How many hats do you have?
This year I think I'll go through the pile, see what fits well and sell off the remainder. Then I read grey bowler (don't have one of those) and see that Stetson on the fence post and I guess I can sell off what doesn't fit well and buy more. This is a very dangerous site! -

“WTF’ Hats,” that are hard to believe...
I now have incontrovertible proof that the Vikings sacked a portion of both Spain AND England. -
How many hats do you have?
I was only looking for 4 (bowler, top hat, fedora, homburg) but it may be close to 100. They reproduce like cockroaches is the only explanation I can think of. -

You know you are getting old when:
You make a pot of Tuna Glop (macaroni and cheese, garbonzo beans, peas, corn, tuna, mustard) and eat half a bowl of it and keep thinking it tastes funny. Then you realize you only made a bowl of Glop, you forgot to put the tuna in there.- SteveFord

OTHER THAN eBAY Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest
That's exactly what I was thinking. Between the Champ and this dusty Stetson I'm doing pretty well in the inexpensive hats department recently. I smell another $10 derby coming up... -
OTHER THAN eBAY Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest
Seller says wool, I'm not so sure but guess I'll find out. Obviously a clearance item for next to nothing so why not. -
Vehicles owned by Outerwear members?
Triumph triples for me. Most of these have hard bags and top cases but may not be pictured, that stuff takes up a lot of room in the garage. Action shot of Tiger shooting out excess coolant following a rebuild while dog wonders if I know what I'm doing...- SteveFord

Why Should I Buy A Vanson?
Now that you mention it, I recall something about imports and Vanson. What I should have said is all three of my jackets and my one pair of pants are made in the USA and are the competition weight. You'd probably want one of their mesh jackets for Florida? I know what else I can add: with the...- SteveFord

What hat are you waiting for today?
I'm looking forward to seeing that Champ, with shipping it was about 1 1/2 tanks of gas in my motorcycle. I'm old and cheap and so are my hats. -
What hat are you waiting for today?
I really wasn't expecting to buy two hats this year (let alone in one day) but here comes a Champ! -
Why Should I Buy A Vanson?
Why by a Vanson? They're made in US, they're made for motorcyclists and they'll outlast you. I've had mine for years. I have 3 Vanson and one Fox Creek jacket, one set of Vanson pants, one set of Fox Creek. The leather in Fox Creek is much more supple, other than that they both seem to be about...- SteveFord

What hat are you waiting for today?
I'm not sure what got into me but I decided to buy a new Whippet. I have an older one (sitting on a bike) so it looks like they changed quite a bit over the ensuing decades. -
How do folks react to your hat wearing?
A few pages back someone mentioned an anti-fedora sentiment? This one guy at work didn't think I could hear him and he said to someone else, "Here comes Steve with his hat" so I walked up and said "Here's Steve and here's my hat!" I figure the locals aren't dressing to please me so why should I... -
Show us your motorcycles!
Oh, boy, that's really bad. Mine came with these little locking washers with a forked (?) tab that went into the fins and a tab that went around the flange. They'd sit there, rattling away. I never lost a sidecover but I did have the front master cylinder cap vibrate nearly all the way off...- SteveFord

Show us your motorcycles!
The Snortin' Norton does have that exhaust note which kind of makes you want to see how far the throttle twists back so I can appreciate your position. That one looks to be all there, too. Aside from the bars and the crunched stuff on the back it looks really clean. Your son certainly looks...- SteveFord

I had a 73 Roadster when I was 18 years old. That thing got me in more trouble but it sure is a fun motorcycle. Keep us posted on the restoration, please.- SteveFord
