Courage to Wear a Fedora
If you are a hick in the sticks as am I, perhaps a thin ribbon is a solution. It has more casual/rural/working class associations. Less pretension (lacking a better word), perhaps. Hank, Woody & such, just a thought. If your bean is small enough, go for vintage, imo. :welcome:At any rate...- Rick Blaine

YOUNG I.J. Hat
Didn't know where else this might go? If it were a size larger, I'd get it for myself, I have done previous hat buying from the seller & he has always been righteous in dealings with me. FWIW [huh]- Rick Blaine

I want a cool cloth hat...any ideas
The above may look like, but is not, oilskin It is a cotton/poly blend. Sort of a canvas material. Cheap. Not especially light or breathable, the dark color may be a poor choice for full sun too. The brim is wired, I've only had it for a few weeks. So far so good. I would also endorse Tilly...- Rick Blaine

WATHNE (?) Tweed Hacking Jacket, belted action back, Surgeon's cuffs, throat tab
That's cool. EVERYONE wants to be Mick or Keef', no one wants to be Ron or Charlie or Bill, eh? Or, God forbid, Brian. The auction copy states it's Italian. It looked like high ticket for peanuts, we'll see.- Rick Blaine

WATHNE (?) Tweed Hacking Jacket, belted action back, Surgeon's cuffs, throat tab
The poof wearing a popped collar, French cuffs & an oversize cravat with a c. '88 Robert Smith wig, does not help that perception. "An' here all me pyrite shirts be at the dry cleaners, aaarrrr"!- Rick Blaine

Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest
Are we in a slump? When a forty year old (conservatively) unworn, NOS, vintage Shudde Bros 7 1/2 L0 OR can't fetch the cost of a woolie, ya' gotta wonder. Bad time of the month to sell too, I guess might have worked against it as well. An anomaly perhaps, but from here it looks like a...- Rick Blaine
