Great hat! Looks like we have Wormser twins. :D



What color would you call yours? It looks blueish.

I think its a white with bluish overtones, much as you described yours.

It is a neat hat. I haven't seen wormsers before. Great felt and the hat is very well made.

I won this circa 1954 Habig 'Camber' on Ebay. It has vents (Ventilo) at the front and a pull out loop thread at the rear for hanging.

This is a seriously cool piece of hattage. Wide sweatband with functional lacing. And a pull out loop for hanging, you say? That's a new one on me - or more accurately this hat is probably a very old one.

Beautiful hat sir. The finish looks very tactile and soft. A bit of hat history, no doubt.

mayserwegener, gorgeous hat!

Nice ebay find...so far, I've been unlucky on ebay...maybe it's time to step up my searches! Mayserwgener, did you have to do much work cleaning it up, or was it in this condition when you received it?

Thanks for all the replies guys...I think that I have now acquired an addiction to fedoras. I've always been into baseball caps ,but fedoras are much more classy and sophisticated. Guess I gonna have to make room in the closet.

A couple new ones and now I'm on hat hiatus

Got a new one in from Optimo.

Wanted to try out a Homburg- so got a ready made from Worth & Worth. I guess it's technically a Guerra.

Thank you all for the responses. I like it quite a lot; it is just a bit larger in all dimensions than I am used to, kind of like a western without the shape. I'm glad it looks ok.
