    Art Fawcett VS Hall of Fame

    After almost 2 years I have returned. Because I am looking to order another hat from Art. The collection stopped at 5 or 6.. and I lost interest due to not wanting to spend more $ for a while. My VS Black Cherry was mostly based on the hat from Public Enemies.. with some input from Art himself...

    Art Fawcett VS Hall of Fame

    Haven't posted here in ages. I have two Art Fawcett hats and I wear them all the time. Spent the whole Winter in my Black Cherry and I'm starting to get the itch to get a third. I have an old dobbs stingy (well 2" not like the trendy 1" stingy they sell at the mall) that is probably my favorite...

    Some really nice looking new hats in here guys! I have been absent from the lounge for a while, so I had to come back to this specific thread!! Summer meant wearing my lousy $80 panama all the time, waiting patiently for it to be cold enough to wear my VS hats more than just in the house...

    Very very nice. Looks great. I agree, it works with the longish hair. I could never pull that off!

    Handlebar Bart. Great side shot. what kind of crease is that? it almost looks wider at the top than at the brim! (reverse taper?) The bow is very nice too.

    The nicest comment I ever heard

    I'm convinced that if they could get them easily, and for less than the 'hardcore' prices we pay, that a lot of young people in their late teens and early 20's would wear fedoras. I get tons of compliments on my hats. and about half of them are from that age group.

    Art Fawcett VS Hall of Fame

    I'm pretty sure this is still a different color from Optimo Oxblood based on conversations with Art and from pictures... But its close enough for me. As for Optimo, i think they are awesome. I just happen to like Art, his work is magnificent. I like the fact that he fits the hats using a...

    I've very satisfied as well. Art is my hero at the moment. :) Gotta get some shots wearing it, but those are hard to take a good one of by yourself. I always feel self conscious taking my own picture. I did a photo set like this for my VS Mojave but i figure i'll put it up in a day or two...

    It arrived creased, Thanks! I just wanted to check the reference material to see how close it was to the movie pics. I'm not sure it will STAY like the movie but i thought that'd be a good start. :) Q: What does 'Soft roll' front pinch mean? I cannot thank you enough for this awesome...

    Thank You! That link helps! It looks like its bashed just in the classic 'straight down the middle' (What is the proper name of that style? Reminds me of a taco!) with a pinch on the sides in front, in those pictures. Looks like no complex diamonds or anything.
