They are very unique styled hats for sure. And have grown on me. I’ll have to check my Lee... but I do not think they stamped a model name on the sweat. My most recent Disney acquisition arrived and its manufacturing tag says Disney Hats. Danbury CT looking just like the Lee tags.

What another great week, Stefan. A heathered Gorasgu and a nutria homburg. What a delight.

I have been wearing this “His Excellency” homburg quite a bit the last few days. This is a Dalton production, though it doesn’t say so anywhere.

I'm going to say that's a Lord's Hat, not a Hommie, as there is no brim binding. Interestingly, my "His Excellency" says Dalton on it.

I removed the brim binding so i could manipulate the brim more - it's originally a homburg.
Yes, your "His Excellency" is the reason I know this as a Dalton.

RRR St. Regis conversion.
Interesting Nathan and Jim @Frunobulax
I'd say a Lords Hat is more than just a Homburg sans brim binding. It's also to do with the overall shape: compact, tight, etc.
Why would Dalton not have their name on your hat, Nathan? It sure looks like a hat liner of some of Jim's Daltons: of which he knows I admire.
Let's work together on this guys. We might all be a little bit wiser in the end. Isn't that why we're on the FL?
Thanks, Joe.

So here is how this hat originally looked before I removed the binding. This was before I started feeling a conscience about cutting up old hats, but I still have the binding if I want to put it back on.
The question of the relation between the “His Excellency” line and Dalton is interesting, but we don’t have a clear answer. There are no indications inside my hat that it’s a Dalton, but here is the start of the posts on this thread from last August where Fruno and I sorted out that it is a Dalton (read this post and then a few further on the same page):
You can also have a look in the “Going Atomic with Dalton” thread where other “His Excellency” hats are presented:

Great Wrestlemania hat!
I have to admit, it’s been a fun night watching Wrestlemania. The women’s match was amazing - they were fantastic athletes!

It was great fun. Now I’m watching the old Wrestlemanias. Just 39 years to catch up on! Lol.
What I need is a WrestleMania hat for next year - I can’t imagine much to compare to your Musketeers, though.

Same with the label in mine.
With these flamboyant styled fedoras and equally “fabulous” model names I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if you happened upon an old magazine ad calling your Lee GP clone the, “Rainbow Rider”!
