Hey fedora fans, I got a Cappelleria Melegari Italian fedora size 58, I thought it would fit smaller like my Italian Borsalino Alessandria that run snug so I sized up considering their both Italian hats, Borsalino size 58 was a good fit, size 57 was unbearably tight. The Cappelleria Melegari is a beautiful hat that is true to size and a light weight that’s comfortable for such a wide brim tall crowned hat. The size 58 is a tad to big so maybe in time wearing it in the rain will make shrink like my Akubra. I’m going to try the steaming and then leave it on a lampshade for 5-10 minutes and wear it to shrink it. It took two months to arrive to the US but worth the wait.

Nice hats. Mirror shots, or is your left your shooting eye?
