Style | Bruno Capelo Flat Brim Fedora
Well, I wasn’t a hat man for quite some time.
I never thought I had the head shape for it (even though my head would be largely covered). I never thought they looked as cool on me as they looked on other people.
Mostly, it was in my “head” that hats didn’t work for me.
Wow, was I so wrong for so long.
I’m very proud and excited to have a great working relationship with a self-made entrepreneur and inventor David Frankel. His company name is Perky LLC and he is the inventor of the Perky Collar and other innovative solutions for menswear. He operates a kiosk in the South Park Mall here in Charlotte, NC where he sells many of his style inventions as well as other clothing accessories like ties, pocket squares, scarves and….hats!
David introduced me to fedora hats and the obsession began!
He allowed me to style this beautiful flat brim fedora, part of the Monarch collection of Bruno Capelo hats. They specialize in fine Australian Wool hats of various designs. This flat brim fedora is part of their Monarch Collection and I think I’m in love!
The Monarch Collection fedoras feature:
Crafted from 100% fine Australian Wool with a shine-on self-matching grosgrain hat band.
The brim is wide and it measures 3" with a bound grosgrain edging.
The body of the hat is firm so that it holds the shape to withstand everyday activities!
