Unfortunately the hat does not look so good on my head. It is a bit too large at 7 1/4.

Feraud, It looks great! :eusa_clap
What exactly is VITA-FELT?
The felt feels good and has a nice Cavanagh Edge but the particulars of a Vita-Felt elude me. [huh]

Great looking hats, Feraud and Bart.

Unfortunately I have to wait for Christmas to get this one but here's a sneak peek of my new Adam. Some quick snaps.

5 1/2" open crown, 2 7/8" brim

It's true color:

Some damage and dryness to the back of the sweatband. I applied a little bit of leather lotion to it.

Next time I see it will be December 25.

Not a superduper googolfino as you can see, but what Art called "just a good hat." That's plenty good enough for me. My philosophy at this point in my hat wearing and financial life is have a good solid Montecristi body blocked very well.

Thank you, GWD. this one is one of the best hat investments I've made. And I've been investing quite a bit lately.

I like the one you posted above too. It's different than anything I've seen before, and I love the ribbon colors.

Aren't those Adams light on the head? You hardly feel em up there. My Adam is now my summer hat of choice.

I'm a little hesitant to say too much, Bart lol lol lol. As you know more bidders means increased demand, which means higher prices:D :D, but these are really fantastic hats. They are very light and so comfortable! Mine has been on my head since it arrived this afternoon. We all owe johnnyphi at least a drink if not a drink and dinner for offering these hats to us.

New Art Fawcett Fedora

Art built me this Stratoliner clone. It is Natural colored light weight felt with no liner. I have read what others have said about Art's hats but was not ready for what I received. It is very light, soft, supple, and fits perfectly.

It was 102 outside the day I got it but I had to wear it out. I won't be wearing any other my other hats now. I feel absolutely spoiled rotten wearing this thing. Mr. Fawcett's hats are a treat.

Sorry for the bad photography.

That's a great looking hat (I really like the color). And you are right - once you get a hat from Art Fawcett, you really are spoiled. No other hats can compare.

Very nice. :eusa_clap
In addition to making great hats, Art is such a friendly guy that it's a pleasure to order from him.
