    JFK no hatless Jack

    Perhaps he just wanted to show people that he had hair? Jack didn't kill the hat. Fashion designers did. They narrowed lapels, ties, pants, etc. including hat brims. They took the function out of the hat (shadewise) and made them useless. So why bother? That's what killed the hat.

    The Borsalino Bellini

    Obviously you don't know who Fellini is. But, I appreciate the humor. I've seen the "Hebrew Hammer." Not a Fellini film. :D

    The Curse of Indiana Jones

    Let's face it. The Indiana Jones movies have created more fedora fans than anything in our lifetime. We should embrace it and welcome the newcomers into the fold. And... just ignore the ignorant comments. It's not a bad thing. It's a good thing.

    Hat Help

    I wouldn't call that a stingy. It's looks more like a typical 2 1/2" brim. Which is standard fedora.

    Rookie Mistake (Need Help!)

    Using coffee or tea doesn't really dye anything, it acts more as a stain. I'm not sure what you'd use to dye straw. I've had great luck using the J.T. Marcus hair dye trick on felt. If you can't get those stains out, you'll have to go darker to cover them up w/ dye. I did spray paint...

    The Curse of Indiana Jones

    You can only blame yourself. You order an Indy hat... you get what ya got coming. So don't be frickin whining about it. I can whine about it but... ya know what? It aint no Indy hat but, people don't care. It reminds them of one. Some people like ourselves may actually get serious...

    The Curse of Indiana Jones

    I had several whips as a child. Horse Country. I just loved that crack. Never hurt anyone or anything with one. It was those BB guns that got us in trouble. :D

    Wearing a Fedora

    Quit caring what other's think. In most cases they're thinking," Nice Hat! Wish I had the balls to wear one." :D

    History of the Fedora

    I think it was Humphrey Bogart's father that started the craze. And then that darn John Kennedy killed hats. They shoulda shot that guy... Oh Wait! They did. ;)

    Josh Bernstein's hat

    Or if the 3"+ brim is too wide for ya, the Banjo Patterson would do nicely.
