    Toppers Unite

    Wow, now THAT'S a topper. Shame with that ribbon, though. Plan on wearing it anytime soon? :D

    Show us your TIES

    I have to agree with you. I have grown very accustomed to the feel and look of these ties. The patterns are limitless, and there are so many to find in thrifts or online. I'm guessing these haven't grown on Japanese buyers yet :rolleyes:

    Panama Hat Thread

    I have to say, the hat looks very unscathed for one that's supposedly endured (at least) 3 owners. I feel like that defies the purpose of owning the hat, unless it was some heirloom?? Wear your hats, people!

    Panama Hat Thread

    D A M N. That is an excellent Panama! Is the box its original? I only wish there were more hats with their original boxes around. This Wormser knocks mine outta the park! Wear it with pride, Bill.

    1927 Overcoat

    What a stylish coat. Looks like it could withstand the coldest winters. Good luck with this sale. If I had a pre-40's hat or two to trade, I totally would.

    7 1/8 Mallory Commander, 40s

    An outstanding hat! However, my hat budget does not extend to these heights. Another small-headed freak will have to enjoy this Mallory!

    So I Found These Pants Today

    Dont forget to send us a pic of the full ensemble ;) This is a pretty damn good score, Edwardian trousers in a store in...Iowa. It's bizarre how vintage stuff gets shifted to their polar opposite environments--I've heard New York City shops garner a lot of vintage Western gear, how ironic

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

    Both hats' surfaces do look very similar. Were you pleased with your Optimo? Is the quality noticeably different from hand-woven? I'm assuming this Sea Spray is on the lesser quality spectrum of Panamas?

    Is there a name for the style of flat cap Nik (Rabbit) is wearing in these pictures?

    My First Experience at a Tailor--Not good!

    here are somewhat better pics-- I don't think the pants are as unsightly as the woman made them out to be. What do you guys make of this?

    question

    Welcome to the Lounge. Not to backseat moderate, but this isn't the subforum for this type of discussion--Classified is reserved for the exchange of goods, though feel free to ask a question in the "Ask a Question, Get an Answer" thread in the hats subforum. Good luck

    Question on Alterations

    I did not want to make a separate thread about this-- Does anyone know if a tailor can shorten a suit jacket by 2 inches? I read an article on alterations that stated doing any more than 1 inch isn't worth the risk. Can anyone confirm or deny this?

    Panama Hat Thread

    I recently snagged one on eBay that's like this one, only with a solid black band. Cannot wait to share pictures of it when it arrives.

    Anyone thought of getting their Vintage Gear altered offshore ?

    I always thought Asian collectors to be more protective of their collectibles. I'm sure the highly sought after stuff like 1930s sports suits are still going for a King's ransom over there. Those collectors know what they have. Dinerman on here finds quite a bit of cool vintage in rural...
