    New Federation - Help

    I ordered my moonstone Fed Deluxe IV the same size as every other hat I order and it fits. What I'm finding is that I've become spoiled by the VS custom I received a short time ago. That hat makes all the others feel...not quite right.

    Art Fawcett VS Hall of Fame

    Another amazing work of Art. Congratulations, Tom and Art. I love the colors and the ribbon is wonderful with it. That midnight blue is one of the colors on my Art wishlist.

    Optimo visit

    You must be a great dad, Neil. I'd wait for the kids to go to sleep then wear that puppy then box it up again. :eek: lol

    Resistol 5X Beaver Size 7 1/4

    French, that hat would work very well with many colors from blue to gray to khaki to brown to green. That's a fine looking fedora. If you're interested, may I suggest you grab it. I'd take it in a heartbeat, but I am quite hat challenged at the moment.

    That's a great sweatshirt, Gene, and I don't mean to burst your bubble, but that club ain't so elite. I've been there many times. Surprised I haven't run into you and IC there. lol :D

    Nice Stylemaster, Ken. I like that color. And the Cuenca is perfect for a day of boating.

    Happy Birthday, TopG. Hatsdirect told me the problem seems to be with US customs. Do you suppose they're swamped with Australian hats? Today, I wore my new Fed Deluxe for a while, and I wore my Campdraft. There is just no beating those Campdrafts.

    Cool find, Steve. Are you going to scratch out dick's name and write yours in?

    Highest price paid, lowest price paid for your fedora.

    Well said, Tom. I absolutely agree. It may be silly, but when I opened my first work of Art, my hands were shaking. ;)

    Akubra Overload

    I fixed the pinch after I saw the picture I uploaded, and I may change this one to a diamond. I have a diamond pinched silverbelly coming from the major though before too much longer, I hope. Last I heard from him he said he was sending me both of the hats he made me and one I sent him to repair...

    Akubra Overload

    The mailman brought this today. I guess it's been sitting at the post office for four or five days waiting for me to get home. It's the moonstone Fed Deluxe IV I ordered pretty close to three weeks ago. I had to give it a center dent pinch. These hats just beg for that bash, IMO.

    No, unfortunately we're back at home. I ordered the Banjo before I left. What can I say? [huh]

    Akubra Overload

    Bill and jecoe, I went ahead and ordered a Banjo in heritage fawn from Sam Menche at Everything Australian. Normally, this one is one of what seems to be the few hats they stock, but he e-mailed me to say he just sold his last 58 and would have more in 4 weeks. I left the order in with him and...

    Highest price paid, lowest price paid for your fedora.

    When I hear of Optimo's hats starting at $550, I realize the VS custom Art sent me was really quite a bargain at about $330 shipped. I received for that a hat that looks great and fits far better than any other hat I own. The real price of Art's hats is the wait...much more difficult than paying...
