    Thurston Italian Vicenza Horsehide Full Grain Veg.-Tanned Horsehide for Aero Jackets

    Whew! You folks at Thurston have some mighty pretty leathers! I'm glad I'm going to be wearing one. I've been notified my fit jacket should be delivered tomorrow. Unfortunately, I won't be back to try it on until Thursday.

    THE MALLORY MILE

    And it's quickly become my favorite hat. I haven't worn it much, but that's because I'm traveling right now and it doesn't go with my attire. But of my small but growing collection of hats, it's the best fitting one, by far. Thanks, @Redfokker!

    Show us your SHOES !!!

    Always the contrarian, my shoes aren't shiny patent leather or buckskin suede supple. But they are considered by many to be "the most comfortable shoes in the world," with a price tag to match.

    Guitars

    Anyone have or know about the discontinued Fender 12-string Stratocaster? Someone asked about one on another forum, and as both a Fender aficionado as well as a 12-string fancier, I was intrigued. Then I spotted this beauty and my GAS went into overdrive...

    What hat are you waiting for today?

    According to the shipper, it's supposed to be delivered today. Except I'm off on business and won't be back until Thursday. Sterkowski Rabbit Felt Trilby.

    Post New Hats Here!

    Thanks! I agree. When a brim goes past 2-1/2 inches, a hat starts looking ridiculous on me! Earlier this year I bought a Stetson bush hat for a trip I was taking to the canyons of Utah. It looked so awful that I left it behind.

    Post New Hats Here!

    Thanks, Mike. This and the pork pie are meant to be "knock around" hats for me. You know, just something you throw on your head and don't care if it rains or blows. In fact, wearing them when it rains or blows is the whole idea!

    Post New Hats Here!

    It's a tad snug, but I think I can stretch it a skosh. I wanted something in the reddish family and I couldn't resist the price. A Bailey of Hollywood Chesley model. 2" snap brim in Oxblood.

    I'd say you're right. Gonna be on the lookout for 7-1/4 LO. I dunno where I find 'em, but I'll be looking. :D

    My new favorite hat, courtesy of my new BFF here, @Redfokker. A 1960s Mallory Eagle. Fits perfectly!

    What hat are you waiting for today?

    At just $31.31 (a $48.69 or 61% saving) I couldn't pass on this Bailey Chesley. I've been wanting something in the reddish tone, and this oxblood just spoke to me. Should arrive Saturday.

    What are you listening to?

    One of the replies on Youtube says, "[H]ow come I've never heard of this guy?!?! He does Jeff Beck better than Jeff Beck, holy ****!"

    What are you listening to?

    From a new release by a long-forgotten/ignored musician. I have an album by him dated 1994. His latest release was December 1.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Thank you, @DrMacabre. It appears I'm once again bucking trends. I see most people with wide brimmed hats, and I just kind of like throwing something on my head and forgetting about it. I don't like it with the brim up, but since it's a snap brim, I like it. I also answered my own question...

    Brightly-colored fedoras anyone?

    I'm going through a rust-russet-mahogany-oxblood-whatever phase right now. I have a hankering for a hat to match.

    Thurston Bros. - Official Affiliate Thread

    So I pulled the trigger today with Carrie at Thurston Bros., and the process begins to purchase an A-2 to my specifications. Carrie does indeed, take a lot of custom care, and seems quite intuitive. I'll be receiving a fit jacket and I've already given her my measurements. This is getting...
