In Reply to: Get the Fed. It's actually more of an authentic to the period fedora than the PB is.. posted by Dakota Ellison on April 30, 2001 at 17:18:05:

: : Hey all,
: : I've seen previous postings about how people are receiving their hats bashed already. Would it just be worth my time to cancel my order and save up for a Peters Bros. hat, or is it worth the $60 - $70 for a Federation? From pics I have seen before, the PB looks a bit more realistic, but I guess you get what you pay for. Thanks for your input!

: Now I didn't say it looks more like the "Raiders" fedora than the PB does. Fedoras by definition are a soft felt hat. The Fed is a soft felt fedora. I think some of the bashing is from the long trip in the shipping box. Mine was slightly flattened on top from someone pushing the box in. It popped right back out no problem.
