Help with {date or identify} a hat please.....!
Also, the movie star traits Depp possesses makes that exact hat look a precise way. I mean he's got a white vest w pocket square here, and a peacoat and scarves there. Think of your own style and function while you're on your hat journey. -
Help with {date or identify} a hat please.....!
I've had a couple '50s Stetsons that could hold their brim shaped any way you'd snap them. It's not a trait you will find on every fedora you handle. I'm sure these gentlemen will point you in the right direction. Good luck. -
Hat Cleaning Repair & Restoration: Where?
I definitely can believe that there are few old school hatters, even in metro areas. For instance, I was so excited to go to Goorin Brothers in Denver since I was in town maybe 8, 9 years ago. Shortly after arriving at the century old hat shop, I discovered they didn't carry felt hats anymore... -
Footwear to go with our jackets
Yes. There is a chance I won't wake up tomorrow, but I'm gonna wear a nice suit and we'll made shoes every time I have an excuse. Even custom made, expensive shoes. Bring on the quality. Life is short.- Monte

Footwear to go with our jackets
You know I love my boots, but I just ordered these Beckett Simonon double monks in a Bordeaux color. They batch make them. I think they're slated to arrive in November. They'll be my early Christmas gift... to me.- Monte

Footwear to go with our jackets
Nice contrast on that Heritage pair. I've included my burgundy Jay Butler loafers, my Anderson Bean (Texas) boots, and finally my Guess vintage jacket. The jacket was a found item for 35 or 40 clams.- Monte

Post New Hats Here!
I think I've seen a lot, and then this gem is gets some light shed on it. A 3/8 no less. Very nice. Thanks for sharing the hat and the research. -
New wool offering from Aero!
I like the idea of this better than what I am seeing. I've seen Schaefer wool jackets with leather collar and sleeves that I'd sooner wear. I'm sure it is a quality jacket but looks off to me.- Monte

How to travel with hats
If you wear it, an airport employee will have you remove it and they'll touch it and check under the sweat. It is unpleasant but should not damage it to speak of. -

What do you think about my new AERO
I think it fits great in the shoulder and sleeve. That's usually the hard part. Length looks really natural, creating a kind of fitted look. It's good quality, timeless style, and it fits great. Win, win.- Monte

setting a hat down: brim up or brim down?
Hi. Not sure how you do it but for me,, Stacking a hat inside a sweatband of another hat calls for some layer of protection I have found. Sweat lines are difficult to remove. -

Johnny Depp Fedora
Well, I feel I could soil other garments which exist closer to the ground. Shoes, jeans, shirts. Trying to keep these alive is a job to itself. -

Western, anyone?
Not a golden era hat but it's at least a few decades aged. Pairing with my Anderson Beans. -

Western, anyone?
From the front that crease looks a lot like a mouth, like the sorting hat from the H. Potter films. Maybe you could sort cattle at the auction ring. "Hmm, nice, choice steer. Better beee.... a dollar! Sold!" -
Johnny Depp Fedora
Yes. Back then kids were still eating around the diningroom table and taught manners. And more importantly, etiquette. A firm handshake is good but never touch a man's hat or step on his shoes. Take care of your new school and church clothes. Wearing patched pants and hats with holes was... -
Johnny Depp Fedora
I saw a rodeo cowboy bend down, grab a handful of dirt from the arena floor, and commence to rub it all over his new, black hat. I thought he was doing the opposite of what a normal person would, which would be to brush off the dirt on a new, expensive western.
