Thanks . Yes struck out with (2-3) other shoe repair guys here in Milwaukee before finding this guy by chance. He's young but experienced and has all the tools needed to do the work plus he's willing to listen to my ideas and that's a big plus.

Envious to see some of you wearing straws already.
This is a new to me vintage Champ western 6x in light grey. Brim is 3 1/4.
The path Iam on here is where I ran into a large Wolf not long ago .

A good cobbler is worth their weight in gold.
I finally found a good guy in Milwaukee, Boot Corral, that actually knows how to resole welted boots how I want them. I picked up these wolverine 1000 mile boots on eBay recently for 75. And had them resoled for 100.

Here's a Vintage Stetson thin ribbon that had staining issues so I converted it to a Whippet style fedora . Love this color combo a lot . I didn't know the felt was this color until after I cleaned it and was pleasantly surprised.

Also just added new ribbons and the binding helps with shape of brim .

Scooterz sizing up or down several sizes for myself involves washing the felt thoroughly in water and reblocking appropriately. Yes sweatbands are removed for this most definitely .
The results are dependent upon the quality of felt obviously the better the felt the better the results.

I've been wanting for a wide brim Stetson and found this 7 1/8 LO so I sized up to fit 7 1/2 and managed to keep a full 3 1/4 brim while still maintaining a respectable 5 3/4 op crown ht. God I love these old Stetsons . Felt is smooth and dense.
Kept it simple with a dbl ply ribbon as the...

Nice looking hat scooterz.
Here's a simple homburg conversion I just finished for a lounger. It's a older Schoble in a ivory colored felt. Original binding and one I added are pretty close to same color.

Here's a Borsalino that was mis advertised as a 3/8 hat but turned out to be a 3/4 . I liked the hat but wanted to down size it and still maintain the proportions and this is what I came up with. Op crown is 5 3/4 brim is at about 2 5/8. Now fits 59 cm. Lovely blue grey colored felt. Not sure of...
