Product information "adVintage MasterPiece Fedora Hat - 100% beaver felt / 100x"
The naming of this fedora hat is my promise as a hatmaker: when you are looking for one of the best handcrafted fur felt fedora hats, you don’t have to look no further.
Maybe you already know from my handcrafted hats, that I stabilize the felt structute with the help of water, heat and pressure to secure that the hat keeps its shape for a long time. The MasterPiece Fedora is blocked in a special method, that lets the felt hairs re-arrange and merge, which significantly increases the persistence of the hat. This method is also known as „Pre-Aging“. What else can you expect from a adVintage Masterpiece Fedora? Finest, silky surface, dual „waterproofing“, „bullet proof“ lock stitching of the sweatband, the ribbon and bow made from one piece and very fine sewing. All in all roughly twice the labour time is neccessary for a MasterPiece hat, which is the main driver for the price difference.
Every single MasterPiece fedora hat is a one of a kind, crafted in many hours of handwork, from only the best materials and comes with an numbered certificate of authenticity. A hat box is unfortunately not included any more due to higher buying prices.
I'll send you a questionnaire by email after receipt of your order, so that we can determine your exact hat size and each details of your fedora. You can choose the style of you Fedora, your favorite sweatband and hat lining color, and the stiffness of the felt. A free laser engraving of the sweatband, such as your name, initials or a logo is also possible. Furthermore, if you have special requests, you can also choose from different felt colors (all 100% beaver felt), brim widths, crown heights, ribbons in different widths and colors, brim finishes and so on. I am happy to send you felt and ribbon samples by letter upon request.
This fedora will be handcrafted for you on order. The delivery time consists of a lead time (other orders ahead), production (about 10-14 days) and shipping (Germany about 3 days, Europe about 4-7 days, other countries about 20-30 Days). As payment method I would like to recommend you to select "PayPal for handmade hats" in the order process. I will send you a payment request via PayPal then, when your hat is ready for manufacturing (approx. 10-14 days before shipping).
If you select "rapid" as an additional service, I will start making your hat immediately, so it will be ready for shipping or pickup after about 10-14 days. This availability of this service is limited, because it will be done in overtime, so this extra has no influence on the delivery time of orders from other customers.
