They look pretty SA and at a pretty good price. I don't know about the quality though. At that price it might be better to go with a Camptown, Keppler, or an Akubra Deluxe. The quality of these are wide-known while the Chirty's one is not known. They do look nice though. Even their wool feds look pretty good.

Yeah, I too would like to know about the quality of the felt. Does anyone here have any first-hand experience with this hat?

I don't know for sure, But I think this is the same felt as the HJ felt. Iam willing to take a plunge on this as soon as I have some money again.

If it is the same felt as the HJ then it is definately worth the $170. Can anyone else confirm this?
