    Starting a New Position - To Hat or Not to Hat?

    I'll have to agree with casechopper. You wore your hat to both of your interviews, you got the job, keep on wearing those hats. You're right, a hat does establish your presence and your identity. When I dare go out bare headed, I'm always asked, "Johnny where's your hat?" Then they'll say, "You...

    My Allen Edmonds Dalton Boot Dye Experiment!

    Moonshine, you did a great job with your Dalton color change! I wish I'd thought of it myself and taken advantage of the lower price of the gray color. I've got a pair of AE Cordovan Daltons, bought before they got as expensive as they are now, love em! Like you say, they are a very comfortable...

    Rabbit, you've got a fantastic talent and a fantastic collection of VS hats and the knowhow to match them perfectly with your suitings. The dove VS is a great color I agree. Don't have one yet, going to get it ordered. You do a great job with your collages, I've learned a lot from them: Thank...

    Thanks guys for those answers. That's what I was looking for, personal experience. I'm going to order that Dove in ArtLite now that spring is around the corner here in Kentucky.

    Hey Rabbit, thank you much for those thread links. I appreciate it. I'm giving some serious consideration to commissioning an Art Lite in Dove pretty soon if available. You've done a great job putting your collection together and it's a great collection. How does the light weight felt compare...

    hatsRme; To catch you up on my hat, Tim noticed some off color splotches on the hat body he was making my latest creation out of. He scrapped that one, called Winchester and ordered some more bodies. So now he's waiting on a replacement body so he can start over. My noggin is a big ol melon! 24...

    Casechopper, yes, Tim has my hat on the block now, actually I don't know if my hat's on the block now but it is in the process. It's a dark gray beaver, tall crown with a 2 3/4 brim. As soon as I can talk with Tim, I'm going let him know about the bow. He's going to use a 1 1/2" silver gray...

    Casechopper; I agree, the frayed edge ribbon did come out very nicely! This is the first example of it I've seen and I really like what it adds to the overall look of the hat. Tim suggested I look at yours the other day when we were talking about the hat he's working on for me. The hat looks...

    Vintage Lace, fine looking hat!! I know it'll look great on you too! Tim does fine work. Thanks to all for the good comments. I made a miss lick on the keyboard when answering Landman on brim width, sorry! It is 2 1/2", not 2 1/4. After wearing a Campdraft with that 2 7/8" brim, this one looks...

    Hello Landman, this brim is only 2 1/4"! It's the narrowest brim I own or have ever owned. To be honest I'm surprised at how it looks, I think the tall straight crown off sets the narrow brim dimension, like you said in a previous post. Tim is working on a granite for me now, it will have my...

    Hey TomS, I just got a box from Tim yesterday. A well made pecan beaver! I'll get pics up hopefully tomorrow. If I don't get them up tomorrow, it may be a while. I've got hip replacement surgery Monday! Going to wear my newest Cane's Creation to the hospital! Tim is making hats, he's working on...

    Allen Edmonds:How many??

    Got seven so far. Been collecting them for several years; Park Avenue, Dalton, Macalister, Bayfield, Yuma, and 2 older pairs of a casual shoe that I cant remember the name of. I really like AE shoes, for the money they are the best to be had in my humble opinion. Good stuff and their customer...
