    What's the point of Taper?

    I asked this over on COW, but on second thought maybe you guys might be more knowledgable. I have a Raider's AB with the typical tight pinch. This model does not have a taper in the crown and to my eye does not. But the combination of tight pinch and high crown I'm concerned it makes my head...

    The Vig

    Okay, so I've watched a LOT of movies, and in several of them I hear actors talking about "the vig". Take for instance this evening: I'm (re)watching Carnivale, and one of the actors says something to the effect of "You owe me $400 for the vig on top of the principle". So what does "the vig"...

    Dave Brown Hats

    Has anyone had a hat made by Dave Brown Hats? Evidentally he's a major player for Hollywood films, having made hats for Road to Perdition, Last Man Standing, Chicago, etc. If any member can speak to general customer service, hat quality, etc, that would be swell. Regards! Vintage

    Indy Fedora AND Jacket??

    Personally I live in my Bill's Khakis, and in colder weather I usually wear my G&B Indy Jacket as well. But I've found that wearing the jacket, khaki's, AND a fedora ( not to mention Aldens) just feels too much like a costume, so I usually only wear a fedora with a suit. So, let's take a poll...

    Double Shoulder Holster

    This is my first post, so forgive me if it's not in the proper forum. I'm looking to have a reproduction made of Bruce Willis' double shoulder holster that he used in the 30's period movie Last Man Standing. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I'm a stickler for quality and attention...
