Stefano Black Fur Felt Fedora Hat

Q: How to Find Your Hat Size

Pull a fabric tape measure or a length of string around your head just slightly above the ear, across the mid-forehead, completely circling your head. Hold the tape firmly but not too tightly—you are measuring exactly where the hat will sit. Record the measurement in inches or centimeters. If your measurement falls between sizes, choose the next largest size. Then buy a fabulous vintage hat from Madge! For more detail, see our Hat Sizing Chart.

This Stefano black fur felt fedora hat is the ultimate in sophistication.

Fedora Details

Stefano black fur felt fedora hat with a classic teardrop crown and structured wide brim. This unisex vintage fedora balances sharp tailoring with understated style, making it an easy choice for both polished and casual looks.

Crafted from 100% fur felt, the hat holds its shape beautifully while remaining soft to the touch. Fur felt is denser, smoother, and more resilient than wool felt. It holds a crisp crown and structured brim far longer than wool, maintaining its shape with wear. It also offers better natural water resistance, making it a durable and dependable choice for everyday styling and cooler weather.

A black grosgrain ribbon band finishes the crown, keeping the design clean and traditional. Inside, a smooth black satin lining and leather sweatband provide comfortable wear and durability.

A timeless silhouette that works just as well with tailored outerwear as it does with denim and boots.

HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR VINTAGE HAT

Vintage Hat Care

Always handle vintage hats by the brim, not the crown. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep them in a hatbox or covered with acid-free tissue to prevent dust. Avoid using modern sprays or steam, as these can damage delicate materials and trims. For reshaping or cleaning, it’s best to consult a professional milliner experienced in vintage restoration.
