    Rotten Pre-Teens Stole my Hat!!!

    A tough situation. I do think you should file a police report. This at least puts it in writing and maybe if they know you will go to police might give them pause in the future. I once had a bush stolen from my yard and I insisted on filing a police report. Reporting them to the parents...

    Help with leather tailoring

    Your best bet might be to find a local leather shop. I had some leather garmets that needed altering that I found at a consignment shop and since they did not cost a great deal took them to a leather shop. The shop specialized in let's say, adult merchandize, but the person who altered my...

    Berets, Anyone?

    Great photos, Daan. I own three black berets like the one you are wearing in the photo. They were given to me by friends who visited from The Netherlands. When they were about to come over they asked was there anything they could bring me and of course I asked for a beret (and received three)

    Hmm do you think Brooks Bros. is regretting the Thom Browne fiasco???

    Not only is that jacket, beyond hideous, if you look at what the model is wearing, the jackets are much too short. No one will look good in these unless you have the same proportions as the model. I do not blame retailers who charge ridiculous prices, I blame the customer who pays the...

    The modern cowboy hat

    Although not a Texan by birth, I do live in Dallas and own 4 cowboy hats. 1 white summer and 3 black hats. Why do you need 3 of the same? Because there are subtle differences. The color of the band, the curve to the brim etc. And in Texas, you can never go wrong in a cowboy hat

    not made for walking

    I have a pair that look similar of British miltary motorcyle boots dating from WWII. I tried them on in an army navy surplus store and had to buy them when I could not take them off

    Tie pins

    I own several of these and have heard them called "stick pins". Although used for ties as a tie tack would be used, I do believe they were made for cravats. I wear them occassionally with an ascot, usually in the center

    My favorite Sunday ritual is reading the paper on the patio with the dog in the chaise with me.

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    Went to a pool party yesterday where root beer floats were being served. They were made from root beer flavoured vodka (did not know it existed), amaretto, root beer and ice cream
