    What a hat from Aaron's...

    A question... Aaron wrote... Although these are made by Bailey it's not one of their models. These hats were made specifically for us. I do have to give Bailey credit though. When I went to them with this idea they were really excited about it and didn't think twice about taking on this...

    What a hat from Aaron's...

    SOFT.... Shoeshineboy, It reminds me of my vintage 1930's Borsalino you saw when you were here. I bashed it in seconds without any steam and it is holding the bash just fine. The felt has that buttery feel. The finish is as smooth as a baby's butt. Just the right amount of stiffner...

    What a hat from Aaron's...

    I just got this in from Aaron's. The fedora is custom made to Aaron's specs. The felt is 50% beaver and 50% rabbitt. The hat comes in open crown so you can bash/crease it yourself. The ribbon is 1 1/2 inches and I really like the bow... Very old school... The crown is 5 1/2 inches...

    Beaver Brand Hats

    Akubra or Beaver Brands hats... I would buy Akubra... I have a friend that is a hatter and he has reblocked both brands and he said the Akubra is a much better felted hat... I do believe the Akubra is a much better priced hat also. Akubra uses wild hare in their felts... :D
