A new line of John Wayne cowboy toppers is hitting store shelves.
“No shadow has loomed larger or longer over the American landscape than his,” says Stan Redding, president of RHE Hatco, of John Wayne. “[H]e’s a great ambassador for not only America but the Western way of life.”
Hundred Acre isn’t the only one paying tribute to The Duke. Redding and his company have likewise partnered with John Wayne Enterprises to produce a new line of cowboy toppers. Scheduled to hit store shelves this January, the John Wayne collection by Resistol will feature both classic and modern styles in straw, wool, and fur felt?—?all made with only the finest materials. Notes son Ethan Wayne, “I know my dad would have had a real big smile on his face when he saw the care and attention to detail that the folks at Resistol are putting into each hat, as if they were making it for the man himself.”
