What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?
Envy. I'ld love to have a Stetson with airplane on the liner ... and one with bunny ears :) IMO "Flagship" and "Playboy" are the coolest hat names out there.- Steinbockhase

The color, felt texture and identical felt hatband give me the impression of an Alpine (Alpen) style Borsalino :) (I have a black fuzzy Borsalino that originally had an identical felt hatband; changed it against something with more contrast.)- Steinbockhase

Borsalino Quality
Concerning brim treatment: I guess a simple raw cut edge requires the least effort for the hatter.
