bought a Atwood "Hereford long Oval" hat some years back, I think its a palm leaf construction. Went to use it the other day and after wearing it a while I noticed that the hat band inside was flaking off and sticking to my forehead because it had rotted out. I thought it was a pretty good hat when I purchased it as it cost about $75. Is it worth trying to put a new/better hat band in it (the original band appeared to be a type of man made leather/plastic impregnated cloth) or do you just throw it away and get a new hat. What is a decent brand and price for a standard palm leaf type cowboy hat? (with a real leather hat band)
