For what it´s worth, my very old and battered hat, a fair bit fashioned by me as you can tell

Lining has gone, the staining on the inside looks like a rugby players jockstrap but the band is from an Ostrich I shot in SA, the .500 Woodleigh from my Buff in the Selous and the partridge feather from a shoot in the UK. It has also fished with me on 4 continents, memories. I´d hate to lose it
