I present 2 from Pilgrim Fine Men's hats, the manufacturer for Sears Roebuck back in the day.

Huge fan of Sears hats. It probably has something to do with nostalgia and some sadness (with their missed opportunity to be an Amazon competitor).

Pilgrim was the “house” brand for their clothing line for many years.


The hats were made by others (with Byer-Rolnick and Lee being ones of note).

This is from a Sears Pilgrim western I have.

@BobHufford thank you for the information and the correction. They are both nice hats, with the black one needing some TLC on arrival. Do you know if there is a way to determine exactly which company made the hats? The only labeling I found is shown in the photo. That came from the grey one.

Picked this one up several weeks ago and it's been on the stretcher ever since. Bought it as a homburg, but turned out to be a lords hat.
Brummel's lords hat in black. Qualité de Luxe Castor (so beaver) in a size 55 (which I did know before I bought it). Brim at 6cm and the crown 10,5cm at the center dent.
