This Presidents’ Day, we’re tipping our hats to the Open Road, Stetson of choice for multiple U.S. heads of state, from Harry S. Truman and Dwight D. Eisenhower to Lyndon B.

That’s also “why it’s been dubbed ‘the Presidents’ hat.’” Read the full essay, and pick up a copy of the book, at the link in bio.
