    Post New Hats Here!

    IC, I believe that Ron at Hats Direct e-mailed me that the Fed Deluxe is available in Tawny Fawn and that he still has a good inventory left of that hat. The new Fed Deluxe IV is available in dark brown and heritage fawn for now but there will be a grey and, I think, a black Fed Deluxe IV...

    Post New Hats Here!

    This new hat arrived at my door on Monday. I've been waiting to post some pictures of it until the coast is clear. Is it clear yet? The hat is a Fed Deluxe IV in heritage fawn and my first open crown hat. I thought the color would be lighter than it is, but I like it anyway. I would...

    Great looking hat, BrandX. I like that bound brim and the ribbon treatment. The teardrop crown is becoming my favorite.

    Nobody Has Posted Their Fed IV Yet?

    Fatwoul, thanks for the pics. I'm expecting mine late this week or early next week. I'd be interested in seeing how you crease it too. This will be my first open crown hat. IC, I'd like to see your pictures too. Will you post them here or PM them to me too? Pils, I'll get some pics up ASAP...

    Nobody Has Posted Their Fed IV Yet?

    I have a Fed IV on order and it has been shipped. I bought the heritage fawn color. I had been looking at a banjo paterson in that color, but I decided against the downturned all around brim. I'll let you see the Fed IV when it arrives. Bob

    Art Fawcett VS Hall of Fame

    Another nice one, univibe. Hopefully, there's one of Mr. Fawcett;s hats for me in the not too distant future. I'm buying a few things to test the water before I contact him so I'll have a better idea of what I want.

    HELP! Where do I get a good straw hat?

    I can recommend Panama Bob as do many others. I just received my first hat from him two days ago. He is very easy to work with, and his Montecristis feel more like cloth than straw. Bob

    GWD, that's a nice stash you have there. I really like the gray and the light brown whippets with the bound brims. I like bound brims. Here's something that came in the mail to my house today. I've been waiting for this one for a long time, but it was my fault. I ordered a hat too small and...

    Post New Hats Here!

    For Mr. J. T. Marcus, per your request Mr. Marcus, about two weeks ago I posted pictures of my new Akubra Stylemaster. I was wearing a shirt and tie that you complimented, and you requested to see the jacket I would wear with that shirt, tie and hat. The other day my wife and I celebrated our...

    My second work of Art - The Brooklyn

    Another fine one MrFusion. Great color and ribbon combination. I love the side profile. It's very cool.

    Felt hat basics

    Question about steaming I have been looking at an Akubra Banjo Paterson. I like the lighter brown or tan color and the brim width and crown shape, but I learned today the the brim is not a snap brim. I am told that the back brim can be steamed to the shape I want (which is turned up), but I've...

    There you go, MSL. The pics are here now. I gave up the Microsoft/Bill Gates way of life six or seven months ago and was led astray by Steve Jobs....there is no such thing as a right click on a mac, so you have to figure out the mac way of doing things. Usually when I finally get it I give...

    Post New Hats Here!

    Here we go, MSL. Hopefully these will show you what you want to see. The hat is an Akubra Stylemaster in moonstone gray that I ordered with a black band. It was inspired by another AS I saw here on the lounge owned by Benny Holiday whose hat is mid gray with a black band. There are also...

    The images were accessible this time. That Akubra looks great on you Bob. ;) It also looks like the fit is fine. Here are the pics: Thank you, Stoney for taking another look and for pulling the pics over here from photobucket for me. I had in mind doing that but wasn't...

    New Akubra Stylemaster This is my first attempt at taking my own pictures and at posting them here, so hopefully it works. This is me and my new Stylemaster. I am interested in opinions from anyone kind enough to comment about the fit and style of this hat for me. This is the first sized hat...

    Free Panama?

    I looked over Casey's websight and entered his contest too, but I haven't won anything yet. The hat is a Cuenca I would imagine, but I'd take it for $16.95. If nothing else I'd use it for a beater. If I'm buying a Panama though, I'm buying it from Bob. By the way, I got my new Stylemaster in...
