    Eric, Thanks for sending over the dimensions and your insight into Winchester felts. I just browsed Art's website, and the color choices make the decision process even more...daunting. I'm aiming to reproduce a 40s Whippet (without the vintage price tag) in the color scheme below. I was...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    50's Strat. I'm almost exclusively a brims-up guy, but this one begs for a traditional treatment. The lid is an eBay find that just showed up today. Liner and band have been replaced (sorry purists), but the felt is in pristine condition. It's features heavy, heavy grey undertones for a...

    Beautiful, Eric. Do you mind sharing the crown/brim dimensions? Yours is SPOT ON.

    Moon, how did you correspond with Michael? Via Etsy? He doesn't seem to have a website or contact info listed elsewhere. I'm eyeing a Whippet treatment with vintage dimensions in the Silvermist color. Yum.

    Kona, I've seen a bunch of your lids since joining The Lounge, and they always have my favorite brim treatment: perfectly uniform, not quite flat with a very subtle flange, etc. Mind sharing your secret(s) with us mere mortals?

    Musician's hats

    Posting this here because I'm far to lazy to dig around previous posts, and the pic was taken at a philanthropic event including members from the Hollywood Vampires. So, technically this is a post about a "musician." Depp has been sporting this lid throughout 2016, and it seems to be the new...

    stetson x buck mason

    The only lid I don't have in my rotation is black, and I'm partial to vintage ORs/Strats, so...I'm considering the black Ellum. Hell, they accept returns if it ends up a bust. For what it's worth, the flatter brim that TheDane points out is actually a plus for me — it helps to make a Strat's...

    stetson x buck mason

    Anyone get their paws on one of these yet? https://www.buckmason.com/stetson-x-buckmason The Ellum appears to be a rebadged Stratoliner in beaver. I'm digging the finish (at least what's shown in the pics).

    Would an Akubra Campdraft work in big city business?

    Edward's math is spot on.

    Hatco catalogs

    Thanks Fruno. I keep trying to give Stetson the benefit of the doubt, but similar stories keep arising for anything not off the shelf. My main motivation for a lid these days is a 6" crown (I'm tall, anything less looks "dainty"), which instantly limits my (our) options with Stetson. I'm not...

    Hatco catalogs

    Moon, you've hinted at an affinity for JJ Hat Co in the past — my favorite hat hut — but they've been hesitant to place any custom orders from Stetson for me in the past. For example, they had me order a Racine a few months back directly from Stetson, have it shipped to my place, then across...

    Fruno, thanks! I have to have it. You've officially reached bad influence status, the highest compliment I can give on this forum. Will reach out to DelMonico in the upcoming week or two.

    Fruno, do you have a pic of the light grey Stetsonian that you can post? I'm suuuuuuuper curious about its "light'ness." Thanks, - m

    what do you do ...?

    Replace "horrible" with "cult-classic," and I'll admit to Detroit Rock City being one of my favorite flicks as a teenager.
