    “Vegan” felt?

    I don't know why these alternative materials are being explored when beavers can just be shaved for their fur. "Fouquet also prefers sustainable hat materials, such as beavers harvested for fur and felt in the Czech Republic. (No harm is done to the beavers when they are shaved)."...

    To even suggest that my posts said anything about how one should wear their hat is out of line. And to suggest that your response to my post, before all your editing, was anything less than serious and you trying to school me is comical.

    Considering a Stetson Open Road, what pairs well with it?

    Been a bit of a run on 3/8's of late on the bay but I've seen it go quite awhile w/o any decent vintage hats showing up.

    When I wrote this I had a thought, 'Mark is likely to respond somewhat emotionally with caps and emojis'. You do not disappoint. The bonus is you threw in those catalog pics of the snap brim ORs. I've seen them a dozen times and thanks for proving my point; I had never seen those pics prior to...

    And he never wore it as a snap brim fedora. Something I'd never seen until this place.

    It’s what boot makers use when they’re laying out patterns for inlay/overlay work.

    I have heard the refurb speculation before. If it was, it was a heck of a job as there’s no evidence of it. There is some writing on the hat body I’ve not seen before that I recall. Perhaps a special order? I do too. That’s why I enjoy your Gus hat so much.

    Post New Hats Here!

    Thank you, Rusty. It was a surprise to me. I couldn't remember running across one so white that wasn't a cowboy hat. I like the white too. I wore it yesterday and found myself checking my hands every time before I took it off or put it on. On a side note; can anyone share their knowledge of...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    Good to know the military was thinking of the big headed fella back then, Charlie. Your pup use that for a dog bed when you’re not wearing it? Stay warm, bud.

    Why?

    Interesting question. I’ve been inspired by what I’ve seen on screen but I’ve never wanted “that” hat or specific look. Don’t forget we have a Justified thread.

    I had some junk around the house I'd been "playing" and I decided to buy my first real guitar, a Guild dv-52. My picking buddy and I were sitting around "playing" soon afterwards and he said, "Damn, now you've got a $1,000 guitar you can't play".

    "Note: a fellow eBayer prompted me to reassess the color of the hat from white to off-white.” The above is quoted from the seller’s listing and I really want to thank TFL Hat POlice/Troll(s) for pointing this out to the seller so they could pass it on to us colorblind bidders. For without this...
