The number of pics is fine, but yes, please scale the size of them down to 640x480 pixels. That's a nice looking hat, though! It looks good on you. It's all the better that your hatter is nearby! Keep in mind, though, that the Beaver Brand hats are beaver blends and not full, 100% beaver hats. The ...

I returned the jacket a few days after receiving it because it didn't fit. A few weeks later I sent Wested an email to confirm that they had received it. After not receiving a reply email I sent a follow up email asking again if it had been received. I did get a response to that email saying that t...

You know, I never saw a Federation with a red liner. Anyone else here ever buy one with a red liner. I like it, but every Federation I have ever seen, and I have seen 20 to 30 of them over the years, all came with a white liner

Steve,
Mine has the red liner in it

SHARPETOYS

Well he has another one on Ebay now... I'd say its pure hype...

Thats what I read.

Classic 1950's style jackets, based on the design of the famous 'McGregor Anti-Freeze' jacket worn by James Dean in Rebel Without A Cause

S

tretch that hat. Its pure beaver no way will you hurt the felt or the block.

SHARPETOYS

Very easy to fix. I have used woolite to clean liners in the past and it works just fine. Steve will send you a new liner if that for some reason doesn't work just PM him.

SHARPETOYS

Nice jackets both of them!!

What colors can you get the hat in now?

Just send Steve a pm or email with the color you want. It may take awhile if he has to tag in on a that color run.

I have them in Indy grey,black,chestnut, silverbelly and Indy brown.
I hope this helps.

What ever!

SHARPETOYS

I will toot it some myself as I have one from him I love. I also have 2 Optimo's which I love as well, but I'm curious which felt you are referrring to, the Winchester or the Portugal? regards fedoralover The USA felt. Alot of the hatters use the same felt as Steve does. The quality is consesent.

I was talking to a hatter and he told me The Adventurebilt was the best beaver hat he had ever seen no matter the price. He told me I should buy every color that Steve makes. If I didn't want another Indy style buy it anyway and have it styled by a hatter. He said Steve/Fedora 100% pure beaver hat ...

Marc,
I think you have done a sterling job on the new fedora.!!

Very nice beaver felt

Steve thats what I love about you. A humble man that helps others and does not need to toot his own horn like some hatters do!

I own 3 beavers now from Steve and a black one on the way.

Tried the rest bought the best

SHARPETOYS

I agree with Ren. The Akubra Federation with Shipping is $106.00. Adventurebilt is $160.00 including shipping or a difference of $54.00. Is $54.00 worth it to you for a custom made fedora??

SHARPETOYS

I spoke to Steve's mom today and they got the power back on. She will need a new roof and she lost all the food in the freezer. The main thing they all are ok!

SHARPETOYS

Wed AM. I called and Steve / Fedora he was out. They have no power and the best guess is Friday before the power will be on. They all are doing ok! Minor roof damage to there home.

SHARPETOYS

Marc,
I may have missed this but what color is your liner??
Thanks,

Sharpey

SHARPETOYS

This is what I think.

Adventurebilt Hats it’s like a luxury umbrella for your head!

SHARPETOYS

I think this is just great for both of you. I think that people that might have been hesitant to order a Adventurebilt fedora because of shipping or duty now will have another oppturnity to buy the finest Indy Fedora made.

SHARPETOYS

I love a Optimo hats and the one you have on your head looks great along with the model

Thanks, nice professional web site. Makes me want to go and buy another hat.

Quote. . I have never seen a hat worth 500 bucks. I have seen plenty of folks, including myself, who were mis-guided enough to spend that sort of money on a piece of fur, leather, rayon/cotton, and satin. So true folks you can own 3 of Steve's hat compared to only 1 hat of one of these "over pr...

To get those boxes you need to order 500 min. The cost is way over the top then Steve would need a large warehouse to store them. I can see if he did that some of you would also complain about that box. You are buying in most cases a 100% pure beaver hat. Check around most custom hats with a rabbitt...

Scwammy, I can almost guaruntee you that if that hat comes from vintage sillhouettes, its a good hat ;) And it looks great too :D High Regards, Daryl. Art Does a nice job on any hat. He puts his heart into each hat.He is my friend!! With that said I would not buy a Cuenca from him.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...

My hat from Steve aka Fedora was pounced real thin for me. It only comes in on postal scales at 2.1 oz. with all the trimmings.

My Montecristi fino fino came in just over a ounce.

Nice job Fedora.
