Resistol Fifteen Gay Prince style. 5 1/2” open crown and 2 1/2” brim. The felt is a wonderful suede finish cedar brown. The seller didn’t know the size, but it’s a 7 3/8 and not the 7 5/8 I was hoping for. The hat is very lightweight and easily dry creased.

This is the first Resistol I’ve seen in the Gay Prince style. Has anyone else see on of these? It’s off to eBay, so feel free to send me a PM if you’re interested.
