Indeed, my "starter hat" was a 'crushable' lite felt wool stingy. It served its purpose, but started to look a less presentable as time went on. If money is no object, Optimo can make you a rollable white fur felt in their Optimo 1000 felt. For a wool felt option that's crushable, I don't... -
Open Crown Stetsons: A Call (Plea) to Retailers!!
I'll be happy to wait for 2014 if: the felt is thinner than what Stetson is putting out now; not powder dyed; not too stiff; and has decent resiliency to weather. -

Is there a reason you want wool felt over fur felt? -

Black Sheep Hat Works
Bob is still out on his trek, but the BSHW Facebook page announced that pre-orders through June 20th receive 20% off. A great discount for a great hatter. Now...I need to find some money, excuse me. ;) -

Open Crown Stetsons: A Call (Plea) to Retailers!!
The thing is, for the crowd here, it's not enough that Hatco just makes an open crown hat. We all know that they can do it. They made the Nostalgia (and yes, by Hatco's own admission it was a poor seller - thats not idle lounger speculation, but a verified fact). Let's be frank, most of us... -
Open Crown Stetsons: A Call (Plea) to Retailers!!
I would have to be seriously convinced about the quality of this lid before I stated any potential interest in ordering. -

Straw hat recommendation?
If money is no object, the finest modern made hats are coming out of Optimo in Chicago. They have the natural wheat straw Milans. -

Open Crown Stetsons: A Call (Plea) to Retailers!!
Right, but Major Moore attempted to get that exact thing done with the Stratoliner. We had folks here who were ready to buy. See this thread for the whole affair: http://www.thefedoralounge.com/showthread.php?55919-Fedorafest-III-Stratoliner-from-Stetson& -
Open Crown Stetsons: A Call (Plea) to Retailers!!
Retailers probably don't express any interest because the Nostalgia sold so poorly. -
Less pricey Banjo Paterson-Indiana Jones-Akubra hat alternatives?
If you've been wearing crushable wool felt hats, you really should make the upgrade to a good fur felt. An Akubra is a tough hat, which can be reblocked down the line to give it new life. As long as the felt holds up, the other parts of the hat (ribbon/band, sweatband) can be replaced... -

WTB Modern Stetson PANAMA Open Road or Brewster in SZ 7
If you can't find a deal on a lightly used one, I know there was a size 7 Panama Open Road floating around on eBay a few weeks ago, and Meyer the Hatter still shows them on their webpage. I was in Hatguys in Oakland a few weeks ago and they still had Brewsters in stock.- jlee562
