Fedora shops

The only special hat I wear is a cowboy hat (straw in the summer, felt in the winter), luckily for me we have a handful of local western stores.

As for the fedora, see if you have a semi-local hatter. Here in Rochester we have Dave Brown who's made hats for John Wayne, Indiana Jones, etc, my Dad has gotten a few hat made from him, nothing like the custom fit/ feeling, built to your specifications.

Here's the website for my local haberdasher shop. They have a wide array of styles. Only a few true fedoras, but some have a wider definition than they do, so it may be worth a peek around.
