Not sure about Summer weight, but for an inexpensive, tough as nails felt hat, check this thread:

Inexpensive fur felt

Mine has taken a while to re-shape to my liking, but it now wears well and I expect it to be a great hunting/camping hat. Well, as long as the sweat lasts longer than the one in Dinerman's hat.

Stratton hats are most definitely not lightweight.
They are extremely thick and very hard and stiff.

No one really makes anything resembling lightweight fur felt hats nowadays except custom hatters and Borsalino.
