"Uncontested - The Champ"
Champ Featherweight Crown - 4 1/4” as creased Brim - 2 3/16” 1960’s, I believe. This hat arrived in mint condition. I don’t think it was factory creased, but it just kind of creased itself as shown. I don’t know if the feather is original or not, but I assume that it is. It just makes sense. -
