Circa 20s-30s black French fedora in very good condition. It has a 2 1/2" brim with a raw edge and the open crown is approx 5 5/8" which is wrapped in a matching black grosgrain ribbon. The hat is unlined and it appears there was a manufacturers sticker or stamp on the crown tip at one time. The textured leather sweatband is still relatively soft and pliable with a taped back seam. The size tag glued to the crown behind the sweatband indicates the hat is a size 6 Euro/7 1/4. A Euro 6 is the equivalent of a US 7 3/8 and a UK 7 1/4. The hat was likely made for the European market since I purchased it from a gentleman in France. I wear between a 7 1/8 and 7 1/4 depending on the hat and this fits me pretty loose so I would say a size 7 3/8 is pretty accurate. Aside from the size tag behind the sweatband I could find no other markings on the hat. The felt is in good shape with NO mothing. $250.00 shipped. If interested please contact me via PM.
