    Stetson 100 to Optimo

    Thanks for the follow up. You earned a happy ending with your patience, and Graham lived up to what most folks think of him, even after allowing an inferior example of Optimo work to slip past him the first time. Congrats to both of you! :eusa_clap

    You Had It, But Sold It (and now You're Sorry)

    Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever sold anything. I'm damn good at buying stuff though. I have earmarked certain things around here for potential sale and filled a pretty large trunk with vintage hats, shoes, a letter sweater, shirts, etc. Maybe one day... :p

    Quirky Shirt Design?

    That could be. It does seem odd, however, that they are so long and that they are vertically oriented. I had a thought: These look like quite old garments. Obviously they are for use with detachable collars and you can see button holes where they can be fastened. Now, imagine a tuxedo...

    Here's some of mine... One of our cats has very good taste in hats. Likes my rollable Borsalino best: This shot of Indy in the Caribbean waters became one of the best avatars around: Then there was the pic of a younger gtDean being sworn in to the Men In Bonnets division of the...

    Post New Hats Here!

    Nice haul, Sue! :eusa_clap Now, tell me, does your mailman bust your chops about "another hat, huh?...". Back when I was buying from the Bay our guy used to tease me a little in a good natured way, of course. But I joked back that if he keeps it up I'll start collecting anvils! :D

    Help date these Florsheim shoes

    This is very interesting. Congrats on picking those up. I agree about old Florsheim quality. I have come to the conclusion that I like them the best of all the vintage or modern shoes I've encountered, including AEs, Nettletons, French Shriners, J&Ms and others. The look and feel of the...

    Post New Hats Here!

    Congrats to all on your new hats, and Merry Christmas! ------------ The other day, I found these caps in a thrift store. I bought these and several wooden coat hangers and the grand total was $4.28 :D . This first one's a Dobbs but not terribly old. My first panel cap. These...

    sports coat: good, bad or ugly?

    It's that 'poly' part that blows it for most coats from that era. Style-wise, that one looks pretty good. If it doesn't have that rough, double-knit, spun plastic feel about it then you're home free. :)

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    I've been laying low a few days - it was fun to catch up on your posts. The latest posts by Sue, Indy and Dee really impressed me a lot, but everyone and every hat is looking very good. :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap
