    Post New Hats Here!

    Still shaping the homburg a bit...they definitely want to curl up. It's cooling down on my head this time before it goes back in the box.

    Thanks for the positive comments. It really fits perfectly...better than most I own and way better than my custom made, turtle shell-like excuse for a hat. I didn't mention the felt on the Williams but it is nice and soft and allowed me to steam the kinks out well. I was also nervous 'cause my...

    Case, sure does look to be in perfect shape, especially without the cattlemens crease. I picked up this little number which arrived today (I've never used ebay before and I just need this hat). Was listed as a vintage fedora-but surprise!-it's what I've been wanting...a homburg. Williams and...

    Excuse me if my days are all mixed up. Eric, nice pics the other day! Mayserwegener, that Habig is a great one in your collection. I need to join the "nation" soon. Bowler, I like the thin ribbon too. Al, loved your pics and great Palm Beach jacket--very sharp. I am always saying, "Hey, this...

    The Dobbs Diner...

    Rogera, wow, nice vintage find. I have no answers... but I have two ties (at least) that would work well with that lid.

    Hatophile and Case, a bit similar on your hats and ties. They look really great. Alan, nice shots w your dad. I am surprised to see you taller than he because my dad was always such a big guy, even now at 79. I still wouldn't want to tangle w him! Eric, really serene mood there...we hope to...

    Hatfields and Mcoys

    Probably meant to be a customized Boss of the Plains by Stetson. The open crown isn't really low until you put a crease in it and the wide brim gives the illusion that the crown is lower than it is. That hat was designed in 1865 by John B. Stetson for the demands of the American west. The felt...

    Nice pics gentlemen. Just getting ready to go to an antique auction...hope the competition is more tired than I am and doesn't bid everything through the roof. Choice of hat -- undetermined. Justin, it is neat to see a hat you have in an old ad. The sad thing is the old prices.

    Eric, If I was half as well hatted as you I'd be set. Thanks for the reply.

    Very cool pattern & looks to be well preserved for a '30s cap. I love the proportions.

    Nice assortment of hats lately. You all look well hatted. We just had a record breaking snow storm for one day snowfall and for the month as well. I won't bother to show off my trucker's hat with hood over the top. I'm ready for the weekend and fairer skies.

    Delectans, really great, iconic shots. Jeff, we're gettin' slammed this wknd. Justin, nice candid. Me at the local restaurant/lounge, which used to be an old hotel across from a train depot. The hotel is now housing (bar and restaurant remain) and the depot is restaurant and bar. Remembering all...

    Show us your suits

    Cool, I found my pinstriped, navy blue suit at the Goodwill on my street. I didn't even have to alter it, which is always a surprise because I'm a 42 XL. It's not really a super old suit but I like the cut.

    Just not wearing the mid to late '60s Dobbs because at 7 5/8, it's two sizes too big. Oh well, the hat picks the man sometimes.

    AnA, glad you had a fun trip and a safe return. Those kids look like they were entranced. Alan, way to own that look. Neat to see your images behind you.
