Starter

[Mycroft]

I have 3 "fedoras," an Indy one from Disney World, a crushable Boggart, and a Ecuadorian Twise. I am wondering what is a good starter fedora, that works with most to all clothing and dress? Also, prefreable a dicent price and good quality.

You may not like it out of the box though after some wear and the acquisition of the shape of your head so that it looks like it belongs on you and is not a seperate entity, the hat will wear well until you are ready for something of better quality.

Thanks alot Matt.

The hat might be dimentionally too big for some, having a 3" brim and all. Akubras are good for starters. if the brim is too much you can always have it cut down by a hat shop.

Thanks once again Matt.

To go along with Matt's thought here is hatsdirect link They have a wide selection of fedora's that are good starter hats. They are reputable and many here have bought hats from them, including myself.

Thanks Fedoralover, I especially like their Bogart and I also found a travel bag I like on their site.

Addtionally, are there any care products I should get to waterproof it and keep its shape (blocks etc.).
