Hat from the Goodwill.

[Baron Kurtz]

Very lightweight. Feels like a relatively high quality felt but quite stiff. Unfortunately some idiot has cut out the sweatband and removed all the labels from the felt under the sweat. So i have no idea of the maker. It has a raw edge and 1.25" grosgrain ribbon. The brim is just over 2". It seems to have been approx a size 7, and luckily for me, i have a spare size 7 sweatband sitting around that i can attach to this hat. Forces me to learn how, i guess.

The sweatband was dark brown. The white mark on the inside of the felt is where the reorder labels have been removed.

Baron, looks like a great find, and a great opportunity to hone some hat crafting skills!

How does one re-attach a sweatband? One of my hats has one that's falling off.

remove the original and sew in the new one.
