    Hats in heat!!

    Hello, my fellow hat people. It's been a while since my last post, I'm back. I'm planning to store my over 70 or so fedora hats in my garage, where temperatures during summer can reach 100 degrees. Would my hats be OK there? My wife is threatening to throw me out of the house if I can't find a...

    Vintage Hats

    What determines a "Vintage" Fedora. I understand they are better made and higher quality than new modern ones. How can I tell if a hat is truly vintage. How old it is? A particular date or era? I would like to seek them out, but, what do I look for and what should I know and understand before...

    I want to know...

    ...more about welting. I've seen hats with underwelt and overwelt, some have welting others to not. Other than stylistic considerations, is their a more fundamental reason for welting? Which do you prefer? Welt or no welt, underwelt or overwelt. Why? you may ask; welt, just curious! -Al
