    SOLD Vintage Stetson "Standard" for sale

    Okay...you've made your point: you don't like the block. I got that. It's sold, so it will be reblocked by the new owner. Lighten up. (of course, it IS a black hat!)

    Champ Featherweight Has Narrow Escape!

    Nice hat. I have one like it that I have worn for years. I did, however, change the ribbon. It's a very comfortable hat.

    SOLD Vintage Stetson "Standard" for sale

    Thanks, Baron; this hat is hand-blocked right now. It's a simple matter for the new owner to steam it back to open and then block it as they wish. The felt is still very supple. Craig

    The Stetson St. Regis homburg - what can you tell me?

    The St Regis is a great homburg. Wonderful proportions. It was one of the two hats I wore in a video I did seven months ago in Boston: http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&VideoID=22995207 It can be worn with a lot of styles, from casual to dress. Go for it.

    Vintage Pearl Grey Borsalino for sale

    Ah, yes...remodeling means making more room. I have a few hats that, for one reason or another, I don't wear. So I thought I'd post them here in hopes they would go to someone who would appreciate them. I will post them one at a time and they will not go on Ebay. You may PM me with any questions...

    Stetson 1940: "The Nonchalance is Blocked In"

    I would agree. Maybe it's not a hat I'd wear everyday...but it has a lot of attitude, and that's a big part of apparel.

    The 1920 JAZZ SUIT

    Very nice, Scotrace. The cut of the suit seems to favor a smaller physique. Don't know about that boater, though.

    The 1920 JAZZ SUIT

    That is actually an interesting looking suit, Marc. While it isn't something I would choose for everyday wear...I think it would look pretty great on stage...with the right hat.

    Adventurebilt order - slipped through the cracks?

    You guys are lucky...I ordered a custom built ukulele from a luthier in Maryland, and it took 2 years and three months to get it. I knew his wait list was that long. It was considerably more expensive than a custom hat and it was well worth the wait. Getting anything made custom from a one...

    Bringing Back the Hat (article)

    I would agree...it's flipped. Altering photos in a major way or reversing the image to better fit the layout is very poor design. The article is nice, but bland. Most of the images are from movies.

    Panama / straw hat durability?

    I usually buy a new straw every couple of years. For most hot weather, I just wear one of my lighter felts. All straws are more delicate. But, mostly, I don't care for the way I look in a straw, even a great panama...it's more a personal preference.

    My problem child

    Ah...there speaks a wise man. Almost any "handcrafting", from hats to musical instruments to vintage automobiles, requires a lot of Patience and Persistence. Paying attention to details becomes more and more important the better you get at something. That's a nice hat, Tonyb. And it must be...

    Borsalino web site.

    It is odd that they can't get it together to put up a decent website. Whoever is doing theirs is Flash-happy...makes for a long design time and a slow load.
