Handsome vintage **Dobbs Fifth Avenue** hat from the \"Dobbs Twenty\" line, in classic black wool felt with a rounded crown and snap brim. This one has real presence — it\'s dressed with a woven black-and-grey braided cord band tied in a decorative knot, a colorful pheasant feather cockade on a silver-tone mount, and a small enamel crest pin (crown over a shield with crossed swords and a rampant lion) on the front of the crown.
Inside, the ivory satin lining carries the gold Dobbs crest stamp, and the leather sweatband is gold-stamped \"Dobbs Twenty\" with the horse-and-carriage logo, plus a previous owner\'s name (\"G F Keiser\") stamped in gold — a nice touch of provenance on a well-made piece. The hat is marked \"Made in Canada under license\" and sized **7⅜** on both the fabric size tag and the sweatband charm.
A striking, ready-to-wear statement hat for anyone who collects mid-century menswear, Alpine/Tyrolean-style hats, or Dobbs pieces specifically.
