    Bound vs. Raw Edge Brim?

    Bound edge, yay or nay? My opinion is that bound edges is a big YAY, but what do you prefer, bound or unbound? and yes, it depends on the hat but still I think the bound edges look better, always :) /Alexander

    Price range hats

    I live in a "suburb" to Lund (skåne). There are vintage/antique shops in Lund but they have like 90% old-ladies clothes and the rest are mostly furniture. And because I dont have a drivers license it´s rather difficult for me to get to other cities and towns.

    Price range hats

    We are all familiar with the real pricey hats like Stetson, akubra and borsalino but there have to be manufactors that make good looking fedoras for less money than those above (Scala is one of the cheaper ones I think, but who else make fedoras that doesnt make your wallet cry?

    casual place for hats

    I never take my hat off at fastfood resturants, not even while I´m eating but if I eat at a resturants with a little more "quality" I take off the hat while eating not when standing in line to order, unless you order to a waiter at your table :)
