Is that made of Chamois felt?If it's anything like my brand new hat, it can't be bought. Well it can. But not that sprig of fir. Not meaningfully. My hat's not new of course. Just the fact that it's now special.![]()
No, it's from Lock's on St James Street. Accessorised with fir from 1000m up in the Vosges, in Alsace.Is that made of Chamois felt?

If you don't mind them not being Stetson, you can get a tin of those round here for a couple of quid. Stylish and waterproof, but probably better on toast than on your head.Stetson sardine... about 130 quid.......
Sure I watched a clip the other week and Andy crow had it on and they mentioned like already stated Stetson
Plenty of very nice alternative hats out there so why note make your own statement?
