fedora

Looking for anybody willing to part with an open crown fedora with similar proportions to an Akubra Federation or Stetson Stetsonian: 5 1/2 straight open crown, 2 5/8-3 inch brim. Thanks!

Wanted, for sale or trade: used Stetson stetsonian, Stetson Grand Central or Akubra Federation or Akubra Campdraft, 7 1/2- 7 5/8. Figured I'd put some feelers out. Maybe somebody knows someone who has one etc

Hello, I'm a new fedora owner and new to the forum. Sorry I dont have a picture of my new hat right now but, I purchased a custom made Indy hat from Peter Bros. I have been a longtime fan of the Indy movies (sorry to say except the 4th one) and I thought adding a proper fedora to the collection...

Hello again Ladies & Gentlemen. I was wondering if any of the experts here can lend opinions on the best Fedora style (brim width, crown height and crease) for a fellow such as I? The closest hat shop seems to be 2 hours away, (and alas, as I shall visit as soon as time allows), where I...

Im not sure if its a Stetson Borsolino Selentino I was hoping this forum could help me find the hat im looking for.

I have been following this forum for several years and finally decided to join. I enjoy looking at the new and vintage hats and have learned a great deal. I started purchasing hats after my dermatologist recommended I cover my balding pate after a first bout of skin cancer. I have always...

I found this hat and am trying to get more information on it but so far not much luck. The only time I even found this brand was on a hat from the 1930's. Can anybody enlighten me a little more on this hat and its value if any? It is a great looking hat in great shape. I want to make sure it is...

My wife is heading to Ddansk Poland this weekend. I found Sterkowski Fedoras online and wondered if anyone has any experience with them. The prices are great and thought I'd see if she could pick one up.

The gentlemen who is selling the Selention Tonak fur felt fedoras on eBay is preparing to list more of the hats. Although I have never met him, I have seen helping him get the word out. I don't have any skin in this game. The hats are new old stock (NOS) and so far the colors have...

I just ran across a nice guy in Riverside, California who stumbled upon a large horde off NOS SELENTINO Tonak 100% fur felt hats he's selling for $40 plus shipping. These look like what the Burlington Coat Factory sold a few years back. Interestingly, he has a lot of hard to find large sizes. Be...

This seems to work on other sites, so I figure that it deserves a shot here. If you've got a quick hat question and don't see a thread for it, just post it here. Whether the question is about cleaning, anatomy of a hat, brands, etc., this is the place. Here's one to break the ice.

Hi folks Are the techniques for reshaping the brim and crease on a wool/fur Fedora the same as a fur one? I've been researching steaming and bashing on the net, and they all show fur hats being converted. So, I'm wondering if I should use the same methods on my wool/fur crushable? cheers

Here is another great fedora from Bates hats of London I'm selling. Size 61. Paid £245 in 2012 for it, which was over $350. Asking $215 shipped CO US with hat box (not from Bates). Sent from my SM-N910T3 using Tapatalk

Selling my rarely worn Bates Walker in Olive I bought 2013. Size 60. Paid £245 at the time, which was over $350 at the time. Great hat, just never really wear it. Asking $215 shipped CO US with hat box (not from Bates). Sent from my SM-N910T3 using Tapatalk

Grandpa gave me a few hats and he says he thinks this is from around the 50's but not sure. I could find no similar hat made by Richman Brothers. It says capri on the inside and again nothing similar and i've been scooping around a while. Ive been told its really rice but just looking for...

I’m thinking about using Pomade or similar in my hair soon, I’ve seen it mentioned here that some products can damage hats. So I have a few related questions; what products have a potentially adverse effect on a hat? What do these consist of specifically? And which will not harm a hat, if...

I bought this size 7 hat new about 12 years ago, with several others and I only wore it a couple of times. Looks like new, and comes in a Stetson box. $75 or best offer. I live near Chicago - if you would like to try it on! Cheers!

Never worn Resistol "Cross Plains" self-conforming silver hat. Currently shaped for western, but can be reshaped into fedora. Saw a successful example of this sold here. Needs reshaping regardless though. 7 1/8 long oval, 3X beaver. Hat is in superb condition. Marked as sold at the Klamath...

Greetings everyone. I noticed that there is not at time of writing a dedicated review on this hat on this forum so thought I would post one: My Akubra Bogart in Carbon Grey: I've had this hat for about six months and really love it. It has a 64mm brim with bound edge, 38mm ribbon band, and...

Morning Gents I just bought a vintage Knox New York blue fedora from a charity shop. Is anyone an expert in knox hats and can give me more info on it? I'm guessing its old due to the label and size (56). Also says made in Japan under license with the codes KMC & 390. Any help would be awesome...
