THE “NO-NAME” COLLECTION
 

 Hat and Poncho
Sold Separately or as a set!
Inspired by the classic Hat and Poncho 
worn by Clint Eastwood In 
A Fistful of Dollars”  and his 
Man-With-No-Name” film trilogy!

 

Next to the swagger of John Wayne after he gets off a horse and walks into a saloon, there probably is no other image that personifies the classic western more than the first time we saw “The Man With No Name” “magically” appear out of a wind-devil of dust… his high-crown hat heavy over eagle eyes which pierced right through you with that permanent trademark squint, a cheroot clenched tightly between pearl white teeth and a dark green poncho draped over his tall thin frame. 

 

Yes, this immediate landmark character first blasted into our collective consciousness in Sergio Leone’s groundbreaking “A Fistful of Dollars”, which launched the Spaghetti Western and catapulted a young Clint Eastwood to stardom, and made his “Man With No Name” persona instantly legendary (though true Eastwood trivia buffs will tell you that he’s actually called by the name of “Joe” once in the movie!).  Based on Akira Kurosawa's 1961 samurai picture “Yojimbo”, “Fistful” took hold all over the world like a prairie fire as it reinvented the western myth, and spawned a stunning trilogy, with two even more amazing sequels, “For a Few Dollars More” and “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly”, (and of course completed this redefining of the West with what many feel to be Leone’s masterwork: “Once Upon A Time In The West”).  Point being… the western was never the same again. Gone was the hero with the righteousness of law and order and making the streets safe for women and children. Instead we celebrated the iconoclastic fiercely independent anti-hero, who believed that it’s every man for himself. However even these nihilistic exercises in adagio-paced lentissimo set pieces had their own sense of morality. 

You sometimes had to dig deep through the dung and dirt of a character, but if you found anything resembling a soul lurking deep in the abyss, it usually triumphed, and was always forgiven. Striking too, was a new emphasis on violence, with stylized, almost balletic gunfights and baroque touches that had more to do with Italian Grand Opera (thanks also to the astounding and equally groundbreaking music of Enno Morricone, who just by coincidence, was Leone’s Elementary School classmate!), than any American “horse opera” ever could attempt.

The Hat
Baron Hats has been getting requests for this classic hat for years, but Master Hat Maker and owner, Mark Mejia did not want to offer it until he found the absolutely right material for the hat and hatband. Mark creates the hat himself in his Baron Hats studio in Burbank, California using a block carved from one of the original Italian/Spanish blocks, and uses only 100% (no blends) Fur Felts or Beavers (depending on what you order), to the exacting specifications of the original. The hat band is hand-tooled leather, crafted exclusively for Baron Hats in Scio, Italy (Mark’s Grandmother was born there, so he has special “pull” to get just the right craftsmen!). If you’d like to have your hat look like you’ve been riding the hot and dusty plains of Spain, or the Wild West, we can “age” it with our patented exclusive “weathering” process, right down to the infamous bullet hole in the crown! (See photo and info on  aging your hat below),

Please note: The color of your hat will be just like the original. However, because of the many variances in computer monitors, the color you see on your screen may be slightly different that the actual custom made hat. Rest assured, you are getting the original hat in the original color!

No-Name Hat With 
SPECIAL AGING!
Have your custom hat aged with our exclusive patented aging process, which will make your hat look and feel like your favorite pair of age-old Wranglers. The "No-Name" is aged to the exact details of the original from the Leone trilogy... and yes, we even add the infamous "bullet hole" in the crown (it's actually embroidered around the edge and carefully created so it won't tear, and no, we don't take the hat out back and shoot it!), for an additional $75! [NOTE: if you'd like to have your hat aged, but WITHOUT the bullet hole, simply type "no bullet hole" in the "Special Instructions" section of the order page]

THE PONCHO
In addition to the countless requests for the "No-Name" Hat,  Mark Mejia has received numerous inquiries as to where the poncho could be acquired as well.  Seeing a need that needed to be filled, Mark wouldn't commit to offering the poncho until he found just the right weaver.  This  poncho in particular had to be tough and resilient, but also  light-weight enough so any “stranger” could toss it over his shoulder at a moment’s notice to expose gun and blade, whip and homemade bulletproof armor! Mark searched the globe, and found just the right material and weavers in Oaxaca, Mexico. 

The famous local master weavers use indigenous native wool and rare exotic dyes obtained from such natural sources as the grana cochinilla insect, and indigenous flora and fauna like cactus, huizache, rock moss, and even their own coastal sea snails which are captured, milked for their colorful essence, and then returned safely to the sea! Mark worked for months with these craftsmen to create a pattern inspired by the famous poncho of “No Name” movie fame with the unmistakable, and the truly authentic original color: "Deep Dark Forest Green" dye, along with the bone-wash inlay design and hand-knotted trim. 

And in honor of Ennio Morricone's recent honorary Oscar® for his lifetime of work, including scoring virtually all of Sergio Leone's classic Westerns, we have created a special limited time sale price on these ponchos!

Please note: Each authentic "No Name" Poncho is hand woven to order. Because these are made exclusively for us by the original weavers, there can be delays between the order date and when they are finished and shipped to us. We will do are best to get them to you as soon as possible, but please remember these weavers are proud craftsmen and perfectionists, and they will only ship their work when it is prefect in their eyes. We will make every effort to keep you informed on the status of your specially made Poncho. Please allow at least six weeks for delivery and always feel free to contact us as well on your order. We promise that the wait will be worth it!

The color of your poncho will be just like the original. However, because of the many variances in computer monitors, the color you see on your screen may be slightly different that the actual custom made poncho . Rest assured, you are getting the original poncho in the original color!
