Pros
Cons Best Uses Comments about Stetson Benchley Beaver Fur Felt Fedora: Who knew that anyone still made genuine beaver hats? Unbelievable quality. Elegant, warm, sheds water like you wouldn't believe. I've worn fedoras regularly for a long, long time. This one gets more compliments even than the others. The quality shows.

Comments about Stetson Benchley Beaver Fur Felt Fedora: I took a huge risk on this hat, and it paid off big-time. I was actually thinking of buying the very expensive ($575) Borsalino small-brim all-beaver (as I have other Borsalino fedoras from Delmonico), but it was out of stock, and Delmonico suggested this as an alternative. Wow, is it awesome, and obviously way cheaper (relatively speaking!). I got the hat in Caribou, which is a beautiful gray/beige color (more gray than the picture suggests, but not gray-gray). A word about sizing: Stetson hats run a tad big. I normally wear a 7 3/8 (59), but had distant past experience with Stetson cowboy hats and knew a 7 1/4 was probably best. I confirmed that with Delmonico before ordering. It's like it was made for me.

Comments about Stetson Benchley Beaver Fur Felt Fedora: Again, I came back to buy another fedora hat from Del Monico Hat Company. This is the second Stetson Benchley Beaver hat I purchase from them. It is the best hat of any fedora I own and I have many new and vintage hats. The Benchley is now what I wear for most occasions. Some things are hard to explain and are best understood through experience. Buy this hat. Experience this joy for yourself...

Comments about Stetson Benchley Beaver Fur Felt Fedora: Ever since seeing Marcello Mastrian in Felini's film 8&1/2 (about 40 years ago) I've wanted a black fedora. I promised myself that when I turned 65 I woould get one. Marcello wore his with both sides up a bit, which gave the fedora a touch of a cowboy feeling. Of course, he could get away with that. So, having reached 65 I started looking for just the right fedora--a teardrop, not-too-high crown, and a fairly short brim. I assumed Marcello would wear a hat made in Italy, but even the most prestigious firms didn't have the precise hat I was searching for. Interestingly, Stetson did. I love this hat. I wear it with one side up and the other slantiing down over the forehead. It's perfect to wear to the opera as well as a nightclub. The felt fur os so soft it's unbelievable. I found the hat I've wanted for my entire adult life. A touch too small, but reducing tape fixed that.

Comments about Stetson Benchley Beaver Fur Felt Fedora: Let me say first off that I don't usually gush during reviews but I can't help myself in this case. I recently purchased two Stetson, Benchley 100% Beaver felt fedoras. These hats are really sharp looking and impeccably well made. The fit on both hats is as close to perfect as you can get. I am 6' 172 lbs with a slim frame; the hats look like were made for me. I got the black & mink in 6 7/8 and am now considering purchasing the hat in caribou. As for the purchase process, the whole transaction, from start to finish, was outstanding and, was in no small part, due to the personal attention and excellent customer service provided by Mr. Ernest DelMonico himself. I now understand why DelMonico Hatters has been a successful business for well over 100 years. Thanks so much Mr. DelMonico and your team for a wonderful shopping experience and two gorgeous, perfectly fitting Stetson fedoras!

Merchant response: Thank you very much for your review! You picked an excellent hat to reward yourself with. The customer mentions "Reducing Tape" - Reducing tape consists of thin, adhesive-backed strips of foam which are inserted behind the sweatband of the hat, to promote a closer fit if someone is between sizes. It is designed to be used with hats which have a brim all the way around. This is a free service we can provide to our customers, just email or call.
