    Ralph Lauren Mens Spring 2013 Collection

    I like a lot of this stuff. The jackets in particular are all cut fantastically close at the waist. I also like the proportions on the double breasted suits. Some of the trousers could stand to have a higher waist, and one or two were a bit short, but overall I would wear probably 17 or 18 out...

    What ever happened to station wagons?

    When Top Gear tested the CTS-V wagon, it went faster around their track than the coupe. The prevailing hypothesis was better weight distribution.

    What ever happened to station wagons?

    Speaking of station wagons... where in the world is Tom? I would have thought he would be all over this in a heartbeat.

    What ever happened to station wagons?

    Minivans are lousy for anyone significantly over six feet (as are SUVs). Also, is being higher off the road a good thing? I always found driving a low car to be most comfortable. I can feel where I am much better. The only reason minivans get better gas mileage is because they are new. Old cars...

    Ask a question, get an answer

    I need Fedora suggestions! [New]

    I think that at your price range, your best bet would be to trawl ebay, or keep an eye on the classifieds here (or post wanted). You can definitely get a good hat for that price (if you are really patient, you can get 2, but that is tough.)

    The Great Gatsby - Remake in the Works

    A rather intriguing song by someone who was very influenced by Steven Tyler. I look forward to seeing this. I like Baz Lurhman's work, although honestly, his movies get progressively better as you go back in time, with Strictly Ballroom being by far the best. What worries me though, is Toby...

    The Conversion Corral

    Looks good. I did the same thing, making my "St. Regis Special." I think the stitching on the top looks really cool.

    *WANTED* 3 Inch brim fedora Preferably Knox or Stetson

    The alternative is Art Fawcett, at Vintage Silhouette's. He makes beautiful hats that are as good, if not better, than any vintage. However, waiting and finding just the right vintage hat is fun.

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    I had my first single malt: Glenlivet 12, courtesy of my older brother. I have to say, I definitely enjoyed it.

    Did fedoras originate with the "upper class"?

    We had some gigantic threads with a wealth of information in them about the origin both of the hat and the names we call it. However, I can't seem to put my cursor on them. Anyone have a link handy?

    Golden Era movies for material culture?

    My Man Godfrey is a good one, showing a lot of social contrast and such for a screwball comedy.

    Deciding on an Akubra...help please.

    I would say moonstone is probably the most versatile, followed by fawn.
