Jones Style Hat

I am looking for a good Jones style hat. The type Red Green wears. I used to be able to find them in Ohio when I was younger, but they are harder to find now. I have tried Cabelas and LL bean. Their hats disappoint me. Does anyone know of any other sources. I was hoping these hats might be more popular in other areas. Thanks Bryan

Brian,check out Johnson Woollen Mills,in Johnson Vermont.
I bought mine there 45 years ago,and they still make them.
They come in a red and black plaid pattern.
Do a search for Jones Hat on their site.

I don't often watch Red Green (although I've met Steve several times as we lived in the same area!) but...,

A Filson hat might fit the bill.
I have an 'Original Shelter Hat' in green and an 'Original Packer Hat' in tan tin cloth. They are great hats and indestructible. (the 12oz tin cloth is real thick). They are also USA made.
I love them, my wife hates them (and that makes me want to wear them even more!)

I bought my first Tilley 20 years ago when they were marketed to outdoorsmen. Now they target the geriatric safari crowd (Guppies). The Tilley is the best hat made but I can't wear it in public any more!!!
