We’re always taken with a Tom Mix topper!

This vintage beauty is a true one-of-a-kind find! The large Nutria (Clearnutria) Tom Mix style hat is hallmarked John B. Stetson and originally sold by Bond Bros. out of Pendleton, Oregon. It features a classic rolled edge with original silk and inside leather. It’s well-worn, giving it wonderful character. It also features an attached leather-studded hatband that appears to have been with it a long time.
