    Trenchcoats, still a faux-pas for teens?

    I wear a plain front long London Fog(light tan)rain or shine with or without the liner. It's a classic then and now, and looks great with a hat.

    My new "Vienna Hat" from Miller Hats

    I like....I've yet to be disapointed with what I found in a white Miller box.

    Hats with modern dress and a shaved head. . .

    I'm also a headshaver and only my work hats have a little oil that came through the bands onto the felt. I don't like the celephane head liners and usually cut them out because they stick to the top of a smooth head.

    Opinion on a Straw

    I appreciate that Bob. I look forward to buying my next straw hat at PanamaBob. Maybe one with a bit more brim.

    Opinion on a Straw

    I think a whole lot of my new Bailey "Austin" from the Fedora Store. Love that golden straw.

    How did you start wearing hats?

    As a kid I loved going over to my granddaddy's house and try on his hats. Loved the smell of those old hats. A couple years ago we ran across some photos of him wearing his hats and the idea hit it's probably time to buy one for myself. Love the smell of my felt hats:) Love wearing'em too...

    Are you ugly 'cause yer mad or are ya mad 'cause yer ugly?

    I've been wearing my new hats for just a few months now. My wife claims she'll never get use to a fedora. That's what she said about my bowties :)

    Peter Bros versus Miller Hats

    Nice folks at Miller. I've bought two hats from them by mail. I'd love to walk in both Miller and Peter's Bros. and try on lots of hats. Wish we had a retail hat store here.

    Happy Straw Hat Day!

    That's interesting. I'm a retired city fireman, and we always went into long sleeve shirts on Sept. 15th and into short sheeves on May 15th. The tradition must have been passed down by hat dates.

    Hat head is no worry of mine either. I always keep a clean shaven head under my lids. They stay on better too.:cool: PW

    In Praise of Narrow Brims

    Yes, I bought the Baldwin brand new. My understanding is that Biltmore make s the Miller hats, and I think it's a very nice hat. I like the firm feel to the hat, yet the felt is soft and smooth..and thin. I'll buy more Millers

    In Praise of Narrow Brims

    A couple things I've learned already...I like the narrow brims and lower crowns. That makes buying easier in the future. My avatar hat is a Miller Baldwin with a cut down brim (2") I just cut a Squatter down to 2 3/8". Another thing I have discovered is that I like a moderately priced hat. It...

    sleeping in a hat?

    Sure...I sleep in a lightweight wool toboggin during the cold months. We turn the heat down at night, and my noggin gets cold without it. A few years ago I looked around for a Ebeneezer Scrooge type nightcap with no luck. Some men still sleep in nightgowns too.

    Hat Obsession

    You don't have to have that many hats to have an obsession. I have only one so so, but I'll need a bigger house by the time I'm through.:)
