This limited edition is a bold reimagining of a Stetson icon and features a commanding profile that recalls the rugged, frontier-ready styles seen in the early days of the American West. The Boss Raw Edge takes its name and draws inspiration from one of Stetson’s original western hats, a model favored by legendary figures including Buffalo Bill Cody. In that era, the raw edges of Stetson hats were a testament to their quality as the brims held their shape and maintained a clean, unraveled edge with no need for binding or stitching.
Handcrafted in Texas from premier 10X quality felt for unbeatable softness and natural resilience, the Boss Raw Edge has a custom grizzly finish, in which the felt is brushed to achieve its heritage appearance and signature downy texture. Its shadow-casting, vintage-inspired silhouette is a direct descendant of early western hats, including the one featured in Lon Megargee’s iconic painting “The Last Drop from His Stetson,” with a formidable 7” slope crown that is creased by hand and a 4 ¼” hand-curled raw edge brim.
Like many western hats in the 19th-century, the Boss Raw Edge is styled with a grosgrain band. A JBS branding iron hat pin nods to our founder John B. Stetson, whose trailblazing legacy continues to live on in everything we make. A handsewn premium roan leather sweatband and gold deluxe embroidered satin liner provide an all-day, secure, comfortable fit. Includes a STETSON premier hat box.
