I am an old retired Deputy Sheriff, those cmhats folks are out of my price range. Those derby's are made for skinny folks, not an old tall, fat retired Cop.

My Dear Lawdog, do not sell yourself short - Oliver Hardy was 6 foot 1 and over 300 pounds and wore his derby quite well ....
not to mention the Coonskin Cap he wore opposite John Wayne in The Fighting Kentuckian.

Well...that's one reason I like mine (aside from its inherent stylish nature).  It's one of the few hats I've found that doesn't make my face look fat. 

No more than the inevitable.

I fear I suffer from the opposite effect - "too much" hat and I look like a bean-pole with a giant sombrero perched atop it ....
add to that my inherent receding chinline and "weasel-like" countenance and the derby just makes me look like Stan Laurel and people double over when'er I pass by ....

Howdy, this here is my first post. Not a big fan of posting but I do enjoy reading and lurking about. Any whoot, I have broke my silence to support this here hat faction... goes to show that not all of us "shooters" is a ranch or cattle worker. Some of us is plain ol’ good nature, city folk that make a honest living by the good ol' trait of bushwhacking!  ;D

Hi,

I just wanted to paste this pic to show that I am a standing member of the Derby Gang ...

My moniker is my great grandfather's name. He served with the 2nd Florida Mounted Regiment in the Civil War. Afterward, he came home, packed his wife into a wagon, and was one of the first NorteAmericanos on the Frio River southwest of San Antonio ..... Kinda where present day Dilley is ...

Down at Walkers 47's swap meet yesterday and a kid about ten years old said he liked my hat.  I talked to him for a bit and we may have a new convert.

Wait....

If it wasn't so much fun sliding, I wouldn't have slid in the first place.  I have slud ('tis so a real word.) for so long now I couldn't stop if I wanted to.
