Yes, I have light grey, light brown and an almost "Natural" colour in the Tonak heather. My supplier no longer stocks them so I was thinking of running a sale on them. If interested I can snap pictures tomorrow to give you an idea of colour.

yes, same felt. He was not offering them for a while but I see they are back on the menu. Last time I checked his Suede finish was not offered either. Damn, his pricing on the rabbit felts has jumped up more than double what it was 2 - 3 years ago.
It fell out of style after the war and led to the cultural rebellion. Hats and even suits went out of the way to what evolved between then to now. Clothes, rock n roll music and various norms changed. If it didn’t change we would all be wearing stuffy suits and hats daily. I don’t think hats back then were fashionable because everyone was wearing one. We are hat lovers so we wish the old day of wearing hats. It only feels fashionable because there are very few us wearing them. I get compliment in how I dress so now that I started to add hats to my wardrobe it enhances my attire even more so because I’m the only one wearing a sweet hat rather than a baseball cap.
I fitted a client for a new hat yesterday. He is still working in the corporate world and we both are of similar vintage. We waxed nostalgically about the old days (back in the 1980's) when corporate attire required a suit et al. He worked for a multinational consulting firm and he had a corporate mandated uniform. It was part of his contract of employ....Brooks Bros suit, bland tie, white shirt, he had his choice of 3 shoe styles (black in colour) and even the colour of socks and belt. Different times. Now he works from home and holds Zoom meetings in his sweat pants.
I neglected to tell a cool part of the story. The two guys found out about me through my very first student almost 2 years ago now. They asked my student where he got his hat and he replied he had made it in a class taught by a guy that lives in Port Coquitlam. Turns out the two guys live just down the street from me. Their wives contacted me and bought them the workshop as a Christmas present. They do both realize how lucky they are to have wives such as this. The lady in the picture is my wife.....and yes I realize my good fortune as well.
I am even tempted to make one for me.
I still wear a tie for most of my online meetings, but most of my dress shoes are gathering dust!
Very cool!
I really love this style too, I personally like the 3/4 brim curl where the front has a slight down turn.
Me too. I pull them out from time to time and polish them just for old times sake.
