Northwest Hat Company "Cairo"

Post by Indiana HW Jones Jr. »

Hi everyone,
This is my first post here, but I have looked around and I love this forum.
This is my 2 week old "Cairo" from the Northwest Hat Company. It's a custom, 100% Beaver hat. Mike has great prices and I think this is a great hat. I added a few personal touches to the bash after recieving it to make it a little more screen accurate. Here is my video review, if anyone is interested: https://youtu.be/DLGfUup2zX0" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Let me know what you think!

Mike is a really nice guy, too!

He did edging to one of my fedoras a couple years back, and his craftsmanship is excellent! Easy to message, and quick to respond.

Good folks!

VERY nice hat!

Regard! Michaelson :M:

Mike makes great hats at a good price. Have three total from him. All Indy styles including a moss green one.

I absolutely love my NW Indy hat that mike made for me. I've got a Penman and an AB and it's right up there with them. I wanted to post pictures of my NW hat but I don't even know how to upload or image host in this old forum.

Still unpacking from my move from Europe to the Washington, DC area. The fedora is in the CS style. You can see it on his FB site but will have to scroll down to a couple years ago.......

The camel is a beautiful color. As soon as I saw the first camel Indy hat he made, I ordered one. I think that was before he gave it a name!

I already have a moss Penman. I think it's the most versatile hat I own.
