Years ago I had a friend who managed a Western Spirit in New York City, and they had a Stetson Gambler style hat, all black with a ring of conchos, and I though I thought it looked fantastic, I couldn't afford it at the time. When I DID finally go to buy it, I could never find that same model again and I just assumed that they discontinued it. Nothing I found came close ... UNTIL I saw your ad for the Buffalo Nickel hat. The look, the genuine leather, the moldable brim, the ring of buffalo nickels was like nothing I'd ever seen before. I am very pleased with the quality of the product, and I can easily see myself adding to the collection with more Connor Hats.
