Floppy Felt Hat


This is a felt hat with an oversized brim.


Not really much more I can say about it.


I folded the front of the brim up to give the brim some support via the crease.

Uses 



Useful to protect your shoulders from the sun.



 You could fold the brim upfront and back so it meets in the middle forming a nice bicorne.




or fold in 3 making a an oversize tricorne.

Engineers Leisure Cap


This leather oil-stained pillbox hat was found in a pile of bric-a-brac quite a few years ago


It makes a perfect hat for a dieselpunk or steampunk engineer.


Made of thin leather with a calico lining.


I think I need a few better photos wearing a nice distressed costume to go with the hat, however, I've been thinking that for 4 years, so its time to post these pictures rather than wait.
