Great hat, great look and great shoes! I have an identical pair of Allen Edmonds that I bought over 20 years ago. I've been wearing them 3 or 4 times a week ever since, and they're still in great shape-

Well I've ordered a silverbelly campdraft, and I know this has been talked about, but should I order a 61, or 62? I sit right at a comfortable 61, or slightly snug 60.5. Everyone says they run large, so if a 61 is really 61 1/4 or so the shrink might be perfect? Or will a 61 shrink down to 60? I just think the 62 will really be floating around my head. gtdean gave me advice (thanks again), just looking for extra practical experience with campdraft size. I think I would rather stretch it once in awhile rather than pad it up to make it fit. Hatsdirect tell me they might find a "small" 62 for me.
Thanks in advance for the advice
I wish I'd taken a photo before boxing it up after selling it.
Here is my most recent VS Custom that is similar in dimensions to a CD, 5 3/4" open crown, 2 7/8" brim =
Here is my late 1980s modern Stetson Open Road in a Gus crease as well =
I thought Alden boots where expensive until I saw the price of Allen Edmond shoes, I'll keep my eyes peeled for a used pair on the bay, these are very classy shoes.
Well, I emailed Jenny that I thought the 61 would be best, as that is the exact size I am, and since they run large this should be perfect when it shrinks. She actually measured them for me and said the 61s she had were true to size, but she had a 62 that was measuring 61.5, so I got that one. Hopefully that will shrink down to my perfect 61. Didnt mean to second guess all the great advice here, but since she gave me actual measurements, I was afraid to get a 61 that she said was right at 61! Jenny couldnt have been more helpful.
Anyway, I'll let you know how it all shakes out.
P.S. Lookin great Terry, so your father in law is Alan Alda?!
Hmmm cant seem to get instagram links working:-(
Neither of your links are referencing a picture file. They both end with a "/" which is a folder designation. In most cases, they should end with a file name & extension like ".../picture.jpg"
Thanks for that so, how do you like it!?
