My Fed Deluxe: After One Year

Post by Alove »

This hat is great! Especially for those who can't afford/don't want to wait for an AB! I've fiddled with the bash and lately I found one that looks great on my head. The taper is very slight, and only visible if you look down on the hat. I've had to remove the metal wire, trimmed the brim to fit my face, and pounced the hat to a thinner and smoother finish.

This hat has accompanied me on many adventures, and I'm looking forward to many more

Especially liking the "head down," shot. You have worked it into a fine shape.

What size is your hat?

I ordered mine between 58 and 59cm, so I guess 58.5cm.

Wow, that looks like an Indy hat to me. I love the "worn" look of the hat. Hard to get that look unless you wear it. :tup: Fedora
