    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    My Rocky Mountain Hat Co. Buckaroo style in 100% Beaver. One of my favorites!

    Western, anyone?

    Understood Joao--But the style works for me--with regard to both aesthetics and tradition as I embrace the Californio style of horsemanship, style, etc. I'm a hard fit in any kind of hat due to my small head, long face, etc. Proportions have to be just right or they just plain don't work...

    Replacement for Carhartt Chore Coat

    Maybe something from Schaefer Outfitter? I have their Mesquite Jacket and have/had many others--great US made product: http://www.schaefer-ranchwear.com/ Or LC King/Pointer Brand perhaps: https://lcking.com/

    Filson coats - anyone?

    So to add to the confusion re Mackinaw Cruiser fit: I tried on an older size 40 (from right before the switch to S,M,L sizing), and it was too big. The store also had a Medium Seattle Fit--honestly it didn't fit much different--still big. So I figured a 38 would be a good fit--I found a nice...

    Vintage Photos of Leather Jackets

    I was was channel surfing and saw a 1951 movie "Lightning Strikes Twice" listed with a description that sounded interesting to me so I recorded it. Low and behold an uncredited Frank Caddy--who played Sam Drucker in Petticoat Junction/Green Acres show up in a scene as a Gas Station Attendant in...

    Cowboy Boots

    I think that some actually make a unique last for your foot--that might warrant a fee. I believe other "made to measure" boot companies pick a last that's close and go with that, or make minor tweaks--not sure that warrants an up charge. Not sure which bootmakers do and which don't. I was...

    Filson Mackinaw Work Jacket

    Thanks! I usually wear a 40 regular jacket. You might ask Filson for their recommendation--that's what I did. They show measurements on the website bit think they have more info on the different styles. I used the online chat. There are vendors that offer free shipping and returns like Zappos too.

    Filson Mackinaw Work Jacket

    Had the wife snap a few quick ones. It is a trimmer, more tailored look/fit, but I think it works for this jacket--easy to layer over a heavy flannel, but probably not a heavy sweater (which I wouldn't do anyway). Doesn't feel restrictive. This is the size Small, and I'm about 5'10", 162 lbs...

    Very cool-nice score!

    Haha only the camera angle--I'm 5'10" with a 32" inseam--the slicker goes almost to the ground--I tried to capture as much of it as I could.

    Filson Mackinaw Work Jacket

    I just got one today in Navy--sharp jacket! I plan to use it as a sort of business casual jacket for work and for wearing with jeans on the town. I like the vintage vibe--kind of like a fancy mechanics jacket. They do fit big--I'm 5'10" and 162 and bought a small. It's a trimmer fit but not...
