If you like the hat, wear it. Who cares what other people think.

Man this is a great video, I like the fact that you are doing you and you aren’t worried about others opinions. I’m 48 yrs old and I have been wearing ball caps my whole life and just recently I got into the fedoras to have more of a cleaner casual look. So I’m no fashion guru and have turned to vids like this to help in my decision to create my new personal style. Thanks for the vid man.

It took me awhile to buy a hat, mostly because I was wearing tee's and jeans and I couldn't pull it off. After getting into jackets and shoes, the hat looks great.

Currently going for a wide brimmed hat for its utilitarian aspect (caps don't cut it in length and width to protect my face from the sun). I had an accident recently which left me with light scars on the face (must avoid sunlight exposition on those), so I'm taking the opportunity to plunge into wide brims.

The thing with those is that they are more "sensitive", style-wise. So I'll have to make it work!

I have a fedora just like the one you’re wearing in navy and I do get a hard time from people sometimes. I say “screw ‘em” and wear it because I enjoy it. Of course I don’t wear it to the point of wear that’s what people associate me with. I say to anyone you do you.

You are tall. Pull the hat down anf bend the front of the brim down a little. The hat is amazing !

In all my 44 years, I've NEVER seen a hat store. And I've travelled throughout the Southeast U.S. and been to 8 countries. 🤷‍♂️

I wear a Stetson open road and I get a lot of compliments 🔥

[DonBrusko]

Once you've nailed your size, custom makers are the way to go. Carles Marti based in Barcelona is a great maker. From Panamas to Fur Felt Fedoras, he'll custom make them for you. Great guy too.

I'VE BEEN BLESSED TO HAVE MY SUITS CUSTOM MADE FOR ME. I EVEN HAVE SOME FUR PIECE SILK SUITS, TROUSERS, VEST, JACKET, AND HAT OF THE SAME SILK MATERIEL. I'M ALSO A HAT FREAK OF THE HIGHEST ORDER. I AGREE WITH YOU AND I LIKE YOUR SKYPIECE. BROWNS, BLACK AND BLUE SHADES BLEND IN WELL.

I love hats I feel like it pulls your outfit together even more 🙏🏽

[ramirogarcia]

i have a black Bailey one it fits perfect for my personality plus black goes good on anything

[NoBSBeardReviews]

Great information and very helpful. Completely agree on hitting up a hat store in person.

[technolotree]

I think that hat looks great on you, bro. You made a great choice. I would love to have a nice hat store near me like Hatwrks. I love the Stetson models too.

[elizabethcarroll]

Fashionable Hats should be on your list. They have the best selection and customer service

[spankadelik]

After eyeing a Stetson Stratoliner for over a year I finally pulled the trigger on one last week. I measure my head with no exaggeration over 50 times. Took it out of the box and put it on my head and it was love at first sight. I was so sure I would like it I bought it online. Picked up the special edition in hemp because it's so hot right now. I rock it closer to the eyebrows with a slight tilt to the left. Definitely will be picking up a Natural or Caribou in felt next.

Hat Worx in Nashville was the first hat shop I ever visited. My wife and I purchased a few from there over the years.

First: The hat looks dope.. everyone who tells you otherwise is simply hating.
Second: Why have hats become such a controversial article of menswear? Used to be a staple in every man's wardrobe and they can be both stylish and functional. Hats (beyond baseball caps) need to be a thing again!

[milesholland]

Good choice, fits you perfectly. I am still on the search for my hat match

[XristosArgyropoulos]

I really like hats
The Trilby fits me like it was made for me

I am also a fan of the homburg, I hope I look good in one
