Fedora
I'm in the market for a good quality Fedora.. Stetson or simlar. Anyone here a hat enthusiast? What are some good ones to look for, and best places to shop? I'd like something in between "dress" and casual, sort of an all around.

I picked up a nice dark olive fedora with a simple ribbon at Orvis a couple of weeks ago.

A friend got his Stetson fedora at L.L. Bean, to take advantage of their lifetime replacement policy.

I wear a Classic Wax Safari hat from Australian Outback. A great deal for a very durable hat. A little mink oil every year (try that with felt) keeps the weather OUT!

PS. For years I wore a cloth Canadian made hat and got called Crocodile Dundee all the time even though my hat looked nothing like his. Now I wear and Australian cowboy hat and I get called Indiana Jones all the time. Go figure.

Another vote for Akubra. I have four at the moment. My best one is my Federation from Hatsdirect
I reckon Akubra are the best value fur felts around.
