two questions from a noob
I prefer open crown hats so I can crease them myself. Others want a factory crease which look too perfect for me. The hats I have that came with factory creases have all been tweaked once I got them. The Akubra Fedora aka Sydney is a good, basic fedora that would suit your target. Others here... -

Fedora, raw edge brim that is turned up ala Art Carney's Norton character on Jackie Gleason Honeymooners show. For me, a trilby would be a shorter brim with the front down, not up... -

two questions from a noob
I looked but have deleted all photos of hat & noggin shots. If you are set on a traveling hat, I'd look at Borsalino or Akubra versions. The Christy's is very low crown & short brimmed. You can get a good beater for a lot less have have a lot more hat. -

Optimo Fur Felt Fedora 7 5/8 Black for sale
Still don't see an answer to how you had these hats "verified". Heirloom from Optimo is NOT always 100% beaver according to the hatter himself. He has mink added in, so it can be 100% belly beaver fur or a BLEND of beaver & mink. Your statements of your authority lose validity with each post...- gtdean48
