Beautiful hat. I love the ribbon and the edge treatment makes for a unique piece in a modern fedora, for sure.

I was about to make a similar reply. I have read that Fepsa offers felts already pounced but what do I know? I have 3 hats from Hornskov and I am delighted with all three but I have no clue as to the whereabouts of his source for felt bodies.

You might try Falcon Park Hattery.

Too small for my noggin but beautiful fedora - Good Luck on the sale.

I have custom hats from these three and I highly recommend each one (not in any particular order): Falcon Park Hattery, Gannon Hat Co., and Hornskov Hats. I am quite pleased with the craftsmanship of these artisans and all three gave excellent customer service as well as superbly crafted fedoras...

Years ago, I saw an old hatter "fire" a fur felt fedora. He used a sprayer and sprayed alcohol in a fine mist on the fedora, lit the hat that kept flame for about 5 seconds, and then put out the fire. It was a beautiful sight but also served a practical purpose. According to him, the fire...

Yes, and sir, I thank you for the suggestion. I read all the posts from that thread/topic some time ago and the information gleaned is informative.

Agnoulita Hats, I believe, is a hat store in Greece. D’Aquino Hats (also known on Etsy as "Daquino Hats") is in Lisbon. The address is: R. do Comércio 16, 1100-060 Lisboa, Portugal I think that the store is in the historic district. Luisa is a fine lady and you can read a lot about the...
