I'm thinking of getting a new hat to replace rabbit fur felt I bought from a non experience hatter in my home town (it was a low price tag of 130$ anyway). Thinking of switching it up and I am usually partial to the pinch but thinking of a modified telescope crown with a bit of a an angle so...- JessieJames

Derby, Western, Fedora...a Venerable Legend, THE Stetson 3X...BEFORE 1970!!!!
I don't have photos of me with the hat (I keep forgetting when I have it on) but I got a beautiful mid grey OR Stetson 3X from the 50s from Bowen and it's so so soft and beautiful I love it!! I was surprised because my first hat here was the Stetson 7x OR silverbelly (I started my hat collecting...- JessieJames

Got my swatches from Michael. I think I may go with the silvermist to change up my collection, it's that or the silverbelly (his silverbelly is a lot more cool toned)- JessieJames

How to travel with hats
I don't tend to bike in the rain and avoid puddles. I am a super occasional short distance under 20 minute bike ride in only good condition kind of city cyclist.- JessieJames

How to travel with hats
I got this idea I think off another fedora lounge member when I was digging through forum posts. This is for short term transport like when you're out and about or in my case when I'm biking around. It works very well. Took an old lanyard from an event pass from work and looped it around the...- JessieJames

how did you do that? I have a few pins with the regular backing I'd love to attach to my hats but haven't figured out how. I figured I could somehow cut the pins with sharp pliers with the shears, and then perhaps buy something like this- JessieJames

Michael sent me some samples so I'll be able to choose and start the process, although if the color of the felt varies (which is normal since it is natural materials) then chances are that the colors I'm deciding on may vary anyway and the colour name isn't as important as in real life which I...- JessieJames

Do coat rack hat hooks ruin hats?
Reviving an old thread. So I have some hats on hooks like these And I have 4 of these hooks that have been sitting in boxes for 4 years, that I was thinking of using for my hats. I'd use the 3 biggest ones, which are 2 x 1" diamter, 1 x 0.75" diameter, the last one which is tiny 0.5"...- JessieJames

What is it that you guys are doing with the liner? I see it soaked in something in a previous post, is it to clean it?- JessieJames

oh good to know for the granite. I can't remember if it was Art or another hatter that people were saying it takes a long time to get their order? On another note, where does Art get his felt from? I'm asking because I'm in Canada and I think if everything is manufactured in the States...- JessieJames

I may go with the granite actually, it seems to be a very light grey. I'm just stuck on that lighter sand beige colour because I saw it like that initially and got stuck on that - and the style is a bit more western than dress so beige/sand works. However, I would love to diversify my collection...- JessieJames

oh that is beautiful! I thought Art wasn't taking new orders though? I definitely was looking for either a super light beige/sand or a very light grey- JessieJames

Tatton Baird Hatters
oh lucky! He seems like a really great guy and an amazing craftsman, unfortunately he hasn't been too responsive to my emails. I messaged Gannon, Honrskov, Tatton, to obtain more information and start the process. Only Gannon has been responsive so I shall go with him. Can't wait to see the hat!- JessieJames

What's winchester? From what I could tell off the swatches, Gannon's silverbelly was a lighter beige and more grey tones in it (a more cool silverbelly) but not quite as cool coloured as the silver mist. I really don't want to get another beige ish hat and want a light grey but.. I find the...- JessieJames
