WOW!! You will be exceptionlly pleased!!You are getting a Quality, "Master Hand Crafted," Fedora!
When I ordered my first AB, I was on pins & needles.
But, when I opened the White box, My eyes, were of Silver Dollars.
You will be very pleased!!!
Have a Great Day!!

I've been in this game since 1989, and let me tell you - after six other fedoras, including two Dorfman Pacifics, a Stetson, Federation and the loathed Peters Bros Custom _ I, the AB is THE BEST bar none. It's the first fedora I've had where after nine months, in all weather, it's still perfectly shaped and when I wear it, it feels like it isn't there!
When I watched Indiana Jones films as a kid in the 1980s, I saw how Indy could just slap that sucker on his head and run - it was a pliable hat with a sometimes "bonnet" kind of quality in the way it conformed to his head - certainly not the virtual felt helmets I constantly ran across.
When I received my AB, I just knew that my ship had finally come in. Oh, the days have gone by and the arguments and discoveries we've all made along the way at Indyfan and COW and the many Buchanan Arms get togethers of years past -- it only took me 16 years to finally find the right hat and as I should have expected, it took an Indyfan to get it right.
Now to achieve my next ultimate goal - a Supermarine Spitfire MKII...SIGH...

It's an excellent hat---truly puts the others to shame.
