Fedoras vs. Cars

[Frunobulax]

Here's a question: Am I correct in assuming all crushable wool fedoras are LiteFelt?

I'm pretty sure LiteFelt is proprietary to the Baily hat company.

I suppose it's possible I'll outgrow the problem, but I'm skeptical. Probably have to stretch my neck another 6 inches or so to clear the seat.

Meanwhile, does anybody know of a crushable fur felt? Or perhaps a LiteFelt crushable that won't stain in a sprinkle?

Have you looked at anything in the Akubra line of hats? I’ve had my Akubra’s in downpours, no issues at all after I allowed them to dry naturally. Great price point as well.

An Akubra would probably solve the water issue, but they don't seem to have anything crushable. And if it's not crushable, I'm back to the problem of wrecking the brim against the head restraint.

Or did I overlook something?

Driving a convertible, I would be more concerned about the wind, but, I know just the car for you. It will give you fun, kudos and a great place to show off your fedora hat!

But if you think you are just little over the convertible age, not to worry, MG have thought about that and produced a sedan version. Your hat definitely won't blow away in that!

That sedan, I can personally vouch for that car:

Two-tone spectator shoes with a two-tone car. How cool is that? Excellent look!
