Christy's of London
Man, I need to learn how to sew a ribbon onto my hat. I've grown to love my Adventurer except for the conspicuous tack stitches in the band. -
Christy's of London
I remember feeling a bit disappointed when I bought my light grey Adventurer last year and a wrote a pseudo-scathing review. However, I have grown to really love that hat; it's probably the dressiest looking hat in my relatively limited collection. -
Pulling Off the Casual Look
For me, it's not the hat; I haven't left the house in almost a year without some sort of hat, it's everything else. I do have more casual hats, heck, that black Tilley is much more casual looking than my Christy's Adventurer, but I also remember feeling like I had to revamp my entire wardrobe... -

Pulling Off the Casual Look
I've seen a few pictures of loungers wearing casual attire with their felt hats, how do you all do it? I can't help but feel ridiculous wearing jeans, a t-shirt or sweater, and a fedora; I always feel the need to dress up. I still dress casually with some of my hats, usually when I'm running... -

Who looks the most dapper in a modern hat?
Well it is actually factory creased and it is pretty tapered, here it is beside my Adventurer. It holds up to the elements really well. The fit is a bit off because of the lack of a leather sweatband and the foldaway earflaps, but it can be secured pretty snugly with the earflaps... -
Who looks the most dapper in a modern hat?
Meh, what the hell, it's probably my only good picture in a hat anyways. In the Tilley Fedora; so modern, it doesn't even have grosgrain. Do I get extra points for that? :D -
Post New Hats Here!
I love that thick ribbon, I always have a soft spot for light grey hats, it's probably because of Paul Newman. :eusa_clap -
What are the stereotypes associated with different hats?
I still kind of associate newsboy caps with the lower class...no offense. [huh] -
Greetings from Canada
Welcome, fellow Ontarian here. I visited the Hatter in January or February; great place but didn't see anything I absolutely had to have. But with summer quickly approaching I am in need of a nice summer hat, I'll probably head down there again. -

Akubra Overload
I'm all but ready to take the plunge; with all of the Fed IV arrival threads and my dissappointment with my Christys' Adventurer, I've got my sights set on a couple Fed IV Dlxs. While the Adventurer looks good from far, it's far from good; I can't get over the spotty felt, glued in liner, and... -
mine arrived today, too!
Could a Fed owner post up a picture of the ribbon, more specifically, the stitching (if it's visible) holding it in place? -
mine arrived today, too!
Gah...one more Federation arrival thread and I'm going to take the plunge. Nice lid. -
My Fed D finally arrived!
That's the moonstone right? Regardless, nice lid, the temptation to own one is increasing with every Akubra thread I see. -
Does anyone wear their hats tipped back?
"Angles are attitudes." I tried "brim swooping over my eyes" look and with my peacoat, I just look like the creepy "neighbourhood watch" guy. I agree that the tipped back look does convey a friendlier persona; in modern society, fedoras are mysterious enough as is. My only problem with the... -

I TRADED A $22 PIZZA FOR THIS GREAT FEDORA !!!!!
WOW this must have been one hell of a pizza for you to get such a nice hat in exchange. As a fan of felt hats and pizza, I'd like to know what was on the pizza. ;) -
NEWBIE: I need help finding a fedora
I guess most people think that the major problem with the Tilley fedora is it's styling and lack of options. It's a love-it-or-hate-it hat and if you do hate it, there's unfortunately not much you can do about it without making drastic changes which will probably void your warranty (this feels... -
NEWBIE: I need help finding a fedora
I guess like the rest of their hats, Tilley's fedora isn't for everyone. I remember looking at an older thread here in the lounge basically ripping the Tilley fedora apart (figuratively, this hat's very durable :rolleyes:) with regards to its styling. I suddenly began to feel buyer's remorse... -
NEWBIE: I need help finding a fedora
Ask and you shall receive... Here's a shot from the front to show how tapered the crown really is Beside my Adventurer A shot of the teardrop Left side w/ a shot of the hat pin Liner (those are foldaway ear flaps) Oh yeah, I almost forgot... -
NEWBIE: I need help finding a fedora
Well... As some may know (or wish to forget), Tilley Endurables does offer a fedora: http://tilley.com/detail.asp?catId=13&gender=m&extractBy=CategoryId&id=1&productNo=TF1 I may be a little biased with my opinions; my first hat was a Tilley fedora purchased in December '08 but the...
