Larry the man behind Hellers Cafe is one of THE OG vintage collectors with a bunch of others . together with warehouse team he creates some of the best repros out of his amazing collection, the stuff is pretty much identical to the originals. I own some repro pieces of them, not the hat though, and am always excited wearing this stuff. @jdl1279

Thanks, will have a look

[jdl1279]

Thanks for the input davito! Quality does seem worth it. The sizing has me a bit put off though, at least what I can find. Only measurement I can find puts a medium (smallest I can find) at .75 inches too big, which is huge in hat territory. I'd really like one of these though, so hoping to find better info that will nudge things back in the right direction

[davito]

M is the smallest they do it seems, same with RMC in their leather casquettes for example and other manufacturers like john lofgren starting at 57cm. M usually fits my smaller head good my measurements are approx 56.5cm with a tiny bit of extra. Japanese seem having a bit bigger heads than we in the wild west @jdl1279

But i suggest you send them an Email i am sure they explain everything to you

[jdl1279]

Actually quite helpful davito. My head is 57, or 22.25". The measurement I found put the M at almost 22.875" a full 3 proper hat sizes too big. I knew Japanese sizing would be different, so didn't think much on it. However your indicators seem to put it more in line with what I'd expect. I have dropped them a line, so hope they can clear up the actual

[davito]

Good luck Sir

[jdl1279]

Truly appreciated, brings hope this could still work

[davito]

Pretty think it will, my RMC casquette is tagged 7 1/2 and fits 57cm, my JMC fedora is tagged 7 1/8 fits ace as well they are really funny with sizes sometimes. But with the m in the hellers i think you'll be close to what u need

[jdl1279]

Yeah, I'm a 7 1/8 in most American sized hats. We seem about the same in head wear at least. The style has some room for minor adjustments with the front tie too. Will be sure to update on how it sorts

Managed to grab this from Ebbets last week or so, love it.

^That's a sweet looking hat, great pickup!

[davito]

Perfect cap with the adjustable strap and it suits you well @David_pll
Superb pickup
Have this one too without the strap, really nice ballcaps, well manufactured

[David_pll]

Thank you!

Wanted one for a while so when the adjustable one was available for a limited time I hat to get it!

[davito]

Is that indigo dyed wool?

@Chiba:

Is that indigo dyed wool?

Just blue wool that John named "Surf Blue". It had been limited to 10 hats, but that may have changed for this season.

@davito  Great pics. Like the Stetson photo the most. BTW Stetson made in the good old USA.
