German & Austrian Hutmachers

It must have been reworked at a later time because the liner would have been stitched. It looks like a Weilheim liner to me so that would make it a very early one based on the 1951 sweatband stamp. It could also be a mix of different parts.

Sure, you are right with the Liner, you can still see a few punctures. It was later re glued.

Hückel Durit Velour, size 6 1/2 Point. This is the beat up one with the rivets and no ribbon. I sent it off to Optimo and it came back looking great. As usual the JHS Velour finish is fantastic. It is unfortunate the liner logo is faded because it appears to be customized. I have a few other hats from Martin Brömme Nuremberg. I am pretty sure it's pre 1940 but it could be later.

Gypseyes, Welcome here!

Yes you have two nice Mayser hats. Both hats are Trachten Hats. The first black one is a Mayser Ausseer Trachten Hat. Traditionally Hat.
You wear it mostly in Bavaria or Austria. My guess, from the 70s. Mayser is a German Hat Manufacturer, still in business.
The second Hat is an Alpine Hat. Maybe Sichel fur felt! Relatively New.

Very nice older Hückel fur felt Hat. Hückel no longer in business! Now is the manufacturer Tonak in Czechia!
My guess, 60s! Could be older but i am not sure!
Maybe Steve ( mayserwegener ) knows more!
