Yeah. When I first started considering adding hats to my style, I already knew I'd be looking for vintage, vintage "style" at least. I got SO frustrated walking into every store in the mall and around town looking for REAL fedoras and only ever finding those cheap 1 inch brim "fedoras" where the back is permanently stitched up and the front is down. Man that was annoying. I just see those things as mock style. You can't customize them at all, and they don't fit everyones face. Not everyone these days understands that there are unique options for each face that compliment or don't compliment the natural features. They're just being put out for growing "modern chic" crowd, which seems to be branching off of the "emo" crowd. Just another example of fleeting fashion i guess... :eusa_doh:

Quite right, young man;

welcome

the hat looks great on you . As dose the rest of your ensemble. I wouldn't change the hat in any way. Ive been hovering on the brink of pulling the trigger on a Fed IV your post has pushed me hover the edge. Damn that lid looks good.
