Well, if you are looking for a good one at that price I would go with the Official 554 or the G-MAN at Hippodrome hats. The G-MAN is a very nice Indy style fedora. The brim size of the HJ is 2 1/2 inches wide. These fedoras are very nice. You can get the fedora wet to a degree. But not soaked, only lightly wet. A sprinkle will not hurt the hat but a down poor would be bad news. If hat gets totally wet the shaping will be lost and the hat may shrink.
Regards,
