50's Whippet (I'm guessing) 2 1/2 brim, 5 5/8 crown
No tags under the sweat, maybe this hat had a serious rehab at some point?
Came in a cool box but I'm not sure it's original to the hat as box has stars in logo and hat has leafs everywhere
Thanks. It's actually a warm grey or a light brown. Hard to describe exactly and even harder to capture in a photo. You know how some of these old felts are.
I agree with tropicalbob that the mirror is best for deciding what looks best. A trip to a hat shop could be helpful if you haven't already, try on several styles. Keep in mind your tastes may change with time as well. Many go bigger with their brims as they get more comfortable wearing fedoras...
Rick, it's great when you take a chance and it works out. Looks like it really worked out!
Java, that horsehair braid looks so good with that hat! Perfect pairing.
I've long since deleted my emails with them but I can tell you they have great communication via email and will try to get you what you want. Sometimes they are limited by what's in stock.
Recently saw a common misconception from a non hat person seller. "The inside of the hat measures 7 1/2 from front to back so this is a size 7 1/2". Not!
Great Friday for hats! Everyone looks so good!
Happy surprise in the mail today

Slightly modified the crease, a little steam and clean and I'm good to go. I've been looking for some lighter colors for warm weather. Fits the bill perfectly
