Scala "straw" paper hats....
It these hats had leather sweatbands I'd try that. But these are "cheap" and only have a ribbon sweatband. I'll post pics tonight (or at least try to post pics tonight) ;) Thanks -

Scala "straw" paper hats....
My wife was shopping at a local department store today and she found some Scala "straw" paper hats. She bought a large and a medium. The price tag says $40 but she only paid $5 each. Anyways, my question is is there anyway to shrink the large or to stretch the medium as neither one fits as... -

NEWBIE: I need help finding a fedora
I own 2 Stetson Temples (brown and gray) and one Akubra Federation IV. I love my Stetsons. But the leather sweatband isn't very soft even after being well broken in. The sweatband issue was the only reason I went with the Fed IV. Now that I have the Fed IV, I see it's much more durable for... -
Negative Reactions?
I said nothing. I just gave her an unamused look as I finished pumping gas. About a million things went through my head, but I'm trying to be not as rude as most people my age (27), so I said nothing. [huh]- Randal

Negative Reactions?
"Who are you supposed to be?" The other day I was coming home from work and I stopped to get gas. It was raining so I was wearing my black trench coat over my usual work wear (workboots, work pants, button-down work shirt, FED IV). So I'm standing there pumping gas and getting a bunch of odd...- Randal

Reducing hat size
I used to use the felt squares from Walmart as mentioned above, but now I use a "Foamies" 2mm thick foam sheet (also from the Walmart crafts dept.) I think it was 50-60 cents each for a 9inX12in sheet. They seem to work better, for me anyways. [huh] I think they are easier to cut to the size... -

Does anyone wear their hats tipped back?
It depends. Sometimes I wear it tilted back, but most of the time I wear it pretty level with the sweatband about 1 to 1.5 in above my eyebrows... Just wear it how it feels best... -
My son's Easter suit.
Thanks for the replies (both positive and negative). I would just like to note that we do not regularly dress our son in suits. This is just for Easter and a family portrait. -
What's behind your sweatband?
You should be able to get them at your bank (I had to go to the main branch). I got 5 uncirculated $2 bills in sequence. I don't know why, but I really like the $2 bill... -
Finally, Posting my new FED...
Yeah pretty much. I really appreciate the help, sir. -
Finally, Posting my new FED...
I took your guys' advise and worked on the back a bit. I like it better this way. Thanks! Sorry again for the bad cell pics, and the first 3 pics are backwards b/c the portrait feature on the phone reverses them for some reason. -

Finally, Posting my new FED...
I used a little steam on the pinch so it would hold the way I like it, but the rest is dry. -

What's behind your sweatband?
My wife was poking fun at me the other day and told me I was odd (I'm not disagreeing) because I keep things in the sweatbands of my hats. Besides the pieces of felt I use for sizing issues, I have one of my business cards tucked in the back and a $2 bill tucked in the front of the sweatband of...
