They called me back this afternoon, unfortunately no more FL pricing. Regardless I went and put my order in for a modified "Tankersley" with a slightly lower crown, slight rake in natural. Ribbon treatment (matching brim edging) TBD.
I have read some people having issues with sizing being too...
I went and gave Peters Bros a call this afternoon. Talked with Shane a bit and he is going to get a hold of Brad to see if there is any FL discounts. Good news is they found another spool of the forest green ribbon...
As warm weather approaches in the southern US the heat and humidity will be here before I know it (May-Sept not ideal weather for fur felt). That and a potential cruise coming up for my 15 yr Anniversary in November got me thinking I need to find a decent warm weather straw type hat. I am...
Thanks everyone. Sounds like I need to give them a call. I better first re-read this thread and have a better idea on specs before hand, just in case.....
As the summer quickly comes to the south I am considering adding a panama/Milan/hemp/straw type fedora style hat to the rotation before the heat and humidity prevent the daily wear of my modest fur felt collection (or they will be dripping wet with sweat and probably get stained). I came across...
Thanks for the replies! I just checked out paypal friend and family fees (below); seem to be less hassle and costs than using western union or wiring funds from your bank account.
Sending to other countries.
If you are a U.S. PayPal account holder sending money to a friend or family member with...
Hello Everyone, I had a question that I am not sure if this is the correct place to ask but wanted to ask other's on how they pay for hats that are outside the US? I have done a couple transactions with some excellent FL members and always sent money by paypal (as friend) to save the fees on...
I can use a gray hat! If I only didn't buy 3 hats in the last week from this forum!! LOL Anyway I am not familiar with this Modern Stetson in what appears to be ideal dimensions. Just curious if this is specific to Delmonico?
Looking for Hat Rack Ideas
Prior to my newly discovered hobby (Hats!) my main hobby is making or restoring stuff from car restoration, mechanics, wood working, cabinetry etc etc I dable in all sorts of areas....next on my list is to make some sort of hat rack. For those of you that have...
I myself have been on the search for cheap lids with potential, ever since I gave new life to the champ. Some of these vintage lids are a little to $$ for me plus it is fun to see if what you can do to a beater. Next is to find some hats that may require liner work or sweatband replacement for...
Is it true the bluegrass green standard felt is one of the softest which comes close to the deluxe felt (not referring to recent issues at Akubra with members not being satisfied with felt quality)? Thanks
Hi Roger, I recently picked up a modern Stratoliner from a fellow FL member. Although not vintage it is so far it is not it is my most worn hat (love the syle). Will you be posting yours for sale soon?
Thanks, I used VM&P Naptha. I saturated the hat and gently worked the hat with a new microfiber towel, repeated it a couple of times and dried with a box fan over night, I decided not to follow the method of soaking the entire hat (would of taken a lot of solvent and would of been a little...
Recently picked up and restored Champ. I know this is not a desirable vintage hat or as nice a lid as most of other members really nice vintage hats. I don't know the age but is my first non-modern hat. The brim is 2.5" and 5" crown (open) so the dimensions were favorable and appears to be light...
