Alas, I don't have first hand experience with Jos. A. Bank clothes, I just saw the sale listing. -
Fedorafest III Stratoliner from Stetson
Ah, very good, thanks for info, I didn't realize the CD brim was that large. Good point about the FF3 being a prototype, too. -
Fedorafest III Stratoliner from Stetson
OK, thanks, I should have known that - by the way, is the brim of your FF3 a true 2-3/4"? It looks to be a little smaller than the brim on the Camp Draft. -
Fedorafest III Stratoliner from Stetson
Lucky dog --- I have no vintage silver belly, as my luck at finding large hats of any kind is minimal. Hey GTDean, what is a 'CB', and don't tell me it's a kind of radio from the 70s..... -
Fedorafest III Stratoliner from Stetson
The current production Strat has a factory block and a 2-1/2" brim. The FF3 hat being talked about here has an open crown, 2-3/4" brim and (it seems) a higher quality sweatband. -

Fedorafest III Stratoliner from Stetson
Others will correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the point is that the original Stratoliner issued by Stetson actually came with a DC-3 pin, in spite of the name of the hat. So this new version is meant to duplicate the original hat, including a hatpin with an incorrect plane depicted. There's... -

Another 'yes' to the DC-3 pin. And put me down for a couple of these while you're at it, that is if the fates align..... -

BRAND NEW!!! Art Fawcett VS Milan Straw...
Yep, that's a Milan weave, and a sweet-looking lid. Thankfully it's two sizes too small so I don't have a tough choice to make....- carldelo

Gorgeous Old Knox Stingy w/underwelt Brim 6 7/8
Nice lid, although regrettably very small. FWIW, it is a stingy-brim fedora with a center dent crease and an underwelt brim, not a homburg. If you can change the listing title to describe the hat more accurately, you will do better with the sale.- carldelo

Suit Wearing Guidelines?
^^^ excellent explanation Doc. I have a modern overcoat that is just a little too loosely woven. It's fine, even on very cold days, unless a strong wind picks up - then it quickly loses effectiveness. When I know it's going to be windy, I wear a heavy flannel suit under it. Mechanically... -
Help With Custom Hat Order
Should be fun - enjoy! As an aside, it's important to support local brick & mortar hat retailers so they don't disappear, so you'll be helping in that way as well. -

Help With Custom Hat Order
As said by others above, I would go to hat stores, try some lids on, buy a few and wear them for a year or two. If you know someone with good taste in hats, bring them along. Tastes evolve and you'll get smarter about hats over time. Vintage is a good option too (especially if you have a small... -
Black 'semi-dress' shoes for sporting event - suggestions?
If money is no object, you might consider the Strawfut, either in brown/linen or better yet in brown/navy mesh: http://www.allenedmonds.com/aeonline/product_6541414_1_40000000001_-1?top_category=120552- carldelo

Cravats / Scarves / Ties
These cravats from Bromley's might be close to what you're after - they're 50" long, so may come up a few inches short compared to the ad you posted. They have three pleats at the neck, no doubt to help them fit under the collar: http://www.classicwardrobe.co.uk/Cravats.aspx- carldelo
