Brad, you dog! I've been waiting for the formal introduction, but instead, I see an example first. :D

It looks great Lincoln, but I think we need an entire thread on this new hatter - and some more shots of your hat, of course. :eusa_clap

I know what you mean. But I just had to have at least one Homburg -- and given the color and condition of this one, I couldn't pass it up. Still, it's going to be a real bear to get that low swoop on the brim...;)

Cheers,

Here is my new FED IV with its completed crease. I have posted more shots on the Akubra Overload thread the Non-Indy threads for anyone interested.

Is this considered a top quality vintage hat? It's a 7.5 but it's definitely shrunk a little bit, I need it stretched.

I decided it doesn't need a stretch, but it will if I keep growing my hair out. Fits really well when tipped a bit to the left, I really love the hat and the felt is very thin and pliable, I had to use stiffener and steam the hat for the bash to stick.

My First Fedora

I just purchased an Akubra Stylemaster in carbon grey color off ebay and have not received it yet. It is shown in my avatar. I hope to attach some more photos for your consideration and comments. This is my first post. Thanks

Welcome, and nice start with both the hat and being one of the very select few to figure out how to post photos on the first try. :eusa_clap

I do not have a key to that clubhouse. :eek:

Welcome to the Lounge Guinness! The Stylemaster is a nice hat for the money. I got one in steel gray a few months ago and I find it to be a nice quality mass produced hat that can be worn with both dressier attire and more casual attire.
