Hey, sorry Mod for starting a whole thread on this but no one went into the Short Q and A thread tonite
What is that word on the floppy hat Jason is wearing now? is this the same hat Eric wears? I want one and figure that'll help me figure out what kind of hat it is
thanks

I'm not sure how to figure it out because they have to cover all name brand labels. If the label is still showing, it would be a miracle, but I'll try to remember to look over the next few days.

thanks spygirl, it's not a label it is a word written in brown across the crown? of the hat like Nike would be written across a baseball hat

When they zoomed in on Jason I could see it clearly but for me it was like reading the last line on an eyechart, I couldn't
thanks

'Tilley' makes a hat that looks similar. Not surprisingly, they have a website with all the info.

something like that.

I think the Tilleys are the big name in the style though.

maybe it's the "sorting hat" from Harry Potter books... it tells the houseguest/wearer whom to vote off!

Yes, the floppy hat makes a return! He looks like Paddington Bear in that thing.

Zachsmom - Those bears are Furskins...

Just give him a pair of overalls and some hiking boots and it will be a true likeness.

If you go to www.paskowitz.com, it's for a surf camp. They sell stuff, but the K is backwards and the T is upside down. So, I don't know if this hat comes from there or not.

omg, my son had that exact bear (furskin) as a kid, still have his big ol' shoes in the old toybox, LOL

I went to that website for the surf camp, not sure, their hats are different with the inverted letters, I sent them an email with the pic (great clear shot!)
You know how you just can't let go of something??
I really want that hat even more now, lolol
Thanks to all for the help! :)

I bet its an old cap associated with that surf camp, I mean HOW many commercial things have the name Paskowitz??

Here is a hat from their current catalog....

If you do a search for "Bucket Hats" you will find a lot of them that look like that one.

My son has one almost just like that one! (different color and his high school band logo on the front)

Paddington Bear's Hat and coat are actually raingear, and his hat was known as a 'sou'wester' and they were most likely plastic, or vinyl, or rubberised.
Even nowadays you can still get that yellow raingear here in Canada, but after a few years, the rubber coating begins to break down and fall off in little bits, so you're a sort of walking cloud of yellow dandruff, in the rain.
But the stuff is great for wet summer gardening!
