I'm going to be singing your version of Merle's song from now on :)

I'm afraid I've no idea where C&F had their hats made. Is there any kind of label under the sweat?

Ha ha! That’s exactly how I say it when singing that tune with Mighty Merle! :)

Thanks for the comments on my C&F!
So are they all built in France? Or were some built elsewhere for some store, or just what?
I couldn’t figure that out by reading threads.

Just to follow up on your C&F hat question, Randall. I found this old thread:

https://www.thefedoralounge.com/thr...-wearing-today-1.19520/page-1707#post-1230648

My guess would be that C&F had hats made by various companies. Some were French, but not all. Perhaps if it doesn't say "made in France", it's not.

Pecan beaver felt custom from Mike Miller at NW Hat Co. A longtime favorite. This came open crown and the first bash was a wide center crease. Now it's got a diamond crease and has made a nice home here.

Sun is peeking out of the clouds today but rain in the forecast, running 40° - 50°F today. Sorry for those still in the freezing weather and especially those without power. We have been lucky and our electricity service has stayed on even through the freezing rain when so many others lost power. NW Hat Co Pecan_12_18_03.jpg

Thanks, for the link and info, Steve.
Very helpful.
I carefully looked behind the sweat and saw a reorder tag that gave up nothing useful and another tag that stated its color as Cubatan and under style said, C&F and then size.
Nothing else.
It’s a well made hat with superlative felt, so had to be made by a top flight company.
