    What's for Dinner?

    Hey Hoosier, did you know? When we were in Ireland, we were spending time w/ British folk. They referred to Smithwicks beer as: phonetically pronounced "smithicks" I also still resist the British saying "saydule" vs. schedule.

    Opinions: Legendary Brand Buco J-24 D-Pocket H.H.

    The jacket arrived and I really liked it. It's hard to admit, I was a little skeptical regarding the accuracy of the company's sizing chart. The Schott website says for a 618, order one size larger. In their case, I know I need TWO SIZES LARGER. Therefore, Legendary says, " order your...

    Pros and Cons of Inner Cloth or Leather Hat Sweat Band

    I am gleaning from the input that leather is the way to go. Negatives for the roan: this type of leather may require more regular cleaning and possibly resizing from shrinkage, from time to time. Positives are: better or tighter fit, more comfortable on the head, and more traditionally correct.

    Pros and Cons of Inner Cloth or Leather Hat Sweat Band

    Hey Fletch, is that Ames Iowa? Yes, I sweat alot and that is always a concern of mine regarding wearing a hat and ruining it w/ sweat stains. Sounds like a plain old leather is the way to go?

    Pros and Cons of Inner Cloth or Leather Hat Sweat Band

    I purchased a panama that arrived w/ a cloth band. I can send it back to have it replaced w/ a leather band for $10 or a roan band for $15. Should I leave it as is, or send it back. Which band should I choose? I am not really sure what a roan band is?

    1954 Mercedes Gull-Wing 300SL

    I do the same thing regarding money and where to spend it. That said, gold now vs., antiques or a car at its peak? Gold/silver is always going to be a quick easy dump when prices reach 1800+ a ounce. Love the cars but, metals are always the best way to dump ones investmets.

    The Olympics!!!

    I think we (fedoraloungefolk) have a narrow perspective about fashion. Remember the Olympic Teams try to appear to be: traditional, different from the past, in touch w/ the present and, looking to the future. The sum of the equation is: the current uni's. Sometimes I need to remind myself...

    The Little Things

    Just a word of advice. The antique furniture market is as low as I can remember in the last 15 years. My buddy said the prices of furniture equals the 1980's. Problem is, not much is moving (selling). People/enheritants are choosing to store or hold onto antique furniture that they would...

    Is this a good price for a Resistol on the Bay?

    Not sure if you have a real affection for stingy's but w/ your head size you can easily wear a larger than normal brim and still look good. Just food for thought.
