Just trust in yourself and you'll do fine. I bet you'll be terrified at first, but you'll get used to it. I wear my indy fedora mostly with black heavy metal tees, cargo pants, MK VII bag and M41 field jacket. Sometimes when it's too hot, I find myself annoyed by the fact that I can't wear my hat. :...

Maybe it's just me then.. I'm hairless, and during the hot days the leather band seems to make the hat as it feels like a shower cap around my bald head. Plus, taking care of two _very_ active little girls tends to make the sweat flow.

I've been wearing it a few days now, it's already starting to look better I think. It's #### hot here in Finland right now, I had to remove the lining to keep my brains from boiling.

Bartram, I think you're right. I'll have to fix that.. Up the Irons!

Hi everyone, first time poster here. I've been reading about Todd's standard and it's sizes so much it gives me a headache. I can't decide..

Anyway, I was wondering how the lenght is measured. Does it include the collar stand?
