Greetings all,
After being out of the Indy world for several years, I decided last summer to take out my old Akubra Fed and put it in the sun to lighten the color (which worked fine--it now is very close in color to my 1990's HJ).
The problem is that I succeeded in fading the ribbon, so that it now matches the color of the hat.
Can any of you recommend a reputable hatter that can do a ribbon replacement for me? (I know this is not a big job for a hatter).
Thanks so much.
Joe

David Garrison used to offer his ribbon for sale or replacement on other hats. Give him a shout.

You're welcome? Not trying to step on any toes. As Michaelson said, trying to give options.

Re: Hat ribbon replacement
I figured as much. Just yankin' your chain. You can never have too many options in this biz.
