    HOLY GRAIL? /What fedoras are you pining for?

    Wishlists are awful. Loungers like Bowen, Alan, and Steven always post new hats that I NEED (not want, need!). If i were to make a list. .. True vintage cream linen cap, 1930s Stetson Standard Quality boater Stetson Flagship like the one Dana Andrews wears in the ad, Borsalino Nutria Quality...

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    Thank you! I concur, the brim binding on both hats is quite special. Ya know, i thought the distinct bash looked familiar. Glad i could give another lounger business. I might even try for another lid from him, his selection has some grails! No kidding! Might quit for a while after this...

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    Two ebay victories tonight! First one's a Mallory Ten. The color combination is something I've been seeking for quite some time. I'll let Willow Green's pics speak for themselves.

    Looking fresh, Justin! Sick hat too, need me a gray fedora sometime soon. Any particular occasion that called for this getup? Either way, loungers love a sharp dresser!

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    I think, with the matching tie/pocket square, and the hat's combination with the suit, the whole fit is a little monochromatic. Additionally, the black suit with a gray hat look is a bit formal, may be rather intimidating. If i'm wearing black, usually it's a sports coat with contrasting...

    The School of Hard Knox

    While it is an uncommon style for the time, just because few people sported the ones with back bows, doesn't mean they were nonexistent. I don't think it's hard to believe the original owner just opted for a less usual style. The receipt and tag are smoking guns, the hat is assuredly from the...

    Horror stories with vintage clothing

    Ouch! The ANJ-4 is a remarkable jacket too! What did you do with it after it met that grueling fate? Were you embarrassed when it happened?

    The School of Hard Knox

    Thanks a lot, Red. I was appalled to find this on the 'Bay, attracting seemingly no interest. This is what I could find. Only the size and block type are visible on the manufacturer's tag, rest appears to be blocked by some strip of tape (?) Caught a fat whiff of that vintage leather scent...

    The School of Hard Knox

    Might as well submit my Knox here. My very first vintage hat, a dated 1/18/46 Knox Premiere, sold at the Stix Baer & Fuller Shop. The Stix Baer & Fuller was a store chain that operated in St. Louis from 1892 to 1984. With only a 2'' brim, this hat isn't really my type. Not as cool as I...

    Horror stories with vintage clothing

    Hey guys, As the vintage the Lounge typically prizes is very old and may be quite delicate, I was wondering if anyone has had any embarrassing or awful experiences with wearing or collecting vintage. I haven't suffered too much, other than when I was doing a photoshoot with an actor, and my...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Fascinating history on the hat, and the ad looks awesome! I have to say, the company's crest looks far ahead of its time, nothing I would expect from a hat of this era.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Thanks, Red. I have to agree, this Strat is awesome and gave me an open mind for the western-style fedora. I'm pondering the purchase of a vintage Mallory XV right now. A while ago, I wouldn't touch these thin-ribbon, light colored hats with a ten foot pole. Thank you Bowen, this means a lot...

    What hat are you waiting for today?

    Congrats, guy! Hope this one encourages you to keep collecting. There's a wonderful (and costly) world of hat to delve into.
