I'll definitely give that a try then! thanks! I used some water to get the hard pinch in the front (indy style), and I was surprised how well it holds once it dries. This is my first fedora so I'm learning a whole lot :). I didn't realize that the water would work just as well on the brim even...
I wear it straight, but just because it feels right that way. I tried the tilted, but with my Federation the crown just seems to tall to be tilted. Maybe I'm just not used to it yet, but straight is the way for me.
Unless I'm sitting at a bar or some high top table...then I tend to sit it...
Hey guys!
This is a total newbie question and I would appreciate some help :)
I got a new Akubra Federation for Christmas and have been working with the bash quite a bit to get the style I'm going for, but I'm not sure what I need to do with the brim. I love the snap to it, but it just snaps...

What are the Lucasfilm guys thinking?! At least you get really nice box for it to go in O_o
I haven't received my fedora yet, but I am anticipating those first wear jitters. I do find it easier to wear "different" stuff when I'm out with friends, so maybe not going solo the first few times will help. People you're comfortable with usually tend to make you feel more comfortable despite...
Hey everybody. New guy here :)
I've actually got my first "real" fedora on the way for Christmas. A carbon grey Akubra Federation, which I've heard is a great hat. Up to now I've just had one of the "official" Indiana Jones fedoras. Yeah, I know it's sad ;)
