Pugaree.....?

[bolthead]

Does anyone know, or has anyone ever seen a "Leather" Pugaree?

Or even a faux/synthetic type of leather in a Pug?

Thanks.

I guess the answer would be no then? :eusa_doh:

Apparently so, Bolt! I'm trying to remember if I've ever seen one, but if I have it was before I was paying attention to such things.

Cheers,
Tom

I can't recall seeing one either. I bet a chamois would make a great pug though...

Have you tried your local pugaree-wallah?

Like definition above, I always thought they were cloth. I've seen leather bands with buckles that are easily swapped out, same for horse hair but those are more for my western brims....

 

[bolthead]

Just curious.....

I thought it might look good on a hat I have. [huh]

Bolt...make one. Somebody already suggested it. From the outerwear forum, which is a whole other world from the hats forum, they talk a lot about A-1 jackets made from capeskin, a really thin and pliable leather used mainly for gloves. I'd bet it would work for the folding necessary to produce a jolly great pug for your purposes. I'm surprised I can't find anything on the net about a similar concept. You might want to copyright the design! Here's a helpful link:
