English Walkers (Shoes)
Tried your link to limmer. Could not find the wing tips, just some ulgy walker types. I had several pair of British Walkers when in high school and college in the 60's. Fine shoes wish I could find them now.- jkingrph

Custom Allen Edmonds "Chestnut" Spectator Wingtips
Those look great! I had a pair by a company years ago called British Walker, well made, but had so much trouble in my youth keeping the white vamp clean that I finally dyed them to match the rest of the shoe.

Military Hat Photos
Absolutely, when I completed Officers Training School (OTS) and upon the oath of office, everyone threw his hat into the air. If you did not have your name inside it was a problem. Also helped claiming your hat at the O club esp at some of the formal occasions when almost eveyone was somewhat... -
For your consideration: The comeback of the hat?
Personally, I prefer a wider brim and am looking for a fedora similar to that that Jeff Bridges wore in Seabiscuit. It had a wider brim and a narrow ribbon hatband. -

Hats in the rain
Prefer a hat, especially when carrying anything else. I spent 10 years active duty in Air Force and umbrellas were not allowed then. The flight caps were worthless in rain and the round dress cap with short bill was marginally better. For rain get a wide brim. I have a few western Stetsons... -
