After grown-upping this morning, went by the imitation palatial estate for casualizificationifying.

Grabbed a '50s Dobbs. No price or other designation on the sweat or crown-tip, simply Dobbs.

Sometimes just Dobbs is enough! Great lines on that one, Matt.

"NEUHEIT / Novelty" "SPITZENKLASSE / Top Class", measures 58cm, late 1930s. This German Velour arrived recently. I am trying to figure out what company made it but that could prove futile. I really like the color and the Velour has a great finish and hand. Also the hat has a very unique liner design with reed piping.

Spitzenklasse is the right name, Steve. The Leica velour I have has a reed in the liner as well. The sweatband looks similar too; same factory maybe?

Stefan, Thank you! I will have to take a look again at your "Leica" Velour. There is some writing around "NEUHEIT" on the liner logo but I can't make it out. I am posting some other photos in the German - Austrian thread so maybe you can take a look.
