Re: Fur Felt vs Wool Felt?

Fur felt is far superior. This is what all original hats were made of and the
highest quality western hats are still made from it. You will notice that they
are graded 3x-4x-5x. The higher number of x's indicates a thicker hat blank to
begin with. I would love to know the address of the source you found for those
hats.

Best Regards and
