Isn't a lil taper Stylin ???
Ah, the fun of Ethnic Slurs. I was more than a little shocked to see the word Dago used so flippantly. But then I put it aside assuming MAB was of a different nationality to me and as such followed different social norms. After all his profile says that he's from Cool Town and Dago might well...- ADHD librarian

The Borsalino Bellini
Akubras vary in thickness, I have several (as do my kids). The dress hats are a lot thinner and softer than the cowboy ones. But even amongst the cowboy ones there is variety. My thickest is an Arena, my cattleman is thinner and my stylemaster thinner again. But my son's Lancer is thinner (and...- ADHD librarian

You can take my freedom, but you'll never have my haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat

Feathers in your hatbands?

Now, living in Australia I get a nice choice of colourful feathers lying around from blues, reds and greens of the parrots to the yellows of cockatoos or the blue black of the...- ADHD librarian

Post New Hats Here!
I posted a link to this on another thread, but thought I'd put it up here too. It's my boy in his new Akubra Airstream. Which cost me the princely sum of $4.75. Sure it's in bad condition, but I've given it a brush and a wash and it's looking beter already.- ADHD librarian

Dating Your Hat (A Place to Discuss the Age of Your Vintage Hat)
I'm first Picked up this one today (for $4.75) It's a little large for my son, but will probably be his next hat (once we clean it up). Anyone care to guess its age? It's an Akubra Airstream Pocketweight. It has a very deep c-crown (and a small hole at the pinch) It is superfine felt... Oh...- ADHD librarian

The hats of our fathers
joining the chorus Don't hurt the hats, no, really. These are great hats, stuff some paper in the sweat or fold the leather over to make them wearable for you but neither of them deserve to be cut. Plus, neither of them will become fedoras. If you want a fedora look buy one and keep these...- ADHD librarian
