Indy style fedoras in europe!

Post by 7th_son »

Hello! I want to buy a indy style fedora, but i live in Europe (Poland). Some time ago i wrote about making custom hat by hatmaker in my city, i went to him, and he said he is too old to make a new hat, he now repairs hats, so i decided to buy one from other source.

Regards!

I got one shipped to the US, I see no reason why they wouldn't ship to Poland. :TOH:

For AB hat you have to wait a lot of time, and prices... For average person in Poland the cost of deluxe version is about 2 months of work. I'm looking for a little cheaper ones (200USD/150EUR/600PLN).

The Henry is different than the Deluxe. The Henry is a factory made hat.

Yes, I would also recommend advintage fedora. Thomas is great to deal with and he's located in Germany. I bought a HJ from him and also one of junior fedoras. I gave that Junior fedora as a birthdaypresent of a friend of mine. I saw it back a couple of days ago and it is still in top notch condition after a couple months of wearing. And it's not expensive at all. I would recommend this hat for people in Europe on a budget.
NEVER EVER buy an officially licensed fedora. I did that when I was a teenager. Boy, how I regretted it!

If you find any european Indy fedora vendors not on my list would you please let me know?
I'm NOT interested in vendors who only stock the Official Licensed IJ hat, those don't look correct.
