Vintage 1960s Bollman Red Felt Hat | Striped Grosgrain Ribbon Breton Hat | Merrimac Wool Hat

Vintage 1960s Bollman Red Felt Breton Hat – Striped Grosgrain Ribbon Bow Merrimac Body

Description

A striking vintage circa 1960s Bollman felt hat featuring a beautifully structured silhouette in a vivid lipstick-to-crimson red with bold multicolor grosgrain ribbon trim.

The hat has a rounded, slightly squared crown paired with a medium-width brim that turns subtly upward at the edge, giving it the classic tailored character of a Breton-style hat. Its clean architectural shape is wonderfully representative of the polished millinery styles of the 1960s.

A wide grosgrain ribbon encircles the crown in deep olive green, navy and bright red stripes. At the side, the ribbon is folded into a tailored dimensional bow, adding just enough ornament while maintaining the hat's crisp, sophisticated appearance. The combination of saturated red with dark green and navy gives the hat a particularly distinctive preppy, equestrian-inspired look.

The interior is beautifully finished in matching red and bears the Bollman maker's stamp along with a Merrimac body marking. The monochromatic felt construction and graphic striped ribbon make this an exceptionally wearable vintage statement hat.
