Thank you for the information. I’m amazed at the vast resourceful amount of knowledge you have with these German-Austrian hats. It is a very well made quality velour fedora that I look forward to wearing when it cools down a bit more here in AZ -

Fedora Repairs circa 2020
Well ‘‘twas just a thought for whatever it may or may not be worth. I tend to be a fan of most any good, humble, hard working underdog. I’m willing to give them a chance and the benefit of the doubt. Evidently messages can be missed or overlooked, I sent you one in June about your blue Portis... -
