To bad the Arcadia was discontinued.

60? 70s? Whatever. It's made in Cleveland and, despite being 2 sizes too small, it seems to fit just fine.

Just got this today. Local shop was having a 50% off sale so I couldn't resist.
It is a SCALA brand.
My first 100% wool hat. Marked as a "small" but a little to big for my head. I will add a spacer to the inside. I like it, but it is my first full brim. I am not sure how it's going to fit with my face structure. I know it doe snot fit with the shirt I am wearing in the photo, I plan to get a dark brown jacket (like a bombers jacket) for the winter.
Wyrd said:Got my first proper fur felt hat today. i went to an antiques place, they had alot of trilbys, a stetson western which was too small, this was the only fur felt however.Its REALLY soft in comparison to my wool felt jaxon. The woman i bought it from reckoned it was 1940's but who knows... here it is wearing me.
