Viggo Mortenson’s fedora in “Red Tape”

I would love to get my hands on the exact (or a reasonable facsimile) of the beach fedora/bucket cap that Viggo Mortenson wore in the opening sequence of “Red Tape”… any assistance in determining  the brand of this vintage hat would be appreciated. I was always under the assumption that the cap was something that would have been sold in a Miami Beach tourist shop or worn by old men on the beach…

@Eddie Trumbull welcome to the forum!

Have you tried cropping the image of the hat and using Google image search?

I tried it for you, and it yielded a bunch of camouflage hats. :thumbsdown:

TY! It looks like sand dollars in the design, and I was hoping that it was a commonly seen brand in 80’s but I really don’t see anything similar out there online. Been looking for years.
