Brent,
Looking back at that pic, I think that's a 4x Stetson Gus 4" brim with some "trail shaping". I have another Gus in black also. I have quite a number of hats and find that a good 100% beaver hat goes much longer on the trail or other uses than a cheaper production hat and can be good enough to go back in for restoration after many miles.
A lot of my friends have been buying from Mackey Hats
http://www.mackeycustomhats.com/ for a number of years now, with one friend probably having the record with them for hats bought; I'm guessing over 20. They are good hats, but that friend is hard on the equipment, very hard. He gives the old ones away to newbies. I bought a Rand hat from the MT outfit and it's a good hat too. I have one from Jackson Hole Hat that has good felt that has held up for many miles on the trail thru rain and sun but so-so quality of work.
