that's it Yea - that's it. He got the new one that I think is made by the Italian Company and shown on the http://www.hothatsonline.com/ link to their site. I think the one that shows the stitching at the hand band area is the one that has no sweat band inside. He says it is favorite... -
can't find it
Friend just bought a Pannizza kanguroo (kangaroo?) rain hat and I can't find it on the internet. It is supposedly a fedora style made with rabbit felt and no leather sweat band. A company in Sebastopol supposedly is the importer. I found a company called Pantropical that used to be in... -
