Dobbs "Pseudo Milan". I don't care if it's pseudo, I find it beautiful and perfect for a round of golf when it might rain.

Is it just me... or does Resistol manage to get a bit of ruggedness out of this style that Dobbs does not.Resistol Fifteen Gay Prince style. 5 1/2” open crown and 2 1/2” brim. The felt is a wonderful suede finish cedar brown. The seller didn’t know the size, but it’s a 7 3/8 and not the 7 5/8 I was hoping for. The hat is very lightweight and easily dry creased.
This is the first Resistol I’ve seen in the Gay Prince style. Has anyone else see on of these? It’s off to eBay, so feel free to send me a PM if you’re interested.

Pilleus for PellieA green Hungarian hat called Pilleus. Couldn't resist it
Photo's from the seller....
Pilleus for Pellie
nice hat Marcel
Nice catch, Matt. It has a really nice deep blue colour to it.As with Stefan: Sometimes you just have to be lucky...
I gave a hat a chance, which was actually specified with 56 cm
and therefore intended for Panos. The condition and the bad pictures
made me/us suspect that it was an old (30s/40s) dark blue Woolie.
The price was unbeatable with 7€ (including shipping!) anyway...
When the package arrived yesterday, I was shocked at first,
because the box containing the hat was slightly larger than my hand!
I feared the worst...
Apart from the compressed state, it quickly turned out that the hat
unfortunately would not fit Panos - because it is a 58!
Lucky for me (sorry again, Panos).
A look at the logo on the sweat told me that it was a postwar hat
(certainly 50s): VEB Vereinigte Hutwerke Guben!
The actual dark blue felt (Yeah!) also turned out to be a wool-hair mix.
However, the condition was so badly deteriorated that I couldn't really tell
what the original shape was. I opted for an oldschool version with a deep
crease and gave the hat a lot of cleaning, brushing and steaming.
Here is the result:
The logo sadly is difficult to recognize
Later I found a hat on Steve's wonderful site that belongs to Chris
(here from the lounge) and is the same model in gray
- same shape/design of ribbon & sweat, same logo and label.
However, the lining has unfortunately been lost on mine.
