I sent my AB to Steve to have him trim it down to the CS size and had him re-bash it into a CS bash. Before pics on the left, After pics on the right. I couldn't be more pleased. It even seems to fit better now
Thanks Steve!

I read transformed so I thought it turned in to a robot. It looks good, can't wait for my AB CS to arrive, sometime next year!

Dang! Not that is one sharp looking lid. They always look best when worn.

Thanks guys! It was already my favorite fedora, but now I like it even more! It even fits better, best fitting hat I've had so far.

Don't you love it when that happens?
Out of all my hats I think I have two that are utter perfection in the fit department.
Cheers!
