I don't have a problem. I don't know why my friends, coworkers and family members are all saying horrible things about me and a few hats.... what? this felt here? what's wrong with stroking an inanimate piece of felt??? No, I'm not on ebay! Now what's wrong with Etsy!!!???
Here's a few pics of the hat after cleaning. Much cleaner and the crushed sides on the felt are gone. I've not done anything else since except wear it around the house as my Jed Clampett/Beverly Hillbillies hat, LOL.

For custom hats, check out the thread for Esther Weiss Millinery the other hatters that have threads here.

Thanks, brother. It's mostly the color of the felt that appeals to me. Granite is so much more than a shade of grey. It's got browns and greys running all through it.
Got it. I had to make a choice between a new, fancy liner from Bob and this one. I went with the old one Bob had in his inventory.I think Bob did a bang up job. I'll see about a custom next year. I can't wait to see the one you guys worked out together.
Bob said that liner had been replaced at some point and was way too small for my hat. That's what caused the creases in the front crown. When I wore it low, it would put a solid crease horizontally across the front of the hat.
I passed on a $130 KILLER brown leather jacket at the New To You thrift store yesterday. It broke my heart to walk away, but I'm saving $$$ for our next trip to Ecuador. This black leather jacket was $24.99, got 5% off for buying goods over $25 and there was nearly $4 in change in the pocket...
