The Nantuka is a perfect example of an ivy cap that's new this season from John B. Stetson. It's a lined wool blend cap in the longer duckbill style, with leather trim including a leather under-brim. The cadet cap is called The Malba, and it too is a wool blend cap trimmed with leather. Look for the Stetson embroidery inside, on the plaid lining. The new Harwinton is a very handsome wool blend newsboy cap with sewn down brim, made to stand out with rich contrast panels.

Other caps from John B. Stetson include The Hatteras II, a newsboy in 100% wool with a bold herringbone pattern. The brim is sewn down and the cap's lining boasts the trademark "American Spirit" Stetson embroidery. Made from the same material as The Hatteras II, The Hiko Ivy is a richly textured longshoreman's cap with a sumptuous satin lining and sewn down brim.

When it rains on your parade, try not to cry. It's girly and anyway you've got a great choice of rain hats from Stetson that'll make wet days fun. The Andes, for example, is a pinch front, snap-brim rain hat made from water repellent poplin. Depending on your hat size, you can get it in Navy, British Tan or Black. The Gable is a another Stetson rain hat, this one done up in a classic hat style, with a brim that's very nearly stingy (at 2 1/8 inches) plus it's trimmed with a leather band. Dress or casual, you can wear this baby anywhere. For another choice in Stetson rain gear, you've got a poplin ivy cap called The Drizzler, offered in sizes Small to XXL, at a price that lets you keep an extra handy in the car and at the office in case of sudden downpours.

Of course Stetson does traditional hats for men better than anyone, and their City fedora is perfect for a night on the town. Made from sovereign quality fur felt, The City boasts a 2 1/2 inch down turned brim, and is lined in satin and finished with a leather sweatband for added comfort. It certainly doesn't get any more classic than the traditional black Derby from Stetson made from 100% fur felt. The brim is 2 1/8 inches and has a lightly bound edge; the trim is neat and the lined hat is finished with a leather sweat.

Now that's Stetson.
