    Over 100 Vintage Fedoras

    I'd be interested to see if you manage to dig up anything on Kensington - I have a stratoliner clone made by them but have had no luck hunting any down and information on the brand. Oh and another 7 1/4 who's keen to see what you have as well ...:)

    Vintage Eyeglasses

    Salut, Went and bought a pair-o-specs off the bay on a gander and it arrived today. Condition is fair, but my question is do you chaps and chapettes think it worth getting prescriptions fitted would be worth it? Oh and it cost 18 quid if its anything. Any opinions appreciated! (even any...

    Frock coats

    As a frock coat aficianado may I offer my two cents. (I assure you in person I am not as obnoxious nor as pretentious as I appear :P) I can personally attest the many wonderful qualities of a frock coat, it flatters any wearers figure due to its cut (waist seam and the panels at the...

    my new frock coats and cape

    Excellent coats sir, I was watching them myself, glad to see another lounger got them :eusa_clap Just a pointer, the first coat you have would be a morning coat with a three button stance, whilst the second would -from what I can observe- be an overcoat. A frock coat has square fronts at the...

    Renovating a top hat

    Hello all, I have just recently come into possesion of an older top hat, it still has considerable life in it, however, the shellac frame (I am assuming) has given a little i.e. sorta like a slight fold in carboards you find. I was just wondering, is there any method, short of getting it...
