I was wondering how I could stretch my hat using some homemade remedies? It has a leather sweatband and furfelt.

Ah, idk why i didnt see this thread, both hats were purchased brand new, the stetson was bought in Chicago at Sid's Clothing, and the Stefeno was purchased from Hats-plus also in chicago via internet, i'll post pictures later when i get the chance. Thank you for whoever switched the thread for me.

The Quality of a hat I was wondering what goes into the quality of a hat. My first hat was a Stetson Inwood, a 4in crown and 1 3/4 in stingy brim, and 2ndly a Stefeno Boston 4in crown, 2in brim. The biggest differences i noticed was the following: The Stetson had probably half the...

The list price on it said 135 i believe, and it was on sale for 80 bucks. Ive seen a few swing dancers in our area with Stacy Adams just from the pin they come with, but apparently its fur felt. I'm thinking of going ahead and getting it. I just want something to wear in the winter that has a...

80 bucks for a Stacy Adam's furfelt hat? So i found a fedora online for 80 bucks brand new on clearance in my size. What's your guy's oppinions for 80 bucks for a fur felt hat? i'm struggling to find one under 100 bucks and this is the closest one right now. The brand is Stacy Adams, and ive...

Haha its funny you mentioned the skulls on the trilby fedora, the first one i Officially got was a cloth one from walmart that had a skull on it. It is definitely 100% crushable after how many times people attempt to steal it, but it was only 10 bucks and not what i count as a first hat. I...

I do have to say after purchasing the Stetson Inwood, wool feels really rough, and i've been told wool felt is not very weather resistant and tends to deform quite easily. Is this all true from first hand experience maybe? Also, are there a few good brands to look for? I know Dobbs, Stetson...

The next one I was thinking of getting was an Indiana Jones licensed hat which seem to be about 30 bucks. Other than that, i'm looking into a more casual go to hat that's wool felt and not as expensive at this first hat i have.

Here is a photo of my hat that i promised. I think im getting the idea of what formal and casual is now with hats being quite new to this world of clothing. I do have a peacoat, so when it gets colder out, im thinking of wearing it with that.

It's the basic black, a photo is to upload soon! I figured black would be a good safe color, and since i swing dance, would go quite well with just about anything. I may have to get some new hat feathers that are blue, because most of my wardrobe is blue. With the exception of a red shirt from...

Hi Fedora Lounge! This is my first post after purchasing a Stetson Inwood as my first hat! Got it from Sid's Clothing in Chicago. 1 3/4in brim, and i think a 4in crown? However i'm surprised the search bar didn't actually find this hat anywhere on the site. Anyway, being a college student...
