Mens fedora hat

You have been exploring different dapper outfit combinations but are thinking of leveling up your charismatic style even more by getting started with wide-brim fedora hats. You might be skeptical and afraid to go against the trend and norm or merely do not know how to start. Either way, we can help you open that different genre of style by laying out everything we know about fedoras so you can start rocking one.

What Makes a Fedora?

No matter how much the design of a fedora hat evolves, these defining attributes remain the ones that make a fedora:

  • Its fixed crown is creased at the center and pinched on both sides
  • Its flexible brim can vary from 2-3 inches wide
  • Usually made from wool or fur felt, with a silk ribbon or strap around the part where the brim meets the crown

When It’s More than Just Style

When you think about fedoras, you think about how uniquely stylish you would look in a casual look or a tuxedo. But more than just sprucing up your outfit, these hats may also be as functional as your typical umbrella, minus the hassle of carrying one. Hats serve as your full face protection from the sun, snow, and even the rain. This is especially true the wider the brim of your hat is, of course. This is what brings wide-brim Fedoras to an advantage against your casual narrow-brimmed beanies or trilbies. But when is a hat a wide-brim hat?

Let’s Talk About Wide Brims

Any hat with a brim of three inches or more is called a wide-brim hat. This kind of hat can either help or sabotage your outfit, so make sure you purchase a hat that flatters your face shape and suits your body frame. Wearing wide-brim hats is not a walk in the park, too. Not all looks fit these hats, so you have to carefully examine how it can make you look and make yourself look stylish instead of trying hard novelty.
