Part of our stylish new winter collection the Forester incorporates the following features: 

WIRED BRIM: The wide (8.5cm) brim on this distinctive cowboy inspired model is supported by a stiff wire. This classic feature means you can shape the brim to match your individual preference or style. The genuine leather belt is the perfect finishing touch to complete this stylish hat.

ALL SEASON FELT: We have selected a premium mid-weight felt for the Western styled Forester. Combined with the well positioned ventilation this is truly an all season model.

HANDMADE in Ecuador from 100% premium wool, this mid-weight felt is made in ethical conditions. The quality natural materials result in a breathable and elegant finish. Brim – 8.5cm wide. Crown - 12cm tall.

WATER AND STAIN REPELLENT: Keeps you dry, whatever the day may throw at you! Like all felt hats should not be worn in very heavy rain as saturation may cause it to lose some of its distinctive shape.

COMFORT-FIT and EASY CARE:  Sweat wicking lightly padded sweatband this versatile hat can be surface cleaned with a clothes brush or clean damp cloth.

The crown has a distinctive shape with traditional indent on the dome and two deep dimples at the front of the crown creating a narrow point.  The generous brim is wired so you can mold it to whatever shape you like.  The inside is finished with a soft inner band for additional comfort.  This hat is handmade from premium wool felt and is water repellent (ie. it will withstand normal rain, but we would advise against wearing it in very heavy rain where the felt could become saturated with water).

If you are not sure what your hat size is, please follow these simple instructions to find your size.

Measure your head at the level you would want the hat to sit at when you are wearing it.  This can vary a little according to your personal preference, but normally it would be across the middle of the forehead, pass a thumb’s width above your ears and around the widest part of the back of your head. 

Use a tape measure or a piece of string to find your size in centimetres.

Once you have the measurement in centimetres, this should be the hat size for you.  You may wish to move up or down one size if you prefer a particularly loose or tight fit.
