How do folks react to your hat wearing?
That big pit bull mix is Allie. Allie does not like hats. She picked me up from at least 50 yards away and started barking and running towards me. It was a little unnerving; but, I am well accustomed to dogs and she was still wagging her tail and the hair on her back was sticking up. So I... -
What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?
Harv, sweet Resistol, I like the blockshape on that one, nice and straight. Eric: nice pair of Executives! Alan: great combo, that's a very unusual felt color. Richard: great semi calado! I'm waiting for straw weather out here.... Steve: another wonderful Borso! -

What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?
Wow! What's the time period on that one? That's strikes me as a fairly wide brim for a Homburg (although I'm definitely not familiar with European styles). That's a great lid though. -
Ask a question, get an answer
But of course. I think of them as general guidelines more so than hard and fast rules. While it's definitely true that different widths/heights suit different face shapes; that doesn't mean that only one type of hat will look good on any particular person. -

Penman Hats

Dating Your Hat (A Place to Discuss the Age of Your Vintage Hat)

Akubra Campdraft
Theoretically, I could see the front to back taper being stretched out a little bit, but just easing it out isn't likely to do much from a head on view to make the crown look more tapered. A lot depends on the blockshape too. -
The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD
Yeah, if you're really, really, really attached to that hat, have it rebuilt; but in all likelihood, you'll lose some width off the brim. Two sizes is too much for simply stretching it out. -

WOW! That's a great color combo (and I don't even like brown hats that much). I'm thinking that might be the "Stetson Employee Factory Store Reject" stamp, see the Island of Misfit Stetsons Thread... -
