Just received my Stetson Brewster from Sterling. It is somewhat darker in color that I imagined, but still very nice. Fit perfect and will probably be my everyday winter hat. Very soft felt
I wear one every day even as Chief. I usually leave it in the car most of the time and wear to cases, meeting etc. Usually wear white shirt, tie khaki pants and gun. In Texas it is just too hot to wear a jacket most of the time.
Best story I have of it was I was running a multi-agency task force...
I actually had a picture of me in a fedora in the international news.
I only played a very small part, but it was fun.

Another great show that used to croos-over from Law and Order had some who fedoras' Homicide Life on the Street, had a character Frank Pembalton that mostly wore one. Munch from SVU started his character on that show, although I never saw him wear a hat.
I enjoyed my trip to Peters Bros. I bought my first 3 hats from them. They have served me well. Now that I know a little more about new vs vintage, I am a little more selective when buying retail.
Matt is 100% right in the fact that their dress hats (their brand) are stiff. I have a very...
I get mine from http://www.dress-for-success.com/ I have been very happy with them and prices are great. I do suggest that since they are 100% cotton that you allow a little for sleve length and collar shrinkage. I guess I must have about 30 of them so far. One of my detectives and the Chief...
I have two Stetsons that I bought one year apart. One is a 7 3/8 and the other is a 7 1/2. Both fit about the same. It appears that they change a little from year to year. At least that's what the guys at my hat store says.
