This stunning hat is a custom piece made by world famous Hollywood hat maker, Baron Hats.
They have been in business for decades, and still make hats for film and television. Their current waitlist for a custom hat, is at least 6 months. You could own this one now!
I fell in love with the Bonanza TV series, especially the first few seasons. I chose Little Joe's brown hat with gold conchos, because of how handsome and elegant it is.
I'm selling it because I'm living a minimalist life now, and know there's a collector or enthusiast who would give this hat a good home.
I'm selling this at a huge loss, as I paid well over my listing price.
The material is a solid suede, and it's just amazing in person. The lining is a plush satin and feels good against the scalp. I installed matching leather chin straps (they're removable by the foldable pins, be gentle) in case you're worried about strong winds.
A note on fit: This hat fits an oval head shape best, and it was difficult to measure this hat accurately. Just above my brows, my head measurement is just under 20.75in, and this hat is a tiny bit loose. 21in head with an oval shape, is ideally the best for this hat.
One last thing, I listed it under women's hats, but any gender could wear this, as long as they fit the shape and measurements.
