Great additions, Daniele! Many thanks! Great to see together all these wool and wool/fur mixtures in different finishes. Especially these last two are truly fantastic.- PanosChris

That one is also fantastic, Matt! As a side note, the lettering on the sweatband reminded me my "Echter Haarvelour" And maybe the STECO, "Hora velour"- PanosChris

Old wool hats are great. Unfortunately I haven't managed to get new pics from the ones you sent me (e.g., KAMI) to post them here.- PanosChris

Another French, "Thibet" in a special wool recipe. This is probably the most elegant wool felt that has passed from my hands. More silky than rough. Pics from Daniele And with that I've just remembered a Thibet wool bowler if someone wants to post it here ;)- PanosChris

Not as fancy or good as the Negrettis shown above, but another relatively light weight wool bowler. Unknown brand, probably English, l am thinking 30s. Also soft and flexible, nearly wanted to be bashed- PanosChris

Here is another black pre-WWII woolie that fits here, probably from a Guben source with similar small stamps- PanosChris

Fantastic woolies, Stefan! Thank you for replying to the call :) These old wool hats are on a different league and have nothing to do with modern wool hats obviously, neither they are more prone to shrinkage :)- PanosChris

Thank you Daniele, much appreciated! I couldn't agree more with you. The European wool centres- e.g., Monza in Italy, Guben in Germany and Esperaza in France- have produced some magnificent wool hats in the past and although there are plenty of examples and tons of info in the respective...- PanosChris

Very, very nice Steve. I love the details. That's the first WPW I see. The logo makes sense for it to contain some beaver fur, I guess. The loden melone is also fantastic and unique.- PanosChris
