D69 Hats are handmade by artist Ken Goldstein - one hat at a time. The hats are made from either vintage fur, pulled from historic pelts, or repurposed from an existing hat. D69 Hats do not come with hatliners, hat bands, or any accoutrements common in retail Western style hats. D69 Hats are not fancy hats. These a raw with an unfinished quality because once you start wearing yours, it'll finish itself. The D69 logo is burned into the hat, as are details like size and approximated quality of fur. Source material is researched and original production dates estimated.
