I think counts as an “other”.

The felt is a pale gray... probably dove I guess. It super thin and light. I have honestly never experienced a felt like this. I’m not even sure how to go about creasing it, it’s puts up zero fight.

Certainly qualifies for this thread. Looks very nice. Are there any interior tags- a reorder tag behind the sweat, possibly? Perhaps we can figure out the manufacturer.

Super hat Tele.
That’s what i call fingerdent felt.
Because when you touch it, it leaves fingerdents in it. Which is a very good thing. Imho
I agree with Fruno, looks like a Resistol tag, which is a very good thing too.

Thanks man. I especially like that the tag doesn’t appear to have ever had a number.... now I’ll never be able to order another.
