Hi Karlos, Your nearest hatter is much closer than you think ;-) http://www.hutfabrik-sutterer.de/ They mostly produce trachten and carnival type hats, but will produce one-off customs based on your requirements. Hope this helps!

Whoops, did I really type "Bates", it should have been "Lock & Co.", but many thanks :eusa_doh:

An excellent display today (as usual), gentlemen :eusa_clap For me, my Bates & Co. Voyager for a sunny Shanghai today

Now that sounds like a proper aircraft :-) I heard that Lufthansa should be adding one to their fleet by the end of this year to go alongside their " Tante JU"

Very, very true, and for once I'm glad I'm tattooed ;) I'm not really into the whole vintage scene, so although shocked when reading the first post, am not in a position to comment. The closest I get to the vintage scene is the occasional rockabilly/rock and roll concert, but here there...

Many thanks as usual for the kind words on my latest hat everyone! Oh that makes me feel really proud ;) It's a real rollup travel hat and as such does not have a crease - just a very soft open crown. After being rolled up, you just need to crease and pinch it into whatever shape you want...

It's been a while since I've been able to post in this thread, but I'm now a proud owner of a Lock & Co. Voyager. I think this is going to be my favourite "go to" hat, and the best thing is that it was a birthday present from my wife, despite the usual "there are too many hats lying around"...

Panizza Royal for me today.

A Singapore Sling (the glass on the left ;) ) on the Long bar of Raffles Hotel Singapore, where the sling was invented:

I couldn't agree more :)

Rebashed Akubra Hamption for me for the last couple of days

Very nice Daniele. By the way, the colour translates as "heron".

Bates Beaver roll-up having just done a fine job of keeping the snow at bay...

Oooh, I want, no, need one of those! Now if they could incorporate an integrated hat brush into it, it would be the perfect travelling companion.
