Hero Jr. Fedora

Description

Step into a bygone era with the Hero Jr., an open crown fedora that allows you to recreate classic styles and shapes at an affordable price. In the past, many hats were sold “open crown,” meaning they hadn’t been shaped yet, leaving the creases or “bash” to be added by the hatter or customer. The Hero Jr. is named for its ability to make you feel like a hero while offering a quality hat at a “junior” price. The fedora has been a fashion staple since the 1920s and 1930s, worn by everyone from the average man to bankers or even archaeologists. During the 1930s, the open crown fedora was an everyday accessory for the average man. Over time, this style of hat has become a timeless symbol of elegance and adventure. This open crown fedora is not a replica of any individual hat but is made from existing hat blocks so people can recreate their favorite classic styles or make something entirely new! Currently, we only offer brown with dark brown ribbon, but we plan to offer other colors and styles in the future. Product Details:

Sizing Info: Available is hat sizes 55-62. DO NOT order your hat based on the size of another hat brand. Our hats are true to size standard oval, so please measure your head in centimeters and round to the next size up. (If you’re 56.7, do 57. If you’re 57.3, do 58.) If your hat feels loose, you can always add padding (such as folded paper or foam) to give your hat a perfect fit.

Shaping Service or Open Crown: Your hat will come open crown which means you need to add the shape or “bash” yourself. It’s not as hard as it seems, and we can send you some videos for reference. However, if you’d rather not do it yourself, we can shape the hat for you for an additional $20. In the checkout notes or after your order, please add a message with how you’d like to have your hat shaped. Please give a link or 2-3 images from difference angles. Because each hat is made differently, we cannot promise it to be identical to the image you send, but we’ll aim to match the primary characteristics. Hats are not returnable or refundable if shaped.

NOTE: Hats are made to order, so this explains the 2-5-week turnaround before shipping which can take 7-21 days (sometimes more). *Each hat is made to order, so the dimensions will be close but may not be precisely what is listed.

Returns, Exchanges, Shipping Problems: We only accept returns or exchanges for unshaped hats. Return shipping is at the expense of the customer. If a hat is damaged during shipping, please contact us immediately with thorough pictures of the box and hat. Please keep both the hat and the box. In order to replace the hat, we will need to contact the courier, and we need all the info possible. We will let you know if you will need to make a complaint to the courier yourself.
