I apologize for the semi-bad photo but for the time being, my phone is the only "camera" I have.

Here's the B! Wear cap I ordered last week. I think it looks pretty good. Just have to wait for cool enough weather; it's a thick one!

May I ask which "cut" you had asked for?

Thanks Doc.
Does anyone have one of these? Any thoughts on the cut and quality?


Yes, I have three of them. Two are full cuts, and one is the extra full. Great quality, and style. They are made with Pendleton wool. The brim has no stiffener or snap, which I like.

I'm waiting for the weather to cool so I can wear them again.

Actually, Brett of B!wear will do different cuts, you just have to ask him. I have three of his caps, including one short cut cap, which is about half as full as the standard. I like them all very much and he's a great guy to deal with.

Any possibility you could post some pics of the various cuts you have of his? Just curious as to the difference.

I just got two caps from B! Wear. I am very happy with the quality and drape. I had Brett use leather sweatbands. I think the brims are a bit narrow though. Nevertheless, I am very pleased.
Does this mean Fedora Guy at the top of the page will change to a cap too?:eek: lol seriously pics would be great!:D

I've never seen Hat People's site - they look GREAT! I have two B!Wear hats and I like them, but the proportions are a bit weird for my head I think. I'd prefer a longer and wider brim and a much fuller cut. I also wish their website had larger images of their material choices. Also if they can and do have different cut options, I wish it was stated on their site!
I think I might give a Herringbone Cascade Blue Extra Full Cut from Hat People a try next time I'm ready to pick up a new cap.
MK - love to see the photos of your new B!Wear!

BTW - I quite like the cut of the Jonathan Richard/Peterman caps.
