Hi again folks

Walking on a beach in East Yorkshire, England in the November cold a couple of years ago. I sold this hat when I got the HJ, but do you recognise what make of hat it was?

cheers

By the look of the ribbon I would put my money on a Dorfman Pacific.

Stones,

It's difficult to say from that photo, as it is more of a full on shot and not a close-up; but it appears, based on what I can see of the lighter color of the ribbon, it appears to coincide with your (other) thread, that it could possibly be the HJ...? It also appears as though the AB had a sharp pinch in the front, at one time, and apparently you opted for a more relaxed pinch.

The ribbon seems a bit wide and lighter in color, I'm opting for Stetson.

Stones, do you know the make of the hat, and you're just testing us to see if we know? Otherwise, I really don't think there's any way that even an expert on here could tell what make or model that hat is from one photo.

You got it djd, it's a Christy's Adventurer. I liked the block shape of the Christy's but sold it when I got the HJ.
