Nice, Scion. I had a moonstone Stylemaster that I liked a lot, but I bought it too big so I sold it. They are a nice looking fedora.

Welcome Fedora Dave

I'm still new here myself Fedora Dave, but welcome. I think you'll find the Fedora Lounge a place of vast knowledge, exquisite taste, and a level of civility not often found in the twenty-first century.

Enjoy.

Here is my new Akubra Stylemaster in Steel Gray. It looks darker than it is in the dark room, but I like it.

Thanks for the kind words Bob, IC, Troy, and Bingles! I'd definitely recommend this hat for others, and I know many folks around here who have Stylemasters speak highly of them as well.

Here are, I hope, a couple of pics of my Stetson Centerdent Panama from Delmonico Hatters. Advertised as made in Ecuador and finished in US. Very nice hat for $112.50 postpaid, and it fits well. Actually, since the pics, I dampened the brim a bit and shaped it in a much smoother fedora shape. Looks nice.
As some may have noticed, I've been griping about Panama Hats Direct on a couple of other threads. After all my complaints to the company, I got an email this morning implying that I must be enjoying my way oversize hat now and getting lots of compliments and they requested a testimonial. I don't think they read emails at all. Maybe nobody's home down there, it's all done by robot computers. If I wore it down over my ears I might not compliments, but I'd probably get comments. :rage:

Wow, Garrett, that's nice. I have a dark brown one and it's among my top favorite fedoras. You did great on the price, no doubt due to the small size. Hope it fits!

Can you post a picture of your dark brown whippet, I'm curious to see how you bashed it?

Sure thing, pal.

It came open crowned and as new. :D

I simply put a a C-crown bash into it - not too perfect. I did push the sides out a touch, sort of diamondish but a very loose interpretation. I guess for those who like more precise creases than I usually do, a diamond would really work well on the proportions of a Whippet.

Sorry, I don't have top shots but would take some if you really need.
