What hat are you waiting for today?

Quite some months ago, I dropped The Hattery a line to ask when they'd be getting the Federation Deluxe back in stock in Moonstone grey. The response indicated late February or March, and asked whether I'd like them to keep one aside for me and let me know when it arrived. I took them up on this. Last Monday morning, as I logged into my email I was reminded of this, and just as I was thinking of dropping them a line to see if there was any news, I noticed there was an email in from them over the weekend- hat had arrived, and a link to where I could pay the invoice. The hat was in the postal system by Tuesday. It arrived at Heathrow on Friday evening, and has now cleared customs; I'm expecting it to arrive tomorrow or Thursday. Seems, fingers crossed, I've not been hit by customs charges (maybe I've benefitted from the Australian trade deal with the UK that was signed a year or two ago, not sure).
I've always had great customer service from The Hattery (I've bought I think seven hats from them now since 2008), but would highly recommend with this experience dropping them a line if they don't have your size in stock. It's been a wait of four or five months for this one to come available, but I see my size was sold out already when I got their email, so well worth getting in the queue if you want a Fed in particular.

Wow—even if it cost more than $13 Bob, it was absolutely worth it. That is a stunning hat!
That is a beauty, Bob. But at 7/8 it's either going to be far too small or much too big, isn't it?

Do you want the honest answer or the diplomatic one?

I really didnt plan on a big hat purchase this month, but I finally ran across a nice brown Campdraft Deluxe in 59 after looking for what sees like forever. I just couldnt resist. (another one of those " probably more than I needed to spend" hats). More than I usually spend on a hat, but it was less than a new imperial grade, AND it was Heritage felt, and in the color and size I wanted... Cant wait till the usps gets it here!
