Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest
Yeah, I feel you regarding the resizing (I prefer that term to "destruction") of a hat in good condition with a few strict exceptions. For example, if I am absolutely sure I will not be reselling a hat, I don't mind resizing it keeping all things original except the sweatband. For me, this...- blueAZNmonkey

Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest
If I were in your position, I'd practice reblocking hats to a bigger size. This is a really good option if you're not hellbent on keeping original sweatbands. I've reblocked a few 6 3/4's and 7's to size 7 1/4. It's odd but in my experience the brim width doesn't actually change very much, even...- blueAZNmonkey

What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?
Agreed. Although I must say, the problem most of the guys have with the change is that we aren't commandos haha. Plus the theme of the order has always been nautical, rather than infantry. I've seen some funny zingers on social media about the update: "Boy Scouts of Columbus," "Knights of the...- blueAZNmonkey

I will definitely miss the cape. But there are two things fundamentally wrong with the old uniform: the chapeux is bollucks and the tuxedo jacket is a two-button, notch lapel. My semiformal jacket rule is one button, shawl or peak lapel. The KofC "tux" feels like a business suit with satin trim...- blueAZNmonkey

This is sort of a "hat I'm wearing today" post. Just found out the Knights of Columbus changed our fourth degree uniforms from this: to this: Whilst this is causing some controversy among the elder sirs, is it bad that mind goes to: "Nice! Now I can add a beret to the collection!" ? Also...- blueAZNmonkey
