Trying to Find a Fedora

[Rylee]

I have looked everywhere, and I am trying to find specific styles of fedoras, my friend and I are cosplaying as people who are from the 30'. I will be doing Firo Prochainezo http://anipb.sloanime.org/liki/firo.jpg. And my friend will be doing Sven Volfied http://cerealkiller.i.ph/photo/d/1463-1/sven_20from_20tbs_co_jp.jpg?g2_GALLERYSID=TMP_SESSION_ID_DI_NOISSES_PMT Im sorry if this is the wrong area to post it. But I figured sense this has to do with hats and Im looking for hats it could help. If you know where I could get them for a pretty descent price that would be lovely. If it needs a little modifing that is alright, but itd be nice to get the closes we can.

I am not sure about the first, although I would start watching Ebay for vintage hats. The shorter brims like that don't command as high of price. The second looks to me like it would be great as a panama, especially with the white suit, and for that I would go to Panama Bob.

Cool! Baccano! is one of my favorite shows!
BTW I'm not too sure that Firo's lid is common to the 30s despite the setting.

The first Firo's looks to be a bucket/walking hat. Though a short brim tribly with the brim flipped down might also work.
The second, would be difficult to find a white fedora so I'd second the suggestion of a Panama Bob.

Firo's hat is supposed to be the latter. It's just that the Japanese animators have a hard time drawing fedoras, apparently.
