The fur felt hat collection at Hartford York has reached some sort of apex. Take the Rubiku fur felt hats for example, those uniquely embroidered fedoras that are the result of a collaborative effort between Borsalino and artist Anila Rubiku of Albania.

It'll just take one look at the Borsalino trophy hat, a limited edition issue called The Cervelt, and I think you'll agree that we've got some pretty fine hats for your heady pleasure. This magnificent fur felt fedora is crafted from a blend of fur that includes the soft underside fur from the New Zealand red deer. The nap is just incredibly soft and the grosgrain trim features the traditional Borsalino bow and logo.
One of my new favorites this year has got to be a Biltmore fur felt stingy brim hat called The Peluche Pork Pie. This remarkably beautiful pork pie hat has a perfectly stingy 1 1/2 inch bound edge brim and features a peluche finish, which means the nap is left long and uncombed. Makins has got a pork pie hat in fur felt that's also sublime. Called The Salome Greenwich, it's a brushed fur felt hat with rope trim and bound brim. Very clean lines and simple in design, it's a classic.
If you like the look and texture of brushed fur felt, you've got a choice of two fedoras courtesy of Makins. Both stingy brim hats with 1 1/2 inch brims, the center dent fedoras are trimmed with rope and come in color Coffee with The Greenwich Cafe and Gray with The Greenwich Charcoal.
Trust Carlos Santana to come up with a miracle in fur felt, and The Milagro really does have a miraculously rich velour finish. The grosgrain ribbon band is embroidered with a striking beat design and the brim on this men's fur felt hat comes in pretty stingy at two inches. The fedora silhouette, as seen in The Soul Sacrifice, a stingy brim fur felt hat from Santana by Carlos Santana, is one of the best known perhaps, but fur felt is also used to make outstanding hats in every style including cowboy hats, like the renowned dress western hat made famous by LBJ, The Open Road from Stetson, as well as those pork pie hats already mentioned and one pork pie from another NY designer, Eugenia Kim, with The Velour Tony, a fur felt diamond crown hat with smooth velour finish and tarnished metal chain mesh trim.
To recap (and there will be a test), we've got traditional fur felt hats like Christys' London Trilby and The Como from Borsalino; and we've got fur felt hats posing as modern travel-worthy fedoras for men including The Foldaway (one of my perennial favorites) and even a classic fur felt bowler, a la Charlie Chaplin's beloved derby.
Gee, I think I forgot one. Hang on to your fur felt hat while you browse, and let me take this from the top.
