SOOOO Expensive
So I priced a new cowboy hat for my dad for his birthday---- a stetson will run from $249-- $669.
I ended up getting him a Justin for about $80 less. Luckily my siblings are going in on it too. You only turn 70 once though.
So what have you noticed that the price is HIgh on-- I mean absolute sticker shock?

My wife wanted a new house and I wanted a new paint job for the CJ. Guess which one won, and guess which one was more expensive :|

My wife wanted a cat, I didn't want a cat, so we compromised and got a cat kind of thing right?

Does this pretty much start a "Whats soo expensive thread?" If so, then boots.
The hat I got was an Australian oilskin hat. Mold-able brim, waterproof and it breaths. I think I paid about 100 for it. I think it's also crush-able too, but I don't think I'll try it out.

Haha, If you feel like it I guess! I only wear it in my truck though. My tall A$% and a brimmed hat don't really fit too well in my car.

Trucks and cowboy like hats go together. I've never been able to pull it off in a sedan though!
