New felt & new block

Hello!

I am happy to tell you that all adVintage Indy fedoras will now be made from the finest, smoothest and densest beaver felt you might have seen yet. Furthermore the colour of the felt now is real sable, and not dark brown anymore.

I also would like to annouce that I have a new crown block design for LC fedoras. This one is also available with curled brim, as seen in the Venice scenes e.g.. Here it is, made from the new sable beaver felt:

Here's a link to the product page: http://www.advintagefedora.de/shop/prod ... edora.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Please notice that all prices shown inlcude 19% German VAT. If you live outside the EU you do not have to pay this, so the Crusader would be about 243,-Euros, which is an incredible price for this quality, I think.

Thanks for reading!
Thomas

Very nice looking hat ;)
I was just curious, under size it only goes up to 61cm, is it possible to buy one in a bigger size?

Thanks for the interest. Yes, I will have new blocks in a few weeks, I can offer sizes up to 62.5cm then.

I unterstand what you mean and it was not my intention to leave somebody out. It was just a joke, and I think everybody knows what it means.

So did I. Apparently you missed all my 'smilies' too. :D

Surely you didn't think I was honestly concerned that your new felt would start posting in Portugese, did you? :M:

You got my joke, but I didn't get yours :oops: ](*,)
Maybe it's because I'm not a native speaker :lol:
Sorry!

Back to topic, if your felt is Portugese sourced, then it's WONDERFUL stuff! :M: :tup:

I own two fedoras made of the felt (not yours, but still.....) and it's great!

I have ALWAYS recommended the material when it's offered.

HIGH regards! Michaelson

ADV,The Herbert Johnson Poet fedora;how high´s the crown and when bashed to Raiders style what´s the height of the crown? If I order a 60 cm HJ..can the hat be stretched bigger? As the site says "order bigger size"....

The top of the open crown is 15cm. I always try to make the bash as screen acurate as possible, depends on hat size and scene, but we can alsways do custom specs. If your head circumference is 60cm, you should take a 61cm. Stretching the hat one size bigger is not possible.
