It wouldn't be a hat, but a massacre! No wonder they use a scythe to harvest them: the grim reaper is coming for your straw!

This is a “box” I’ve checked several times, but I’m a sucker for those 6-cord ribbons.
And the seller said “new/un-worn” condition.

Seller didn’t know the size but guessed at 7 1/2 (for what little that’s worth). I was just intrigued by what looks like a Langenberg hat that I can’t recall seeing before. From the diminutive dimensions I’m guessing 1960s or ‘70s.

Glad to see you win that one Ross! I was in on it early, but (due to my buying too many $30 hats) I could not hang for long. Hope it fits!

Thanks, Bob. I’ll be sharing better photos when they arrive. Seller was zero help but did respond to a PM, no idea on if the sign is actual vintage either but I’m assuming it is.

I'm a sucker for this profile so couldn't resist this strange duck.

That is an unusual one for sure... I don’t think I have seen that Adam logo before. Nice find

I saw that hat. I’m curious about the made in Ecuador aspect. Is this the same Adam that we’re used to seeing?

Was wondering same, Brent. Guess I figured this is similar to panamas and other weaved hats that are made outside the US and sometimes sold under recognizable labels. Also looking forward to seeing what quality felt was used.
Appears at least to be a "serious" hat .. nice looking sweat and bow.

I found a little mystery Lee of my own:
It’s definitely not pristine and overwelts are not my favorite brim edge. Still, I’m hopeful that it comes out alright and that the seller’s measurements were accurate.

I am going to need three trips to bring all the ones that are waiting for me in Texas.
