMonico to anyone.

Great hat true to size. I enjoy a slightly oversize 2" brim. Hat keeps me warm especially on those very cold mornings and my hair is still damp from the shower. Just a great look with a dak wool overcoat to the office or out for dinner.

I am in the mountains of the west a lot. I hunt everywhere. These hats are awesome and always fit great and are warm and comfortable in all bad weather. The quality of pure Beaver felt can never be under valued. Del Monico Hatters get IT!
