    New To The Lounge With a Question...

    Oh, no! That's terrible. Isn't that the one where I got the Selentino?

    New To The Lounge With a Question...

    Well, I see you're in Philly. There are several hat shops in town. Since giving us a photo isn't possible visit them (if you haven't already). Try on similar styles to see how they look. As for the models you named, and your question... I think Borsalinos are overpriced for what you...

    WTB: Tweed Jacket, size 50 Regular

    Well, I'm in the market for a tweed jacket, and it ain't easy finding one in my size without looking in some expensive places. A 50 regular fits me fairly well, as long as it's not a trim-fit sort of thing that gets narrower around the stomach. I'd prefer colors in the brown/olive/russet...

    The Black Hat Brigade

    Missed that one, but I was aiming for something all-inclusive, anyway. Not vintage-centric. Torpedo, that Whippet is to die for! Wow.

    Wested Raiders Jacket, Size 50 - On Ebay

    I have moved my jacket to Ebay. Here's a link for anyone interested. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330358978871&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT#ht_500wt_1125

    Too much damage?

    I think Hatsdirect will cover the shipping and exchange the hat. While the hat can certainly take the abuse, you didn't pay for a pre-crushed hat, and I'm sure hatsdirect is well aware of this sort of thing happening from time to time.

    The Black Hat Brigade

    You know, it occurs to me that, while we often discuss the relative pros and cons of black hats, I can't find any threads that are really a show-case for them. So, in the spirit of other hat-type societies on the lounge, I invite you to join the The Black Hat Brigade! Share your love of...

    I'm considering it, but my CD player may need replacing if it can't be fixed. If I can avoid that expense, I'll be dropping you a PM next week. (But don't hold it just for me, by any means).

    Hats in the rain, do they bleed so to speak?

    In my experience, once a bleeder - always a bleeder. [huh] I'm not saying that all the color will come out of the hat. Just that it's going to take a heck of a lot of wetting to reach the point where it doesn't bleed onto your head or hands anymore. Which is what I'd be trying to avoid to...

    Well, I don't have my CD anymore, but my Fed III had the same open crown height. I think I tested the possibilities when I did this to it...

    Newsboy Cap Brims: To Curve, Or Not To Curve?

    Usually, yes. But not consistently the same way.

    I probably asked this the last time it was up, but with my memory I could be thinking of a totally different hat. Do you have the actual measurement of the sweatband? Or your head measurement and a description of how it feels on your head?

    Tell me about Harris Tweed?

    I said they were the most sought after tweed... which is relative to the demand of tweed in the first place. Got any size 50's looking for a new home? :D

    Newsboy Cap Brims: To Curve, Or Not To Curve?

    Yep. No steam needed! I'm waiting on my third!

    Tell me about Harris Tweed?

    I would say that Harris tweed is the most sought after, and probably the implied tweed that period movies aim for, including Indiana Jones.

    NEWS BOY CAPS

    I just received news that Hatpeople are going to attempt making a cap out of a houndstooth jacket I sent them. The jacket looked dreadful on me and nobody wanted it, even for free. But the wool was so nice and the colors fantastic. I can hardly wait! :fing28:

    When Fedoras ruled

    Now, a different crowd would have probably said something about the field not looking right, huh? lol I love this shot. I also notice that the hats seem to clash on the dark/light scale mainly with the guys in overcoats, but the guys without seem to have lighter jackets on with their...

    Newsboy Cap Brims: To Curve, Or Not To Curve?

    I may have to try that on my Hanna. That thing just won't curve! My favorite caps don't actually have anything but more fabric in the brim, so they do whatever I want, when I want. [huh]

    In honor of the the Big H's birthday, I wore this yesterday. Even though I never left home.
