    I have had a couple of the rabbit fur hats like those, but I finally bought one off of ebay four or five years back that is shearling, they had many different colors to choose from, and I chose the dark brown.

    camel sport coats?

    I have two of them, one is a nice blue/gray and the other is a caramel with gray and blue fine lines. I like them both, the blue/gray I really like to wear casual with a pair of blue jeans and a charcoal fedora. I really think they look nice, I want one that is the camel color next.
