The Fedora that fits your face.

I do say.. this photo always puts me in the spirit of going for a stingy brim... but I need the skinny lapels and skinny tie to go with it.

 

Hey Matt:
An interesting thread revival after 12 years. Any chance of an update pic?
I wonder what we Twelve Years After crowd think about said topic. So many hats and members later.
Ps: i still love the black wide ribbon Premier Strat i got from you. I believe it was a proto-type to your new line. Great job!!
Be well. Bowen

 

Aaand...I have a long-oval head.
What do you gentlemen recommend for a Fedora style or "semi-Fedora/Akubra style".

 

I would say a slightly tapered crown, not too tall (4 1/2" at the front).....medium width brim 2 1/2 to 2 3/4".
In Akkubra fedora styles look at the Sydney or Stylemaster. Stetson Stratoliner is in that range for a few more bucks. In an outback style look at the Akubra Angler or Banjo Paterson.
