    I love the Fed IV!!

    I think the new color and the new Raiders shape is not the full story. The e-mail also says: "We are as passionate for authentic hat design as ever and we are very excited to share what we have been working on, more on that in the months ahead…". This makes me believe a new model is on the way.

    I'm also eager for more information about new developments on the Fed. After the Carbon Grey, I could buy a Moonstone when it became available and I'm very happy with it. Feds are really great hats, we need them in production for years to come.

    Carbon Grey Fed is back in stock, most sizes available. I bought one a few months ago but the crown was so tapered I had to return it. I hope this issue is solved in the new batch.

    Your are very kind, thank you! I enjoyed every second of working in this hat. Can't explain enough how exciting it is to watch the results that slowly begin to change the hat in the way you like it. Even the best hat stores here do not offer the kind of vintage untapered shape the Fed IV has...

    Thank you for your kind words! I’ll consider removing the plastic cap. Any advice on doing it without damaging the liner? I’m really happy with my new hat, my first rabbit. One can really feel the difference against wool felt.

    I love the Fed IV!!

    Hello again! My Fed IV Deluxe arrived just in time, two days before Christmas. It was incredibly stiff, I was surprised. Some members here have talked about this but certainly I didn't expect it to have so much stiffener. I'm not complaining, just surprised. It fits really good, just a little...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    Yes to all, in a certain sense. It's the name of the store, and it's a curious one. Donde golpea el monito is a family hat store that started in 1915 in Santiago. In 1922 they installed a mechanic doll they bought in Paris. The doll has a stick that periodically strikes the glass of the...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    Here in the South Hemisphere warm weather is starting. Today I'm wearing my panama made in Ecuador by request of a famous local hat store in Santiago, "Donde golpea el monito".

    Thank you very much for your advice. I intend to steam it, just the necessary bit to shape it slowly.

    Hello to everyone from Santiago de Chile. I have been reading this forum for quite some time, but finally decided to register. A couple of days ago I received confirmation that the Dark Brown Fed IV deluxe is back in stock. I’m really looking forward to get it, hopefully before Christmas. I...
