    Short brim vs. wide brim fedora

    I have one really nice Knox with a cav edge that has 1-7/8 brim. All my others are 2 -1/4 or larger. I prefier 2.5 to 3. Although the Knox is a great hat, I do not like how I look in short brims. I am 6'3" and rather slim. A stingy makes me look like a pencil with the lid the eraser on top! F_M
