Apologies if this has been covered elsewhere but I would like to know something about a particular style of hat and there is no better place to turn than the Fedora Lounge! I will be getting my first proper fur felt fedora in about a month or so as my parents are taking me into Boston to a clothign shop called Vintage Revenge. Its all about selling vintage clothing and I intend to savor the trip as much as possible! I have been on their website and they have entire shelves of fedora and flatcaps. I'am going to be looking for one and so I wondered if you gentlemen might be able to tell me what i might look for in a film noir styled fedora. I love noir and I want my first fedora to be something similar to those movies I enjoy so much. It doesn't need to be a Bogart clone or a Le Samourai replica by any means but something noirish that would go well with my khaki trench coat would be nice. So....what do you suggest I keep my eyes peeled for? Akubras, Stetsons, Borsalinos? Color? Brim size suggestions? Anything at all is appreciated and if you guys are interested in the store they do have a website you can visit. Any help is appreciated!
