what is the function of the back bow? I noticed on my Como that the bow is kinda flimsy and almost looks like it is about to fall off... i didnt really know why it was there...
Hi, I was at my local hat shop and I was told not to place my fur felt hats on a coat rack because it will ruin the shape of the hat. Is this true? The coat rack that i have has hat hooks that are somewhat rounded at the point of contact with the hat, and doesn't put a sharp tension on the...
I got the Tilley Fedora in today... and I like it. It has a nice fit and feels nice on my head. The secret pocket is kinda flimsy, I wouldn't put anything more than some dollar bills in it, and the ear warmers are quite nice. I will have to see how it works in the winter. I will put up some...
Hm... does the como tend to shrink over time of using it? If anything the hat is a bit too big... it doesn't touch my ears but sometimes it can come close. I originally bought it to dance in, but it is way too nice to treat it that way, so now i will just use it when i get dressed up. I...
Hi guys. I received my first Borsalino... a Como that I purchased from BenCraft Hats recently. I had some intial issues with sizing, but hopefully I have come to the correct one for my head. I took some pictures and I was wondering if anyone can comment to tell me if it looks right. I am...
The Tilley Fedora is now out... are any of you guys going to purchase it? I have never dealt with Tilley, but they have a great reputation for backing their product. I am thinking of getting one just because of that... and I would like a hat I can wear every day. What do you all think?

I was also looking at the Anello which is featured on bencraft. It looks like a nice hat... smaller brim and kinda what i am going for even though it doesn't have the tear drop. Anyone have any experience with this particular hat?
Hi guys,
Another new guy question for you all. I recently bought a fedora which i love to death... and it already has a steamed center crease and front pinch. The thing is, the front pinch is a little high on the crown. Am i supposed to be creasing the hat myself to make it look right...
Why is the chatham from fedora store, and the one from bencraft different in terms of the brim? I did see that steven said it was custom ordered... haha, could that be the reason why? I was under the impression that if it is named a certain style it just all comes like that. I am 5 10, and of...
Hi guys... I am thinking of purchasing this hat. Anyone heard anything about it? I am looking for a low profile hat with that prohibition era feel... in grey. Just wondering if anyone has had good/bad experience with it. Thanks.
Hi guys, what had does Michael Jackson use in the video for smooth criminal. I can't really tell materials and such, but from what i can tell it is tear drop with a fairly low crown and long ish brim. If anyone knows i would appreciate it. Thanks...
Hey guys,
I recently mentioned that I got into the hat world secondary to my dancing. I was wondering if anyone else uses their hat for this purpose. It is interesting, because at first I used it just to suppliment my dancing and now i find that I wear my hats all the time now to go to work...
Yeah... i am happy with the hat. I just had it shaped recently at my local hat shop and it has worked for me very nicely. I do have two little stains on it... and i have no idea where they came from. Hopefully i can get them out, but they look like grease stains? Anyhow, if anyone wants to...
Hi guys, What do you all know about this particular hat brand? I purchased a fedora by this company, but i was only able to find scarce information on it. Bencraft Hats and Levine hats are the only places i could find that carry it and i could find nothing else on the company. Do any of you...
Final picture
Hey guys, i tried to give it more "snap". Maybe this looks better.... maybe it is just me but I still find it odd looking. I used this site (http://www.felthats.com/hats_info/style.html) to try to guage things... i think my face is the Prominent Jaw type.... Eh... do you think...
What does it mean to add more "snap"? Also, how do i know if the circumfrance is too much for me? I am still wondering if the circumference is too great for me head... Also, does borsalino have different sub brands of their hats? Like, is Trionfo a certain brand of borsalino hat?
Trionfo
What is the Trionfo label mean? I again am still confused by why it has that label... Also, i think the front shot looks kinda odd still.. though the 3/4 shot is ok... eh.. :)
