    Stetson Surplus

    Wow, I can't believe I missed this thread until now! There are definitely some great looking Stetsons in here. Here is my current one and only fur felt Stetson. It's vintage, and while not officially marked as a Whippet, it has very similar dimensions.

    Stetson Playboy: Stretching & restoring...

    Glad to know you're making progress. It sounds like you caught a tough break. Still, should be able to liven that Stetson up with a little TLC.

    Ear Flicking, Hat Manhandling, Hat Tips, Boy George, and Hat Crushing

    Of all the strange comments and behaviors I have been subjected to as a result of wearing my hats, I can safely say I have never had anyone flick my ear to get my attention; little old lady or otherwise. In comparison to some of the things you've listed here Pompidou, my experience with...

    Strangely that almost works for me. My shoe size is about 10.5, and my hat size is 7 or 7 1/8. AGE: 25 HAT SIZE: 7 1/8 WEIGHT: 140

    people-watching

    I like to watch people at the university here in town as well as the mall and the airport. Generally you can always view interesting looking people doing curious things regardless of where you are.

    This generation of kids...

    This is interesting. I had a similar conversation with a coworker of mine at a former job. I was discussing my difficulty finding "my niche" since graduating in 2008. Along without discussion of where I'd like to go with my career in criminology and investigations, my coworker brought up the...

    Question[s] about a Stetson[s]

    Dang! Yes, I'd go back and get that! Even if worse comes to worse, you could always send it to me; it looks like its a 7 1/8!

    Have any other men noticed this?

    I've definitely noticed this over the years. I've noticed the same thing with shirts too. In all reality, I'm probably an adult medium, yet more often than not, buy adult small shirts.

    Favorite scary Radio Show

    I have to agree with this comment regarding Agnes Moorehead. That Suspense episode is still one of my favorites, although I definitely agree that her character was extremely whiney. As far as scary radio shows go, I love Suspense, The Mysterious Traveler, The Whistler, Lights Out, Dark...

    My first fedora. Some advice and support needed.

    Welcome BondsSV! That is a very nice hat, and I would have to agree with Torpedo that it is more casual than formal. Visit and post often!

    E-Telegram Service

    That's pretty cool! Although I admit it's very pricey. I'd probably only use it for a very special occasion.

    TEST: Pick The Brand- Stetson or Bailey?

    I'm going to have to go with the majority here. B. definitely looks like the Stetson.

    One-of-a-kind 1940's record player playing Nat King Cole

    That's very cool. Where did you find it?

    THE QUINTESSENTIAL FEDORA

    I honestly just can't decide. My go to fur felt hat seems to be the Akubra Stylemaster, so perhaps that would be my hat, or at least a model very similar to it. I'd need something that would look professional in both formal and casual settings.

    This generation of kids...

    I can't speak for the current generation going through the grade school system, so I don't know what the expectations are anymore. I never got a week off for Thanksgiving, although my family, and many other friends' families I knew wanted it for travel. When I was in my younger years of grade...

    Maltese Falcon 1931 version

    I'll have to watch that version someday. I too saw it was on Sunday evening, but had to get up for work early, so I didn't watch it. I've always been curious about that version.

    What else do you collect?

    Besides hats, I also have several vintage tube radios, a 1930's rotary phone, somewhere around ten vintage watches, vintage police and security badges, and a ton of radio shows. My collection is fairly eclectic, and nearly anything from the turn of the century to about 1960 is fair game.

    The Hattery Katoomba, AU

    Dang! This is a great thread! I've bought two Akubras from The Hattery (Stylemaster and Stingy Brim), and always wanted to see the store in person. I'd love to be able to try on Akubras before buying them. I do have to say that they two Akubras I bought from them were two of the best...
