"New" Stratton Fedora - I'm In Love

Post by TheSavoryTrim »

Oh, I am absolutely ENAMORED with this lid. I bought this today from Strider and could not be more happy with it. Love love love. Squee.

Pardon the homely woman under the hat, she is only there to display its glory.

Y'all are too kind, really. :) It's all due to Strider's impeccable taste; he wanted to put this hat up for sale on eBay and I threw an absolute fit and demanded he sell it to me instead.

I love bound brims. They behave like an entirely different animal altogether ...

Can I pay you in glitter and puppies and sparklehugs and other girly things?

And all of my fedoras have the bound edge, interestingly enough. It seems to be the typical finish for vintage fedoras in this style, with these kind of specifications.

And thank you for the kind words, guys.
