Bob, I'm not as "seriously" into this, for lack of a better word, hobby, as most everyone else here. I have purchased one of Art Fawcett's works of art, also one of Mike's beauties from Northwest. Combine these with my CM and compare the craftsmanship, I believe you would have a nearly impossible time finding ANY type of quality difference issues. As far as taper, mine runs pretty much straight as an arrow, fits perfectly, brim runs exactly 2 1/8" , I mean I could go on and on.........BUY with confidence. They are extremely accessible for inquiries, extremely FAST (21 days) with turn around, just a complete pleasure to work with........AND you cannot beat their pricing. TRUST me, you will NOT be disappointed.

I hate to keep clogging the threads with "this" hat, for Karlos and Joey C just to show you the difference if you can see it, I really cannot. Top one is the VS "LASTMAN" the View attachment 32989 , bottom one is the Cappelleria "LASTMAN" View attachment 32990
Hi wcbrown. I am new to this forum. Great Last Man Standing hat. Wanted to congratulate you on this hat. I am considering ordering one from Capelleria. Wanted to ask you how has this Last Man hat from them held up since you bought it? Also, I know somewhere you stated the dimensions of the hat, etc. I am seeing Cappelleria saying in their Ebay ad that the brim is 2 inches. I believe in one of your posts (which, sadly, I cannot find right now), you mentioned the brim was longer. I have a lovely Biltmore Fedora with a 2.5 inch brim that looks great. I would hesitate to go with a shorter brim (don't like stingy brims, well at least not for me wearing them). You look great in that hat by the way. God Bless.

WCBrown has not been on the forum for a good many years so doubtful you will get a response although he might still read but not post.
