    I'll take it. PMing you now.

    I just added the Old West leather hatband. Kind of a splurge, but what the hell.

    THE SUNBODY ASSOCIATION

    I just ordered the oak-colored hat with a 2 3/4 brim. They're going to take one of their 4" brims and cut it down and bind it. I also requested a diamond bash. It's going to take a week or so because they're waiting for a shipment of the larger sizes next week, but that's fine. Price was about...

    That looks great on you. Give it a little time and I'll bet the color of the straw just gets better and better. If I could get them to do that hat with just a little more brim I'd be a happy man. Cheers.

    THE SUNBODY ASSOCIATION

    That's a nice little hat, but I've found very few of the type we're discussing: Stetson makes a couple but not in my size; Borsalino has two or tree, but they're all center-dent with too much taper, never mind the cost (same with Tesi). Pretty much everything else I've seen is either too flimsy...

    Zombie, the 3" brim is pretty big. I'll keep you posted after I get in touch with Jimmy this week and ask him about the 2 3/4" oak-colored fedora. What I'm looking for is simply that color in the same style as the 3" one. I'm hoping this hat would have the same properties with regard to water as...

    I remember that we discussed this a short while back, but I didn't see a larger-brimmed oak-colored straw. I'll give him a call this week. Thanks for your help.

    Musician's hats

    There's a line in "Nadine" that goes "Downtown searchin' for her, lookin' all around, saw her gettin' in a yellow cab headin' uptown." When I was 12 y.o. I was listening to that and heard him doing this weird riff starting with the word "headin'". Coolest thing I'd ever heard. I must have...

    I sincerely wish they'd do an oak-colored fedora with a 2 3/4 brim. The 2 1/2 just doesn't cut it for me with the tropical sun.

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Could you make me a bong, dude?

    THE SUNBODY ASSOCIATION

    Hey, Zombie, I've had the three-inch brim for some time now and wear it all the time. First, go with your regular size: they have cloth sweatbands and don't really shrink that much. Mine arrived a tiny bit large and hasn't changed too much although it's seen a lot of service. Shaping is one of...

    Spring jacket time!

    Nice jacket. If it was originally from Barney's (at least from the last 30 years) it must have cost a fortune. I used to live a couple of blocks from them when they were on 7th Ave., and I remember that they were one of the first stores to dramatically present their goods and then charge...

    Northwest Hats, Eugene, Ore.

    Ha! That's exactly what they're for. I see them all over the place down here.

    Hi, Cindy, yes, I have two pairs: brown Presidents and Midnight Suede Captains. Great boots and a good buy.

    That leather looks very nice indeed and will just get nicer. Congrats.

    Spring jacket time!

    Actually, this is a good time of year to stock up on heavier jackets. I just picked up a very nice, dark navy corduroy jacket from J Crew (so shoot me) for about $80.00: trim fit with high armholes.

    Obama's leather jacket.

    Funny how exhausted that waspish, dandyish critical tone has become.

    M.C. Gannon Hat Company

    NB: Just thought I'd mention that the artist, Robert Crumb, was one of the first people I ever heard of who dressed completely in vintage clothes, and he still does. He also amassed one of the world's finest private collections of early jazz recordings and did a number of fine portraits of those...

    I just got home from work and have the flu that's going around. I'll see if I can post some pics tomorrow.
