Vintage 1960s Knox New York "Hunter MT" Camel Fur Felt Fedora — Rare Size 7 7/8
An absolute holy grail find for vintage menswear collectors. This late-1960s Knox New York fedora arrives in near-deadstock, pristine condition. Originally retailed through the historic mid-century Tennessee haberdashery Pigg & Parsons, this hat shows virtually zero signs of wear or age.
Crafted from a beautifully structured, incredibly stiff fur felt in a rich, perennially stylish camel colorway. It features a teardrop creased crown accented by a matching braided cord hatband and a subtle, dark accent feather plum. Inside, the brilliant white satin liner is immaculate, and the genuine leather sweatband remains perfectly supple and entirely free of wear or oil marks.
