    Cool Felt

    I have recent discovered my very thin Borsalino is not a warm weather hat. The beaver fur fibers being so densly packed that it holds in the heat and the sweat insues. Although it is ver pliable and feather light it is an oven on ones head in the sun or shade. This will definately be a winter...

    An Open Road won!! It has Finally arived!! (Now fortified with pics)

    Thanks Havershaw. It's good to know that the shop that originally sold the hat is still in business. This one made a short trip over to Apple Valley California. Between Mesa & there I'm not too sure where it may have gone. If only they could talk. I guess the next time I'm in the Mesa area I'll...

    Well, when one makes a mistake one should own up to it. Again, Tony, sorry about the bad form. Wear it with pride my friend. With hat in hand. Dan

    Ok, now we enter the realm of just plain silly! (With apologies)

    My most humble apologies Folks... Wow! What an ass I've been. After reading my post I'd have to agree with y'all. That was rather stupid of me. I sincerely apologise to anyone whom I offended or made mad with this. I guess sleep deprivation mixed with shock and disbelief isn't the brightest...

    Ok, now we enter the realm of just plain silly! (With apologies)

    This was a Stetson fedora I was watching because there wasn't much action on it in several days but I wasn't going to bid on it because I had two secured already. I'm glad I didn't get into this bidding war. Some folks have way too much money and not enough brains...

    Borsalino won! It has arived!!

    Thanks gang, that is very appreciated. The shaping of the crown was fairly easy, about an hour working with the steam and it set in quite nicely. I love the light milk chocolate color of this lid. One thing though, even though it is quite thin, it is quite dense and so warm weather wearing is...

    Favorite type of Coat

    Stormy Kromer Although it may be useless for the summer, my preference would be the wool plaid mackinaw. But I'm just a winter person anyway. Cheers! Dan

    Scout Hat Cleaner on light colored hats.

    Hello All, I got a pretty handy tip from my local hat cleaner & shaper at, of all places, Boot Barn. I was going to buy the Scout Hat Cleaner for light colored hats (because the ones I needed cleaned were light colored, stands to reason) when the young man there said that I should get the...

    Borsalino won! It has arived!!

    Here's what I received... The felt is far thinner than I than I anticipated. Very nive indeed. It had a bit of a gritty texture to it when I pulled it out of the box, but I set to right away. I used an old Stanley Steamer my Grandmother had to give it a steam cleaning and a brushing. JP was...

    The Open Road Guild

    I should be receiving my Open Road today or tomorrow. I can't wait for this day to fly by and get home to see the package waiting for me there.:D I have patience for everything but mail order. It just never seems to arive fast enough when the money is put down. Must be that instant...
