    Harv, that pic is like a pro shot. Selective focus, color grading, very nice. Hat ain't bad either.

    What hat are you waiting for today?

    I'd like to order from EverythingAustralian but I'm putting my house on the market. It would be my luck it sells right away and the new owner gets my hats in 3 months.

    JJ Hat Center & Pork Pie Hatters NYC

    They're fine. I always deal with Rod Springer at JJ. He's an older fellow, been in the business forever and can shoot the breeze like no other. Their prices are high but that has a lot to do with keeping a brick and mortar store in the middle of NYC. Between my wife and I we've bought more than...

    Are there any UK or European made stiff bowlers anymore?

    You picked a remarkably bad choice to make your point. I too have modern and vintage Borsalinos. I find the differences to be stark and many. Most importantly the felt is both thinner, denser and more finely pounced. The stitching on the ribbon is virtually inviseable and there is an hidden...

    A lot of folks here are going to recommend vintage. Nice ones are out there if you're patient and the quality will far surpass most anything you'll find today.

    What hat are you waiting for today?

    I'm waiting for this Stetson It says Open Road on the sweatband but I'm thinking it's not an early Open Road but rather, a mutt put together with a repalcement sweat. Still a cool hat. I'm thinking of giving it a Spencer Tracy, Joel McCrea kind of frumpy crease. Sometimes the hat has other...

    what kind of hat am I looking for ?

    if you haven't tried a silverbelly or other light colored felt hat, You might want to give that a spin before writing off felts all together. Last summer I experimented with wearing a silverbelly Akubra Camp Draft and an Open Road (often with the liners out). Turns out I don't sweat any more in...

    Sound advice, I think I'll take it. I hemmed and hawed on the Glen Grey color Hatsdirect had and now regret it. May have to get the Deluxe Moonstone.

    Looking great Java. I like seeing the Indy hat with non-Indy atire. And the Bluegrass green Camp Draft-I think you've convinced me I've got to get one. Hope I don't have to wait 3 months, they're out of size60.

    VMT, looks great. I'd guess 50's. There is a Dobbs guide but I can't locate it at the moment. As to price, size is key. A 7 1/2 is worth a lot more than a 7.
