Filson Packer Hat

  

Filson Tin Cloth Packer Hat

This hat is great in the rain.  C. C. Filson started his eponymous company in 1897 in Seattle, Washington to supply the Great Klondike Gold Rush.  Check out the Cruiser Jacket and Mackinaw Cap among their other items still made in Seattle.  The cap reminds me of Elmer Fudd... really Robin Williams impression of the wabbit hunter.
