Hey, look at that. You still ended up with one. Good karma for good peeps!
A light colored felt for the tropics?Thanks, Doug. The seller couldn’t find a size, but she measured its circumference and it’s supposed to be my size. Holding my breath. Worst case I’ll pass it on to another Lounger.

just received fed1v and found the brim to be wider than my other two feds!Just ordered another Fed 1v from the Hattery. this one in moonstone.I await being stung by the British customs,and the added service charge from Royal mail!,but hey ho, owning another Fed is worth it!
Ugh, I wish the Hattery would have made that mistake with my black Fed IV. After wearing Camp Drafts and Bushmen the Fed IV's brim seems rather bashful to me - especially from a head-on view where the minimum of the dimensional brim really shows.just received fed1v and found the brim to be wider than my other two feds!
here's spec from the hattery
Brim: 70mm x 63mm (Side), Cut edge- (my other 2 feds are this size. )
the hat i received is 78mm x 70mm.
I await a reply from the hattery, but it's too expensive to exchange, as i got stung by import duties,
i'll end up trimming it down to spec.
I would wear it a while as is.....you MAY regret trimming it down the road. For my camp...I would say you won the brim width lottery! There are times when the wider brim would be nice.....just received fed1v and found the brim to be wider than my other two feds!

i'm going to trim it down, I bought it BECAUSE of its brim width, as my other two fed's look fine on me,and a wider (side) brim doesn't.I would wear it a while as is.....you MAY regret trimming it down the road.

Agreed!!Yeah, you guys... .276" is expansive!
Just had a reply from Trudi & Naomi @ The Hattery. apologizing and they are sending me a replacement hat with correct brim dimension!i'm going to trim it down, I bought it BECAUSE of its brim width, as my other two fed's look fine on me,and a wider (side) brim doesn't.
Most of the time I think my Fed IVs are just about perfect as they are, but sometimes I wish the brims had an extra 1/4" in width (specifically on the sides). If I received a hat from Hats Direct/The Hattery like the one you received I'd probably count my blessings and keep my mouth shut.just received fed1v and found the brim to be wider than my other two feds!

each to their own. I don't like wide brims and the extra brim width on the fed they sent me, in my opinion spoilt it's lookMost of the time I think my Fed IVs are just about perfect as they are, but sometimes I wish the brims had an extra 1/4" in width (specifically on the sides).

How might that be? Sorry for the delay, I’ve been away.I might just have you covered.
