Chuck Mangione does NOT wear a pork pie hat. The pork pie hat has a very small brim. Chuck wears a fedora hat which has a much larger brim. Here is a direct quote from the description of The Best of Chuck Mangione album "With his distinctive flugelhorn tone and trademark fedora, Chuck Mangione rose from the jazz scene to the pop charts in the '70s....."
Versace
very posh and expensive ones like this
They are most definitely NOT standard Fedoras. They tend to be larger and have a wide rim.The Blues Brothers' hat is a classic black Trilby with a 2" rim. They are sometimes descibed as a Fedora Trilby.The most common reference is "Trilby with Stingy Rim" but if you want to buy one, beware. You get what you pay for.There are a lot of cheap hats out there but they won't last 5 minutes. First drop of rain and that's your lot.Find a proper gentleman's outfitter and expect to pay for quality. A quality hat will last for years.
