Yet another guess my hat

Post by Restless Dreamer »

And guess my bash, too. I'm uncertain if I should define it a LC or a CS :-k

To be on the safe side, I said hybrid. To me it looks more like the Crystal Skull fedora, but I can see the Last Crusade in there too.

I voted CS crease. The thing is, when it isn't same block as the CS hat, it ends up looking a bit like LC hat. Can you show us more pics of the hat? That would give a better idea of what it is. Don't give it away, obviously, by showing the liner, but maybe a shot of the bow and some natural lighting to get a feel for the true color of the felt and ribbon.

It looks quite LC to me. On a first guess I would say it reminds me very much of a Christy´s Adventurer

Fed IV? I also voted CS, because of the straight sides it has. Then if this hat ever becomes tapered, you could always make it into a LC. ;)

Christy's was the first hat that came to mind too. The very visible stitching in the middle of the ribbon is very much Christy's. It seems very straight sided, so you must have gotten a good one, if it is a Christy's.

I showed a single picture to make the game more difficult. you guys are just too good in recognizing hats, so a shot of the bow would give the brand away in a minute :P I'm waiting for the game to continue a little more, before posting other shots ;)

I have to adjust my first guess. Initially I thought it was a Fed IV, but the ribbon stitching has me thinking it is indeed a Christy's. Either way it's a great looking hat!

It's no fun playing with you guys :( Yeah, it's a Christy's anyway :P

Game's over, but the poll goes on, I'd like to hear more opinions. I still believe it's a sort of hybrid, more than a CS. Yes, the crown shape and brim width are CS, but it's not beaver, the ribbon looks more like to LC hat and the side dents too (CS ones are very similar to Raiders, very defined). But it's always good to exchange opinions

Upon a quick examination it looks like the CS bash. Good looking lid!
