I got one. While good I like the Akubra Fed IV alot better.

I am have some trouble keeping the brims of my hats in the right shape. They tend to get wavy. Is there something that can help me with this? Also, it takes me about 45 min to get it strait again. Is there a trick to getting the brim in good shape quick?

I want to get some caps. I have never had one before. Any suggestions? I have hear people say to get cotton because it is cool. I have read to stay away from linen because it is hat. What about wool? I was thinking about a nice herringbone. I want to get 3 or 4 nice caps. What is a good price...

I was thinking about this hat but have read only bad things compared to Akubra. All you seem to like it, I think I will get one.

can you put a porkpie bash in an open crown without it looking funny? Or should a porkpie have that special kind of brim?

the fed IV moonstone is a felt in light gray.

WOW I didn't think there was that big of a diff! I just ordered a temple and a Fed, maybe I should send back the temple.

Ok so how do you rebash? Also, what makes it not get bent out of shape? Is it when you shape it, you steam it? Then whatever shape it was when wet it will return to?

Thanks I was wondering how to do it!!!

Bud is the King of Beers!!

Nice I think I will get one now

I really like the Federation IV!

I am looking for an ok fur felt fedora for around $100. Can I do this or do I have to get a wool hat for that price? Have any of you found any? I know hats plus has one that I got but I need one in black. Hats in the belfry has some. Are they high quality. Or should I just go with wool at this...
