The gray Fed.

Ok, here's the new and improved Gray Federation. This one had a better block shape than the brown one. It didn't have as much "flare" at the bottom of the crown. I actually managed to get rid of most of it by steaming and pushing out the sides. Believe it or not, I THINK I'm actually happy with it now...for the moment... :roll:

This hat actually "shed" a bit...light fuzz would rub off. It seems to have quit for the most part now.

Now, when worn with a jaunty rake in true '30's style, you wouldn't notice any taper anyway!

Nice! And it really does look GREY and not sort of a blended greyish brown. I've thought about picking up a grey and a black one the next time I have some disposeable income lying around. Nice to see a good color example here.

And the white tie definitely helps the image, ya palooka. :)
