looking for vinatge mid -dark grey hat

[metropd]

Hi, I was looking for a cool or neutral (NO WARM) mid to dark grey fedora in 2 3/4 brim a 1 1/2 to to 2 inch band in a teardrop in 7 1/8. I checked with optimo and their all out of greys other than charcoal. The reason I say not brown or red greys is I have 2 warm grey hats and no suits or clothes to wear them with. thank you.

Yes, very much so. Whats the brim width 2 3/4? Is the felt pliable enough to put into a teardrop? If so, could I create a bogart front and center pinch, that would be a definate seller. I have a couple vintage fedoras I could possibly see if I could give them to you for free, just need to consult with my parents. How much do you want?

At the bottom the grey fedora owned by Kentucky blues is the hat style and color I really, really, really wanted.

I have an older Dobbs that you might be interested in...it is a snug 7¼. The color may not be right though.

If you want more details, let me know. Good luck in your search!

Vintage Dobbs Fedora

Hi, metropd, you can contact me via messenger I am fortinob@hotmail.com, about the hat it is pliable and very soft to the touch, the crown has the teardrop shape, the brim is 2 3/4 or 2 7/8, I bought this hat few years a go in a antique shop in San Diego, it cost me $95.00 and only used a couple of times.
