Limited Edition! OK, I laughed too when I first saw this trooper hat. But when I saw the $1,400 price, I knew I missed something. This hat is so chi-chi that it is out there. Guaranteed nobody else will be wearing this. Unique is hard to do, but this does it, and does it well. It has a matte crocodile skin lining with super soft nutria fur.
