Description: Brown felt, distressed with burn marks. Brown alligator band, distressed chocolate leather braid, jute twine and a turkey feather. Accessories can be sewn into the hat or tied on, so you can swap them out to match what you’re wearing.
Crown: Pointed telescoped crown with dimples on each side.
Brim: 4” western lift.
Sweatband: Genuine lambskin.
Felt: Choose from 100% wool, 5x beaver blend fur, 20% beaver, 100% rabbit fur, 50% beaver with 50% rabbit or 100% beaver.
Cowboy toothpick: A horseshoe nail as a cowboy toothpick, on the left side, because that’s the Forged Glory side. Monogrammed with the letter R for Revenant Hats.
Size: To get the right size measure your head where the hat will sit in centimeters. If you have a head shape that is hard to fit or if you want a perfect fit, conformers are available upon request.
To get a conformer you will either need to purchase the hat first, or send a $270 deposit. The deposit will be refunded or it can be used as store credit when we get the conformer back. If we do not get the conformer back we will not make the hat and we will keep the $270 deposit or $270 of the money used to purchase the hat. If a conformer is used, we will send you the block that is made, it is useful to have when storing your hat to keep its shape.
Please contact us with any other customization request and we will make it happen.
The 100% beaver blend is hard to source. It may take us 3 months to a year to get.
Drill Sgt Owen’s, Ssgt Baxter, the two men who taught me how to shoot
When I joined the Army, I had never shot a gun before. I was afraid I wouldn’t pass the rifle qualification in basic training—if you don’t pass, you get held back.
I told Drill Sergeant Owens about my fear, and he took me under his wing to teach me. I still barely passed—but I passed!!
When I got to my first unit, Staff Sergeant Baxter was doing everything he could to get into sniper school, which he eventually did and passed. I asked him to teach me how to shoot. At my next rifle qualification, I shot expert—and continued to do so for the rest of my career.
