Floppy Brim Felted Wool Fedora

I love the shape of the hat but it is unfortunate that it does not follow the traditional hat sizing guidelines. A medium size usually has a 22.5 interior perimeter but this brand measured 21.5. If you go up a size, it jumps to 23.5 and there is nothing in between. As a result the medium feels tight and the large is as expected large.

I have been on the search for a black fedora for about two years. I have tried on hats whenever I find some. Most either look bad on me or are much too big. I saw this one in Nordstrom one day and tried it on......this one was perfect. It was in small which meant it fit perfectly. And the style is flattering and the brim is not too large. I know I will wear this for years to come. It is high quality! It was a real find.
