There is a guy on here or CGN that sells fur hats that he makes in different styles, and furs. Not cheap but they look to be excellent quality.

Unfortunately I don’t remember his name......

There is (was?) a place in West Ed Mall that sells nice hats. I bought my wife a beaver Mountie style hat, and I bought a sheep skin trapper there some years back. Both Canadian made, and the hat is probably my most cherished outerwear item. IIRC it was on the upper floor and not too far from the upper class men's wear store. Bought an alpaca scarf from that place.

Ive got fur I could sell you that is tanned or get some from Halfords. They sell all kinds of designs and stuff to help you make your own. I did it with my Beavers and made Mitts. Very rewarding and not hard to do. With a little time spent you can enjoy making your own. Just another option out there

Do look to The Goose!

Canada Goose hats that is. They are huge physical supporters of our coyote fur industry, and may even be considering using other types of fur.

Got to like it that they are professionally made!

Do not look at the goose almost $600 for a regular toque, how much would a fur hat cost
