Hats and Beanies

@Mister_Brue mine was made in Belgium and I think most of the wool flat caps are. I saw the panamas are made in Ecuador as they should be. I didnt look at the cheaper straw hats, but maybe those are made in China? But honestly, since owning several pieces of MOTIV clothing (Beijing), my opinion of Chinese quality has changed dramatically. My MOTIV pieces are beautiful and rival anything made in Japan that I have owned, and I have owned an awful lot!
I did love the history of Lock and was just smitten by the hat patterns of famous people they had on display. The salesman told me that they still will custom fit you for a Bowler. I’m not gonna lie, I was half tempted.
Also please point me to more traditional hat makers. My favorite man in Tennessee has sadly moved on

@goosehd he settled down and had a family. I think he needed steadier work. It’s a shame, he is a talented and really interesting guy!

@Anesthetist Steamboat Hatters in Colorado is amazing. My wife had a custom hat made there for our wedding and it outstanding.

@Anesthetist Beautiful cap, but we need to see a fit picture! Wear it in good health.

Almost as good a day as when a green bag is on the porch... A big square box.... Another collection I guess.

@CosmoSix5 Love it! I hope I can grab one soon.

Just picked up a MF Denim Ship Cap. I quite like it.

@derek111 if you are looking for an authentic Jeep Cap then I would try a site called World War 2 Impressions. They make amazing stuff and have been used in movies for uniforms etc. I have 2 of the jeep caps and they are fantastic. Here is a link.

A fun little Wabash flat cap arrived today. Never been able to pull this vibe off. Maybe the moustache will help.
Get outside, feel small

Hat and stache combo looks good on you
Not sure if the reference will translate outside the US but Roy Underhill would agree
