The film looks good on you, Jason. You're right about the taper, though. I've handled both colors at the Bencraft shop. I have to tell you, a little taper isn't such a bad thing, is it? I Think it adds variety. You can always shape it with a diamond crease to diminish it.

Thanks guys, the strat is marked a 1/4. It doesn't appear to have been worn much if at all. I was going to steam it and give it a little shaping. Have worn it about 15 minutes and just felt tight after that time, but I think that it might loosen up a little if I wear it in short intervals.
I bought this one unadvertised as just being a Stetson in a box.
What a suprize to find out that it was a strat in mint cond. too!

What a nice surprise! Looks great. I hope you can get it to fit.

Thanks Manfred! Please check out my post on the Hombug Nation thread. I am already experimenting with a different brim shape and am worried I shouldn't be messing with it at all. I need your expert advice! :)

Fed IV

Hello everyone! I just received my new Fed IV last week and I really like it!
It's too hot here to wear it during the day, but I'm wearing it at night and
around the house to break it in.

Taupe Fawn. Got it today (less than a week from Hats Direct) - I was expecting a nice hat, but it exceeded my expectations. The color is a little darker that I thought it would be, but it is still a great color. Below are the very poor camera phone pictures of my first bash attempt (of any hat - my first open crown).
