Janyška "Parla", 58cm, NOS, Crown Open 5 1/2 inches, Brim 2 inches, probably late 1930s to late 1940s. The felt is high quality and easily dry creases. Also very nice form for the this style hat. This hat is from my May 2016 Czech find and the final one (20 total) in the series!

Open Crown

Just a thrift store Filson. I'm sure it will fill a niche.

Excuse the fuzzy pic. It's accurate to how I feel.

Hey, it's a new hat right?

Hey!
Got this yesterday. Royal Panizza of modern manufacture It was in my watch list for a few months, decided to take a chance for 20 dollars and change. Listed as a wool felt, but if I had a dollar for every fur felt I have seen called wool on the interwebs I could buy a hat from timothie at full price.Took 5 days (and 2 dollars more than the hat cost) to get here to CA from The Netherlands. Pretty darn fast. Needed a little steam and reshaping, but it is in great condition.
It has the same dimensions as an OR.It is very nice felt, 108g total weight., about the same as my OR body without sweatband or liner. A nice manly shade of green, trimmed similar to an OR but with a simple, plain bow.
Maybe I'll call it The Roman Road....

Seeing and feeling the quality of a modern Panizza, I can't wait to find a vintage one...Ghiffa's ghift to hat lovers for sure!

I would LOVE to find a hat like that! As we always are treating our hats with such gentle care, a hat like that would be great as a wear all the time hat without fear of it getting ruined from bad weather, heat, etc. I will have to check on the "bay" and see if I can find one or two!

I like that color of green. Nice and bright color, not a faded color at all!

Yes indeed...we have been waiting for a while but wow very much worth it! Custom made by our own Esther. Has a purple liner to match the ribbon and is just exactly what we wanted! Daniel already had a name for this one, "Daniel's Esther"! You have to admit, Esther is such a sweet soul, and the end result of working with her on making this hat, proves she knows her stuff! Thank you Esther.

They are made by Falcus now.

Panizza Ghiffa made fantastic felt + hats until the factory closed in 1981.

So this one is pre 1981? Seems newer than that. Maybe because it's in great shape...

I love that -- Esther is such a talent. Purple is my favorite color, but not something I could normally wear -- I'm even watching this one (although I don't know why).

I think I could pull off a ribbon on a hat like that though. Daniel is a lucky man.

We could call him "Huggy Bob."

 

[BobHufford]

We could call him "Huggy Bob."

You can do that anyway.

 

[Hurricane Jack]

We could call him "Huggy Bob."

Or we could call him "His Purpleness". I hear that title is available again.

Very nice! I like the sharp flange, mid ribbon with dipped bow and the bound brim edge - elegant shapes. When I first saw it this morning on my phone, the ribbon appeared black. It would suit me better that way, but Daniel has a lot of style and I'm sure he will coordinate these colors beautifully. Wish him the best from me.

Thank you so much Alan. I am super happy for your comments and of course we both love you here. Alan is always the true Gentlemen. Bless us all.

I'm quite the happy camper. High praise!
Thank you Alan!
I really appreciate you saying that!
