    Mystery Cap

    few possibilities 1) I saw a similar hat sold on millerhats.com a few years back- i do not see it on their site right now. it was a light brown leather top with a dark brown or black bill..not identical but similar. 2) I can't tell how distressed the hat is, but it could be a take on...

    Roelofs Hats?

    yes true ...but i cant find any record of roelofs in philly. i haven't really looked into this, but if this was a marriage thing, maybe a merger of sorts just happened over the long term eventually giving way to the more dominant stetson name w/o any legal issues. was roelofs a public...

    Roelofs Hats?

    thought speaking of time capsules... philly was a much more busy city in past. i was just thinking that maybe after the merger of stetson and roelofs they had left over inventory... A) the inventory was used at a location elsewhere to make the hat. meaning that a local hatter put it...

    Light Grey Hats with Grey Beards?

    options dont forget the akubras: federation, stylemaster, squatter. christys :adventurer and maybe the stetson nostalgia (although the crown isnt so high on this one) as for custom. you have art fawcett, penman, and mary-ann of couture creations (she is in pennsylvania outside philly) i...

    What do you think of the Indiana Jones hats?

    here http://aeris.adventure-realm.com/ christys adventurer gets a good review for meeting the criteria of an indy hat...but they are also not known to be the toughest of hats....adventure built and penman are the more expensive ones and known to be tough. the akubra fed is also decent-...
