: : What size of a brim did you get? There are three lengths you can get. Which is the best choice? Is it lined? If so, what color is it? Is the sweatband leather or cloth?
: I don't think there are three different brim sizes. A fedora is usually longer in the front, narrower on the sides, and even narrower in the back...hence the 2 3/4, 2 5/8, and 2 1/2" dimensions. This would mean 2 3/4 in the front, 2 5/8 on the sides, and 2 1/2 in the back (or I might have 2 5/8 and 2 1/2 reversed. It may be 2 5/8 in the back, and 2 1/2 on the sides...not sure).
: This hat looks like a great choice. I was thinking of getting it.
I have ordered one, and I think those brim sizes are 3 separate sized hats. I went with the 2 3/4 as this is the correct width. I have seen the same sizes in other dress hats, so thats why I say this. Stay tuned for a product report. Steve
