On their etsy webpage, how do you let them know what colo you want?
I’m not sure how to select color on his pre-designed hats. I just send him a message from any of this hat links (usually from his listing of the type of hat body I wanted him to use e.g. Antelope) and told him what I wanted:
Felt color
Felt type (dress weight, suede, velour, etc.)
Finish (extra fine pouncing: N/A on velour)
Crown height (6 to 6.5” for me)
Crown shape (#52: minimal taper block)
Brim width
Brim treatment (bound, narrow binding etc.)
Binding color
Crown ribbon width and color
Leather sweatband color
Size (62 long oval for me)
Crown: (open crown for me)
Type of bow
Amount of stiffness (very soft, medium body, stiff brim with soft crown, etc.).
Etc.
I often include a photo of a similar hat.
Make sure you tell him you’re from The Fedora Lounge.
If you are buying a pre-designed hat, there is a place for you to add a note to the seller and you could include the color there; otherwise, I think his pre-designed hats come in the color shown.
Are you thinking of a fedora or another homburg?
