Douglas, Bob C and Shane , Nice hats all of you.

indycop,

Lexol leather cleaner will probably work for you. Be careful with it and test on a small area first. Although I generally do not have any problems with it, I did have it ruin one sweatband on a British hat.

One of the hat's I threw together today, and I welcome your opinions.

..I would like to start off by thanking the Fedora Lounge and all of the Members within for the respect clearly given to the art of the hat and the Hatters.

Here's a Fur Felt Custom Hand Made fedora I made today for a customer & good friend of mine. Thanks.

alphy27, Welcome to the Lounge. It's obvious you're enjoying that good looking hat.

There are two kinds of hat wearers: those who say it never gets too hot for felt, and those who say it SOMETIMES does. :D


I guess I'm the exception. I have pretty much packed-up the felt hats for the summer (I know it's spring). I have already had days when my head is getting too hot in a felt hat. I am concerned about staining it. Unfortunately, I don't have a Panama to wear - yet. PB has been helping me through that process. ;)

I've got a feeling this is going to get expensive.....

Well, Shane, you can't take it with you when you leave...might as well enjoy it while you're here.

Welcome to the Lounge, Gunner. I'm sure the rest of the "lid literati" around here welcome you as well.

And I'll also add this thread is one I hit daily to see all the great new hats Loungers have acquired.

This one seems to be a bit older. It has the same details as my others plus the venting. It is a bit softer but that could be from use and age. The brim is 2-5/8" which is wider than the others. The crown as bashed is only 3-1/2" and seems to be set for many years so I won't change it. What impresses me about the Playboy and in general most of the Royal line is how increadably comfortable they are. No matter what style they all sit on the head well and form a nice seal without binding. The brims tend to be softer so wind has no affect.
I have many hats that fit well and look good but other than the two "The Royal Stetson" the Royal line of hats is my favorite and most user friendly.

One more gratuitous photo.

^Great hat and look, as always, Douglas. I've been wearing my Artlight brim up quite a bit lately as your Playboy is in your second 'live' shot. I really like how it looks.

Wow, RB! I like that hat! Is that a Fed or a Fed Deluxe? I have a moonstone gray Stylemaster with a black ribbon that I like very well, but that Fed is really nice, man! I also have a Fed Deluxe IV in heritage fawn, but I may have to get a moonstone Fed too. Very nice!

Alan, my Artlight also looks good with the brim upturned. The felt lends itself well for that style and shaping.

Let us see a photo please.

Do all these greens go together?

This is my Stetson Skyhawk I was planning on wearing this hat with my club jacket on our next outing. I don't know if it looks right. Can you fashion gurus give me some input?

GWD..

Please ignore any Fashion Nazis who may respond.

You have the post atomic age look going and it works very well for you.
I'm diggin it and so will anyone else who is open minded! For those that are not.............Well you know what to do.

RB , That is the first Moonstone Fed that I've seen and I must say it looks great.
