Frazee Ridge, SASS #54171 7 Posted June 11, 2013 Howdy Pards: I'm trying to find a "Walt Longmire" hat. Havn't had much luck so far, but maybe I just don't know where to look. Anybody know what kind of hat Robert Taylor wears in the Longmire series? Thanks ahead of time for any responses. Frazee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Utah Bob #35998 5,416 Posted June 11, 2013 According to Craig Johnson, the author of the Longmire books, it was made in Billings by Mike Hodges. http://www.criminalelement.com/blogs/2012/06/longmire-by-craig-johnson-author-robert-taylor-western-tv-sheriff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grizzly Dave 538 Posted June 11, 2013 If you take any good hat maker several pictures of it, they'll be able to replicate the look for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Frazee Ridge, SASS #54171 7 Posted June 11, 2013 Thanks to all of you who replied. Thanks Utah Bob for the picture. There is a place at our cabin that handles riding and western gear and they can get Stetson so now I have someplace to go. Thanks everyone. Frazee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Utah Bob #35998 5,416 Posted June 11, 2013 Frazee, it's the Stetson American Buffal Collection Here's the tag from the hat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frazee Ridge, SASS #54171 7 Posted June 12, 2013 Thanks to everyone, and thanks especially to Utah Bob for sending a picture of the tag. Now I can get busy trying to get one. That is, as soon as I get finished with my wife's "To Do" list. Frazee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TravelerAZ 0 Posted November 29, 2014 The hat was made by Mike Hodges of H-Bar hats of Billings, MT. I just got a picture mine which he just finished and is sending off. Utah Bob is correct. Those guys in New Mexico make a very nice hat but it's more than twice what Hodges charges, and after all, he is the original. The author, Craig Johnson, tells it like it is in the link Bob provided.
