POINT-H - Gray

The crown features a classic teardrop shape. The vertical rise of the side crown is also a distinctive feature, creating a rugged yet dignified impression.

The convex bulge at the top, known as "modori," provides a stable and secure fit. While the hat may feel slightly stiff at first, it will gradually conform to the shape of the wearer's head with use.

Today, there are only a handful of factories in Japan that specialize in manufacturing men's hats. This hat is made in one of these rare factories, based on the traditional 1950s American style of stiff, mold-shaped hats. It faithfully inherits the manufacturing methods of that era, resulting in a robust and durable finish.

The material used is a luxurious antelope-finished wool, which is finer and more lustrous than regular wool. Among rabbit fur felts, antelope refers to rabbit fur with a short pile that has been brushed. This wool faithfully reproduces the smooth texture of rabbit fur.

The brim is a 7cm flat brim. The bound edge, finished with piping, gives a luxurious impression.

The hatband uses a special men's ribbon with finely formed edges (commonly known as "ears"). This ribbon can only be woven at a low speed and requires extensive handwork by skilled artisans, making it a truly luxurious item. Its beautiful finish exudes a distinctive presence that cannot be found in mass-produced hats.

A windcatcher, secured with elastic, is attached around the crown. In the past, this was used by buttoning it through the flower hole of a jacket or shirt to prevent the hat from being blown off by the wind or falling off during travel. This windcatcher is not only practical but also serves as a subtle accent that sharpens the overall impression.

The sweatband is made of vegetable-tanned cow leather, a tanning method that uses tannins (astringent plant compounds) found in bark, trunks, leaves, and fruits to soak into the leather. This leather is less prone to shrinkage, robust, and will mold to the shape of the head and deepen in color with use.
