Would This Hat Fit Me?
While looking for Stetson Gun Clubs, I found this one on eBay. However, it is size 7 1/4, and I am 7 1/2. However, My 7 1/2 hat seems a tad too big (it's an extremely small space between my head, and the hat.) My head is 23" around. Would 7 1/4 fit? I always cock my hat to an extreme angle, and...- Retro Spectator

How to Tell if a Thrift Store Tie is Vintage?
I may have asked this question before, but I was wondering, how do you tell how old a tie is without bringing a measuring tape with you? As I have never owned a vintage tie, I do not know how thick they are. I hear that the labels are in different places, but I wonder, do 60s ties have labels in...- Retro Spectator

Post New Hats Here!
Today, I converted another hat. I converted a crushable Minnetonka hat similar to this one, but brown. I cut the brim down to 1 3/4". I also curled the brim in cold water. I also reshaped the crown, and changed the ribbon. I wish there was a way to harden crushable hats.- Retro Spectator

Vintage Dobbs Trilby
I don't know much about hats, but I would assume it's from the late 50s, or the early 60s. I don't actually think that's a trilby. I believe that type of hat is known as a stingy brim fedora. It has a rather fat ribbon, which I could be wrong, but I believe were very popular in the late 50s, and...- Retro Spectator

Post New Hats Here!
I won't exactly call this a new hat, but I just modified it. Yesterday, I experimented on an old, mangled, Scala panama. It originally was similar to this hat (mine was not that pricey.) However, my one was all mangled, and bent, as if one sat on it. So I decided to experiment on it. I cut...- Retro Spectator
