I am a lucky man! Occasionally Any thoughts on Vita felt? This is my second. I can't tell if the felt is thinner or just doesn't have as much stiffener. Both of mine change shape easily... almost too easily. Wondered if you noticed the same.
I'm just learning about these Vita Felts.
On the felt character of Vita-Felt, I have handled a number of them and there is a range - from soft and floppy to quite firm (homburg). This might be tied to how the hats have aged and been treated over the years, to the different models and price points, to the development of the proprietary process - most likely to mix of all these factors.
Just received the Stetson Grand Central from Delmonico...When I received the call from Jeff it was on it's way :eusa_clap......The felt has a great hand and shapeable without steam. But to get it the way I wanted and for it to stay, a shot of steam (only) was in order...Well...Here are a few pics. The one thing I must get used to with this sweetie is to keep clean hands and my dark colored horsehair brush close by after each wear!
Outside...
Inside...After steaming and adding one of the few bashes I know...for right now...
