1865 Distressed Open Road Royal Deluxe Sale Online

Crafted (and artfully distressed) by hand in the U.S.A., the 1865 Distressed Open Road Royal Deluxe combines the key features of the Royal Deluxe—the supple feel, flexible finish and snap brim—with unique style details. Like all Open Roads, the 1865 Distressed Royal Deluxe easily transitions from city to country, and looks equally sharp on a woman or a man.

Introduced in 1937, the Open Road was originally sold with an open crown, which could then be creased to the customer’s liking. Since 1948, it has been finished with a traditional, hand-pressed cattleman crease, and has been worn by modern pioneers and trailblazers ever since, from artists and outlaws to Presidents (including, most notably, LBJ, who was rarely photographed on his Texas ranch without his Open Road).

The 1865 Distressed Open Road Royal Deluxe features a genuine leather sweatband and a 4 ¼” crown outfitted with a grosgrain hat band, an eye-catching feather detail and a hat pin honors Stetson’s Western heritage—and a nod to the pioneering spirit that lives on in every hat we sell.
