Western Hat Bag

[Jase68]

Hi all,

I am trying to find a bag to carry my high quality Western hat while riding my motorbike, I can pad lock the bag to the pillion handle or a shoulder type bag should work.

This isn't a cheap hat, so I don't want to stuff it up.

Hat brim measures 14" wide, 16" front to back and 5" high.

Points added for who can recognise the hat LOL

Look for used drum cases on your local market. Ive wearing hats for years, and used to tour a lot and would stash my hats and things in snare drum or rack tom cases and fly with them and they always worked great. Also have a few hat specific luggage cases that I bought from a local hat shop.

If you were in Nashville I’d have several options that I could just give to you!

@chrisjohnnick Thanks, I will have to order from the US I imagine so if you know of any Nashville shops that do international shipping that would be great. If fact it has to go back to LA for an adjustment and could probably have something shipped to the maker.

Cheers

Jase

@Jase68 this style is what I see most commonly used for western hats. Perhaps a bit bulky.

Love gambler style.

May do a teardrop for my next one though.

I’m club teardrop for life. I could have a stratoliner in every color.

Does anyone know if a Tote type bag would be sufficient to carry the hat on the bike? If so any recommendations. Obviously a hard case is ideal, but they seem to be super bulky.
