I've seen no mention, pro or con, regarding this manufacturer's present products, although they semm to be featured in many places. Any thoughts, on both fur felts and straws?

(It hasn't seen the inside of a hat box in several years!!)

My Dobbs hats might become unsatisfactory if I wore them everyday in all weather, but as it stands, they are affordable and serve their intended purpose.
