Nice man. I picked this guy up online and couldn't be happier with it. First holder I seen with suction cups... nice that I don't have to put screws into my truck.
If you want a hat of a similar shape, I can’t tell the actual material of this hat but it looks like it might be leather? The hat I personally can recommend is a harvested wild Kangaroo leather hat. They are foldable and crushable, you can put them in a bag and then when you pop them open and shake them out they go right back into shape. I love mine and wear it daily for K9 Search and Rescue work in the very hot western state in the US where I live. You can also water proof them with leather wax, and mine looks better than the day I bought it. It comes in different colors and styles but here’s the one I personally have:

I bought the Barmah because my husband loves his so much. I also wanted a cool looking but very durable and practical hat I didn’t have to care for, and I fold this one up to travel with it. I also customized the hat band by removing it and having my own attached, and putting a feather in it. Hope you find a great hat for your needs!
They sell hat hangers all over the place. Look for something like THIS one that hangs it upside down. Otherwise all the luck will fall out. Or maybe something about losing the shape.
I have a Stetson that's very similar. You can find it here. Stetson SWMTSK-8132 Mountain Sky Hat https://www.amazon.com/dp/B007BG9Y0S/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_JRFECBBX2MQYYEF3EKJ3?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
I would do 61 and buy hat spacers Spacers
One of the most interesting low brow histories of Austin is the story of the Cedar Choppers. There’s a book by that title and I’d highly recommend it.
