Hi! I'm the owner of 5 Tilley Hats and the author of "The Endurable Alex Tilley" - the authorized biography of the man beneath the world-famous hat. Despite owning 5 Tilleys, I'm not a "technical" hat person, but I can answer all sorts of questions about Alex's life and business.

Welcome!! I also have about 5 Tilley Hats and am a Huge Fan!! I just finished reading your book and loved it!! It is so interesting to see the inside workings of Tilley. You may be able to help with some of the questions we have about the hats.

Hello, a new Tilley hat owner here, a TH5. I bought it in California this past July, and it's been on my head a lot! I broke it in last week on a serious hike in the upper peninsula of Michigan. I love it!
Edit: Just a few more details, the hat is olive, size 7/12, tags say Made in Canada. I was strolling along the waterside path in Long Beach when I walked by a hat shop. I thought I should ought to take a look at something that would protect from the hot sun, and when I came to a rack filled with Tilleys. Found the TH5, paid $99, and left with this hemp hat on my head.

Hi! Own(ed) one most beloved Tilley that I am trying to replace. Possibly a T4 in cotton (color stone or khaki). It's been all over the world with me since I got it in 2016 (it replaced a similar Tilley hemp hat when I was not a fan of that floppier brim). I got some help on Reddit trying to ID the model so I can replace it. I lost it in a mad rush to LAX after a visit to the Channel Islands NP, USA (no luck with the LAX lost and found or the rental car one).
Also own another Tilley I will have to find and maybe post to trade or sell. It was purchased in either 2005 or 2006 for my husband and he wears something else these days. I'll get back to you all with the model and size!

Hi, I just joined the Tilley forum. I started with a T3 in 2001 and had that until this year when it was lost. I have since acquired 2 T3’s an ltm5 and an ltm3. All second hand but good condition. I have been enjoying reading the forum. I might try finding a hemp Tilley.

The various models represent a middle ground between the light, relatively floppy, nylon Tilleys and the heavier but stiffer cotton duck hats. Good luck!

I'm sure a T4 in your color and your size will show up soon. Thanks! Need to amend the size--I ordered a T5 to try in a 7 and it's tight! Followed their measurement guidelines but I'll need to go up--not sure if 7 and 1/8, 1/4, or 3/8. Also made clear I do not like the T5 and need a wider brim. Trying on my spouse's old 7 1/2 it's definitely too big. I'll head over the other board to see if anyone's interested in it--2005, LT3 Nylon in khaki, 7 1/2. Rarely worn.
