Twofer time!
Another gorgeous day here and have two to share. One for keeps and one to move.
The Wormser OR clone I’ve had for a year and have finally taken the time to shape. Was a wrinkled mess, but steamed out nicely. Will be my only gray OR styled hat.
I like Wormsers as much as Adams.

The Dobbs Cross Country is in a sage green color that I have too many of so it’s gonna be sold BIN. Should keep it since I have no other Cross Countries and a collectible piece, but as said many times, I’m not really a collector as much as a vintage hat wearer.

Lookin mighty dapper there, Matt.
Doesn’t get cold enough for warm, but cool coats down here, so I’m a bit jealous of the ensemblege y’all get to sport around in.
I’m a lot jealous of the homburg.
Thank you very much for the great compliment, which has even more weight from your fer.

Regarding the coat - by the way, a 30s Joppe, as it's named in German - and the corresponding weather, you'll have to talk to Max: He once said that he is glad to live where he lives because he hates the cold and snow. So different the tastes are... ;)

Hi from Germany.
I just found this antique German hat, but It has been hard for me to find any info about the Hatmaker or any info. The color is amazing, and compared with some Stetsons and Mayser I have (new ones) the felt is super smooth and with a velvet kind of Quality.

I would imagine Steve @mayserwegener could help you with that.

This looks like a very nice hat, Sir: Congratulations! German from the late 50s to early 60s I guess - in a very nice chamois finish; wonderful colour btw!
Hückel Weilheim, Rockel and aöllll the others produced very similar hats in that time, but I don't know the paper label and so the producer - the best is to wait for Steve, as was said above. ;)
Or you check out the German-Austrian Thread...
Anyway: It is a beauty!

Can you please post the hat photos here?


I need to look into this further so that is the best place. Thanks!
