My first vintage fedora!...and I put it in the wrong forum

[Hawkhat]

Had to share some pics of an antique store find...$54 for a Dobbs 15 in very good condition. Now I'm starting to understand the fuss over vintage felt...this hat is very lightweight...thin felt, but smooth and seems very dense. Still need to stretch it slightly. The pics of me are the actual color with normal indoor light.

I would appreciate feedback on how this looks with my "short, full" face. My preference is only positive, glowing feedback ...just kidding, I welcome honest input.

Its great. Is it for sale? (wink wink)

I know, I know, you placed it in the wrong forum.

I think it looks very good and that you should wear it high on your forehead as in the first picture.

thank you gentlemen...upon further review...the white wall with the white shirt really emphasizes my already pasty complexion ...oh well, first stab at pics
