Hello everyone! I am new to the forum, or any forum for that matter. I am pretty excited about ordering my first real fedora. I have a fieldmaster on the way from Ken at Camptown. Ken has really been patient as I went through all of the trials and tribuations in deciding on a size, brim cut etc. At any rate, it may be shipping out by the end of the month! I can't wait to see how it turns out! Thanks for all your help Ken!

Welcome to Club Obi Wan! Make sure to mix your own drinks!
And jnicktem, you will be VERY pleased with your hat. The Fed IV Deluxe is absolutely awesome.

Hey guys! Thanks for the nice welcome! I am already discovering how expensive this is and also how you sometimes have to wait on the good stuff-but I too think its worth it. Just got some 405's on Ebay-saved $100 but they were still expensive.
-and Bogart, I am in the Charlotte area. Hope I did this post right.
