    Ask a question, get an answer

    I have a Tapatalk question. I have a second phone that I keep charged but don't have a SIM card in. I use it like a mini tablet and kindle reader. While home, tethered to WI-Fi, it works for everything except calls and texts. Tapatalk does seem to speed up FL navigation on android so I decided...

    Where's all this intolerance coming from??

    I'm not sure what the Bartenders removed, or exactly where the line of acceptable lies, but I believe your analysis is spot on. Some ugly things can come from this forced diversity and hierarchy of victimhood. My son in law has joined the Alt Right, white nationalist, movement. It breaks my...

    I did look closely after my first impression that it was a straw. You you don't think that's how they might have sewn it? Eric posted one stitched that way in WHAYWT. He wore his out in -23 c degree weather and froze his head. I think it's a clever way to vent a summer felt.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    I decided to wear this classic Bowler from Hersey, out of Plainfield NJ, today. It's an interesting hat that seems to have been made of 2 parts, crown and brim. Thin and stiff. The sweat needs restitching, but it should be easy because the bottom of the crown creates a small ridge to sew...

    I figure they probably do that with a machine for spiral straws.

    That's a great hat, Eric. Is that a weave, or a stitched detail, like Daniele's green Barbisio? It's a pretty cool way to vent felt for SUMMER wear. :-)

    I remember someone else sharing a hat stitched that way quite a few months back. It must be done with a machine used for braided straws. At first glance I thought I was looking at a Milan.

    You've got good thrift stores in your neck of the woods. In all of my thrifting, I don't believe I've seen a single hat for under 99 cents, and even .99 would be very rare, probably straw or cloth. The big chain ones, Goodwill, DAV and ARC, are serious about making money for their respective...

    My stingy Fedoras get very little head time, so I know what you mean.

    That's a very interesting hat. Velvet is an English word. Is it also part of the Italian language?

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    One of my two Chapeaux Moderne's. I can't find much information about these, but this one shapes like playdough. Putty in my hands. It's a featherweight.
