    Panama hat liner

    I actually pulled one out of a dobbs this summer. No reason you can't put one in.

    Fed and Fed Deluxe not available now???

    I have actually seen the new Federation IV in person, standard version in brown. The change in brim dimensions AND crown height maintained the right proportions to keep the overall "look" the same. The new block shape (a very old block found in storage) looks even more "vintage" than before...

    Classic Style #5

    Loved that. :eusa_clap I was left slightly wanting in the picture arena, though. I want to know what all these different types look like... and where can I get some!

    Let's see... it's a 2 3/4" brim with a wide binding, like the classic whippet. Unbashed, I think the crown is about 5 1/2". With bash, it's 4 3/4" in front and slopes to 3 7/8" in the back. Oh, and that fantastic ribbon is just a hair under 2". For those wondering about the bash, Art put...

    rrog; My current avatar is a vintage Adam Executive, which I recently won from Johnnyphi's auctiuons. Check out this thread for more pics, and more proud winners! http://www.thefedoralounge.com/showthread.php?t=31275&page=5 Slim Portly; I have to say, I'm not to sure what a fob really is...

    Ah-ha! Something else I lost in the hard-drive transfer. If the sun ever creeps out again, I'll take some new ones.

    Need a Johnnyphi auction fix!

    I also have only one, and I am part of the 7 1/2 crowd. This is the best chance many of us larger headed guys have ever had for vintage, let alone NOS! I would be quite happy with one more. Gray, preferably. I'm not greedy. :D

    Hat Boxes

    They have those? It's just not a solution. There are so few actual hat stores left, and the only two I've known only have the boxes that come with a hat. Package deal.

    No snap brim, please

    As I understand it, the brim could be changed during a reblock (called reflanging), but it can also be done by hand in steps. I don't know if you'd want to try that. Otherwise, turned down brims shouldn't be that hard to find on a modern hat. Stetson and Miller carry numerous such hats...

    Problem with akubra fed arrival...

    Just look at the felt to be sure there are no rips or cracks. If not, the hat should be fine. This is a common problem with hats received by mail or UPS. Imagine getting a box like that with a $250 hat inside... that you waited 10 months for! :eek:

    Sometimes it's good to be predictable! Thanks for the compliments (from both of us to all of you).

    Well, I'm not much of a show off, but when real craftsmen put there best effort into things, you have to make some noise. (Plus, I don't get to do this very often.) I don't know that I can really narrow down what it is I'm showing off here, because I finally got to wear my two newest wardrobe...

    Miller Hats

    Miller Hats represented a bulk of my original collection. I can confirm that the Miller brand hats are Biltmores, and as far as production hats go, they are nice. They lack the toughness of an Akubra, but they look dressier, and will hold up just fine as a dress hat. If you want something...

    Johnnyphi Hat Club

    I just got my Adam Executive, and there's not enough light for pictures. I'll have to remedy that soon. All I can say is... I hope there are a few more left in my size! :D By the by, mine reported a couple of moth nibbles in the auction. I can't even find them! Thank you Johnny!

    Why does this look wrong to me? (Cary Grant Picture)

    What I see is a jacket that appears to have been tailored for somebody else, possibly the same or close off-the-rack size. But when something is tailor made, the wrong differences can make clothing do strange things. Maybe he was simply forced to wear somebody else's jacket in a pinch?
