Vatex Headwear?

Post by Chewbacca Jones »

I just ran accross an old ad from the LC era for the official "Indy III Fedora". It lists the manufacturer as Vatex Headwear. I don't recall seeing that name anywere around here, among all the Dorfmans and Stetsons. Anybody got the story on them?

internet search looks like Vatex became Hatco and is now Resistol

I have no idea about Indy hats but this looks like the lineage of the name :wink:
