Wonderful Homburg. Interesting color of the sweat band. I like it.Nice Hückel homburg. One size smaller.
Nice find! It's pre WWII. Did it have liner? If you get a chance please post it here.Nice Hückel homburg. One size smaller.
Thanks, I wonder if a visit of the hairdresser will help me to wear itWonderful Homburg. Interesting color of the sweat band. I like it.
Currently bidding on this one. It looks like nice, unworn homburg

Looks like an old velour dress hat. Great looking hat, but it does not have the curled and bound brim of a homburg. Either way a super find. I love the look of it and the ribbon and bow treatment especially.Well, maybe not unworn, but condition is damn well for starting price12 USD. If it's not homburg, what it is then?

That's hard to say actually. The picture does not show the brim well enough to say if it's a homburg or not.Thanks for enlightenment. So I guess this is the same.
Looks great! I have to look into Gustav Reiner. I can't make out anything else on the crown patch. Can you? It's a Velour and has an heavy Over Welt brim so mostly worn brim up similar to a Homburg. Hope you win it.Currently bidding on this one. It looks like nice, unworn homburg

Thanks! It's Made For so maybe the Hat Company that made it is on a paper label behind the sweatband. I will have to see if I can find anything on Gustav Reiner. This hat is prior to WWII so most of the Czechoslovakian Hat companies (JHS, AP, BB, OFH, ect) were still Austrian / German owned. The only Czech owned Hat Company that made Velours was Janyška & Cie.I guess I put it in the wrong section, isn't it rather German? Found the photo of label in the auction:

It's rare to come across an old B.B. Soft Felt. It's made of Wool so more of common man's hat.What about this one? Perhaps it will need brim reshaping. Good thing it's my size.
