The Christys’ Down Brim Fedora in Slate Wool. Made in England. A true classic Fedora. Each Fedora begins its journey with a rough cone of premium felt, made from the highest quality Merino wool, felted and imported from Portugal and transformed by the hands of Christys’ skilled artisans in its factory in Oxfordshire. Christys’ felt hats are still manufactured using traditional methods, crafting the brim and crown separately, then finally finished with fine ribbons chosen to complement the shade of hat. Christys’ embody the true spirit of Great British hat making for 251 years and counting.
