uncreased, just splendid
How are you Gannon Hat owners enjoying the fedoras?
My hat is becoming a real workhorse of a hat. The charcoal beaver felt is proving to be incredibly weather resistant. On occasions when I would break out my Akubra Camp Draft, I have found myself reaching for the Gannon Wanderer. The ribbon has gotten wet and recovered with nary a mark. I have brushed out marks that have gotten on the felt easily. A challenge has been the liner moving around in the hat, especially when I re-crease it. I have put 2 side tape on the edges and 1 at the top of the liner. That is helping me. I suspect the combo of the dimensions of the liner and the artist listening to me wishing for a "high"crown have combined to produce this solved issue. I have used some steam to work the "snapping" action of the front brim. All in all I am dealing enjoying the Gannon Wanderer.
Any reflections from you folks?
Hat at rest during my day.
Best, Eric -
