Yesterday was New Hat Day (Merry Christmas to me)! A roll of the dice for this mystery brand paid off. Fifth Avenue Hats of NYC. Turns out it's made by GW Alexander, and it's the nicest Alexander I've handled (sample size = 3). Thin, easily formed felt that responds very well. The sweat is thin and supple. I got some ghost creases out with relative ease and the condition is pristine. No stains, critter nibbles or anything.
5.5" crown, 2 5/8" bound brim. Just a great hat.
Interestingly enough, it was originally purchased in Coshocton, Ohio, and I got it from a guy in WA who sent it back to me in Dayton.
Hakuna Matata and all that.
