Close But Not Quite (2/5) | Nov 21, 2008 | DAVE THOMAS | Chicago Il US |
| The hat on the website has a red feather and the one they sent me has a black feather. This may be trivial to some but it was key to the ensemble I was wearing. I deducted 3 stars for that. I ordered the hat on Saturday for a concert on Thursday. The delivery was quick and the hat, despite the black feather, actually looks better than the picture on the site. Two stars for that. | ||||

Excellent Hat (4/5) | Mar 2, 2009 | Wil Cintron | Deltona FL US |
|
The quality and shape of the hat are very clean and crisp, the only flaw I found to the product is that the color of the feather is not accurately reflected by the picture, and there currently seems to be no control over that. (I received a black and grey feather) Otherwise, excellent purchase. |

Nice budget hat (4/5) | Mar 12, 2009 | Christopher Toler | Thomaston Ma US |
| The only real drawbacks I see are the wool felt (as opposed to fur) and the thin, papery sweatband, but for the price, this hat is excellent. I steamed mine and re-shaped the crown into a diamond crease, and tightened the front pinch. With the tall, untapered crown and stingy brim, the Executive has a nice, 30s-ish look to it, for an affordable price. I bought mine in a butterscotch/Camel color which seems to be discontinued now. | ||||

Wrong size (4/5) | Mar 23, 2009 | Don Davisson | Fairview TN US |
| I love the hat but...I ordered a 7 1/8 and received a 7 5/8. I put some spacing material under the band and it works fine. It won't stop me from ordering in the future. | ||||

Great Choice! (5/5) | Oct 27, 2007 | Carol | FL US |
| If you're looking for a quality-made wool felt fedora, this is a great hat. The stingy brim holds its position flipped up or down and the sizing is perfect. My only suggestion to VillageHatShop is that you should market more of these fabulous men's hats to women, too. I wore mine to a concert and lost count of the compliments that I received on my great hat! | ||||

Great topper! (5/5) | Dec 5, 2007 | Brien | Baltimore Ma US |
| The Executive fedora from Bailey has everythig you'd expect from the company: great style, construction and material. The stingy brim is just the right length for dress or casual wear, the wool felt is nice quality and fairly stiff (don't crush this one, it won't bounce back). The crown is a little on the western side, wider and more peaked. Overall, a great hat and a perfect choice for the cold months. | ||||

This is the one (5/5) | Dec 29, 2007 | Mike T | OH US |
| I'm very pleased with my Bailey Exec. It has quality, made in USA construction, and understated proportions. If you are looking for a hat that will let you project a bit of old-school style and refinement, without the attendant snark and "look at me-ism" that some fedora styles impart to their wearers - then this is the one for you. | ||||

Lots of compliments! (5/5) | Jan 13, 2008 | Rich | Gurnee IL US |
| I wanted an "old style" look and this hat does it. Love the stingy brim! It's amazing the looks you get and the compliments are flying. A real hit with the ladies! A female friend tried mine on, liked the look for herself and ordered her own. | ||||
