hats hat panama montecristi fur felt bands buckles straw

We believe this collection is made from the finest fur felt material available in the world. We have spent three years sampling and acquiring this material. With the exception of the 1000X, which is beaver and mink, all the hats are pure beaver. There are two types of material. One is dress weight, which is thinner, lighter and more supple. The other is western weight, which is thicker and more rigid. I suggest one of each! Hats can be ordered in different colors, wider or narrower brims and with different bands.

1000X Trailboss
This 1000x material is a blend of the most select beaver and mink furs. Shown in a 3 1/2" brim, low crown Trailboss crease, price on request. This style has been very popular in all our fine fur selections from $550. A 14k gold Navajo Storyteller hatband, price on request, emphasizes the luxurious nature of this fur felt.

 

3 Point Dress
One of our signature creases shown in 100X DW Buckskin. 4 1/4" crown, 3 1/4" brim. $1000. Finished with a tooled leather band inset with coral (or turquoise or silver), in brown or black and terminated with a three piece sterling buckle set for $275.
