Hey all,
Was looking at my fedora today idly, and started wondering... was there an inventor of the fedora? Probably not, but...if it was an evolution, when was the shift? How did it develop and why? Does anyone know or have sources they can send me to? It's a question I'd like to research.
Oh, and as far as the death of men's hats is concerned, many people attribute that to JFK.... but this website has serious, compelling evidence to suggest otherwise. By the way, this is a real research link, not some ham-handed attempt at humor on my part. So don't worry, you won't be sent to wallyworld.com or anything.

Anyway, take it easy guys and gals.
