Red Wing Engineer Boots
Easily, pretty much any sole you could want can be put on it. I would suggest a the Supersole or a Vibram Pioneer, both wear well and have lots of shock absorbsion. Just stay away from the Vibram soles with huge lugs, they're hard and have no shock absorbsion to them, or the original dual...- Fedora Jay

Red Wing Engineer Boots
Nice boots for a nice price there! It's been a while, but I worked for Red Wing for over ten years. Crepe soles are one of the softest RW uses, they give great shock absorbsion and comfort, but wear out the fastest. As far as better arch and stability, as long as a heeled boot has a full...- Fedora Jay

Longhairs & Fedoras
I have a pony tail about halfway down my shoulderblades. I don't usually wear my hair down though with a hat on, I look like some movie slasher or something.- Fedora Jay

The Dumbest Comment I Ever Heard
insulted by a potato! I had the animatronic Mr. Potato Head at Disney California Adventure insult me yesterday. My wife and I were the only ones standing in front of the Midway Madness ride, watching the Mr. Potato Head, when he said, "You sir, in black! (I was wearing a black shirt and a black...- Fedora Jay

I don't think a bowler would look too good on me. I'll get a picture in the next few days, my computer is down right now, and I can only post from work.- Fedora Jay

The Hat Confessional Thread
I don't like straw hats or stingy brims. Some people look good in them, but they're not for me. I want a fedora with a huge brim like the Shadow has. And you better believe that I'll wear it! T-shirt and denim is my main outfit of choice, either shorts when its warm, or black jeans when...- Fedora Jay

Do you doff yours?
At what point in a restaurant do you all take off your hats? Usually I keep it on while waiting for a table, then take it off when we're seated.- Fedora Jay

my Stetson Pony Express conversion
Thanks for the input! I agree that the Pendleton looks better on me; we kinda figured out that the taper on the Stetson wasn't quite right, maybe I can play with it a bit and take some of it out. I used to think the brim was also too wide, but I've gotten used to it, and really like it now. I...- Fedora Jay

my Stetson Pony Express conversion
I couldn't find any pics of it before I rebashed it, but here's what the end results are. I removed a leather thong from the band, flattened the back of the teardrop and creased the back corners tightly, deepened the side dents, put a tighter pinch on the front, and curled the back sides up (I...- Fedora Jay

Is there something you really want to wear but are chicken?
I love my trench! I hate the summer expressly because its too hot to wear it. Once you get over the self-conscious phase, you'll never go back. I'll wear pretty much anything I like in public, but I can't help but wonder what people think of me when I do. I've owned a Utilikilt for about...- Fedora Jay

Another hat at work question
Thanks for the replies so far, thats pretty pretty much what I was thinking would be ok. I'm a civilian contractor, the actual military presence on base is small. I mostly deliver to programmers, technicians, and office managers, I rarely see the enlisted or NCOs.- Fedora Jay

Another hat at work question
I work on a military base, receiving deliveries, sorting them, then taking them to the proper people in a secure area. I drive a golf cart around to the different buildings, and I'd like to wear my hat, but I don't want to be thought of as rude by wearing it inside. Most of the buildings are...- Fedora Jay

The Dumbest Comment I Ever Heard
I couple years ago during the big grocery store strike, my wife and I went to one of the stores late one night, and there were a few picketers out. One kid, late teens or early 20's (I was only in my late 20's myself) saw me in my leather Indy hat and black trench, and started in with "Hey Tex...- Fedora Jay

Well, I haven't worn my Stetson on any rides yet, but for my oilskin, I just jam it into the mesh bag on the seat in front of me. Last night we just went for dinner and desert (annual passes rock!). On other rides, I've just pushed the lap bar or shoulder bars down over the brim, and keep a hand...- Fedora Jay

New here, and a thank you!
Hello everyone! I've been a closet fedora fan for a while, but just recently stumbled upon the forums here. I bought my first hat, a black Stetson Pony Express, on a trip to Tombstone about twelve years ago. Its fairly western looking, and as I passed through my western phase, I quit wearing it...- Fedora Jay
