Steele and Jones

Post by wilbyc82 »

Hi guys

Just arrived home from work to find a large box on the armchair. Very excited!!!!!

On opening the box, I was gobsmacked by the quality of this hat, especially considering the modest pricetag.

The quality of the felt is top notch. In addition, the lining and sweatband feel excellent!

Very happy with the block. They have truelly captured the style of the SOC fedora. Nice job with the weathering too.

Many Thanks to Diego!

Kind Regards

Colin

Here are a few pics (fresh out of the box).

That's an amazing looking Explorador! I'm curious to know the crown height on this one.

Cheers

The crown is just shy of 5 inches high.
