It's a long shot, I know... but does anyone know where to get something similar?

Anyone have a clear shot of it that they can post here? It'll help the search, is all.

Thanks in advance, Bond experts! :)
 
It is a pimp hat:

I wouldn't mind having one of these myself. Loved Goldfinger. Favorite Bond Movie!
 
I checked that Village Hat Shop link (I was looking for the same hat when I ran into this thread in the RPF) and found this one: http://www.villagehatshop.com/goorin-bros-vinny-fedora.html
If you look closely near the hat band of Bond's golf hat, there seems to be a wider weave to the straw. This one - the Vinny - seems close and is also closer to the actual color.
Thanks for posting this thread - I think I'm getting one!
 
Hey guys,

I too was in search of a hat similar to this one. At first I thought it was a trilby, much like the felt version bond wears in the first few films, but then noticed that it doesn't have a factory pinch. I'm pretty sure this is simply a Porkpie with a stingy brim and a "tear drop" C dent.

I just purchased this hat as I think it's very very close. All it needs is a little pinch in the front and to be worn slightly crooked to achieve the screen look. (and a new ribbon if you really wanted it to be identical).

I'll post pics when I get it to compare to the screen shots.

Cheers!
Tom
