Black Suits?
I believe "back in the day" that black suits were common. The Sears Roebuck catalog sold them in heavy wool, and they were referred to as "Sunday" suits. -

American Gangster
I thought the film very good. Too bad Denzel and Russ didn't have more interaction. I read they got their scene, together in prison, on the first take!- vintage68

Thompson M1A1
I fired one a few years ago when I worked for the FBI. Now, I'm a big strong guy at 6 feet 235 lbs. It was very heavy but when I fired it on full auto the thing had noticeable lift. If I hadn't been warned ahead of time the barrel would have gone straight up and knocked me on my tukus. -

Western hats
Just wanted to add my two cents and comment on Rooster's look. Being a westerner myself, now consigned to live in Florida while I take care of aging in-laws, I wear my jaxonbilt cavalry hat most days while working around the house and taking care of our horses... -
To all Indy hat wearers! ...
I might wear my Gibson & Barnes, but not my AB. No place to keep a lid except on my head and that might be rude to those behind me.... -
Gone Country?
You're welcome. What is the Fedora Lounge for expect to turn fellow enthusiasts on to cool little shops and other people?! Check out Jaxonbilt Hat Co for another quality operation. Just have plenty of patience since he's very much in demand. -
Gone Country?
Another great hatter I've come across is this guy: http://www.jaxonbilthats.com/index.php I received the Cavalry hat a couple of months ago and the quality is first rate. He's very popular so he's very busy, so expect to wait the better part of a year. -

adventurebilt indy
Ordered a lid Dec. 19, 2006 and was told about three weeks ago I can expect it by the end of the year. His schedule is slowly returning to normal now after doing Indy 4, but watch out after the movie comes out.... -
Young Indiana Jones
The first two discs arrived from Netflix today. I plan to watch them over the weekend. I had forgotten about the very young Indy Jones. I assumed it would be the older teenage actor. Ah well, I'm looking forward to it nonetheless...- vintage68

Mallory's Everest jacket: gussets out there today?
That's intriguing, I would have thought the heavy wool and cottons would have held moisture and persperation like there was no tomorrow. What about the leather boots?!- vintage68

Anyone done business with J.L. Powell?
I work as a writer in advertising, and I gotta say that the copywriting in Powell's catalog just rocks. If you don't buy anything from them and appreciate good ad copy you should request to be put on their mailing list. Brief example: "These trousers....are beautifully crafted and equally... -
Anyone done business with J.L. Powell?
I'm sure Fawcett lids are great, it's just that I saw this hat and additional pictures in the catalog and thought it was almost exactly what I looking for in terms of shape, color, etc. -

Boxing films
"How would you folks react to a gritty boxing TV series? You know, on HBO, Showtime - definitely a cable piece. Something you might watch?" +1 for me. I'd watch it. Would it be a period piece or modern?- vintage68

Anyone see The Hurricane with Denzel Washington? I read an interview with him in Men's Vogue, probably the best men's magazine out there, and it made me want to rent it.- vintage68

Anyone done business with J.L. Powell?
On their website they list the Montana Drover Hat: http://jlpowellusa.com/product/38_41-Accessories/265-J-L-Powell-Montana-Drover-Hat.html For the price it seems a bit steep, but it looks nicer in the catalog than on the web. I was thinking I might go for it but was wondering if anyone... -
Young Indiana Jones

If you're up in Canada there's a company I've done business with that makes a lot of hats for western films, among them Lonesome Dove. Check these guys out: http://www.thelastbestwest.com/cowboy_hats.htm They even have a section on the website called Masters of Rodeo with rodeo specific lids...
