    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Beautiful hat and kudos for the unusual color. That's a great jacket, as well. Mind if I ask the make?

    I'd be very interested in hearing your thoughts on the coat when it arrives. Cheers.

    Barbour / Alexander Leathers collaboration

    Looks like something that might have gone over big at the old Hellfire Club in NY. All that collar needs is a leash.

    How come with all these Old West bar photos thay always look like the music just stopped, conversations ceased, and everyone's looking at you? They remind me of the time I wandered into a lesbian bar in New Orleans: I gave 'em a Daffy Duck smile and scrammed pronto.

    Ebay scam

    Theft is a full-time job, and I'd imagine that these guys have their antennae out at all times. I doubt if it would be too hard to figure out what it is that people will spend good money for on the internet, but, like all other professions, some are better at it than others. I thought there was...

    Well, style you can not buy, style must have

    Good for you. I often wonder if the world really is being divided up into a very small minority of the rich and militantly chic on the one hand and a vast majority of poor slobs on the other. I'm not sure which side I dislike the most, as both feel that if you're not like them there's something...

    Well, style you can not buy, style must have

    Things have gotten to the point in this country that if you take any care whatsoever in your dress you are going to hear about it almost constantly. Whether the comments are gushingly positive or strangely negative ("Who the hell does this guy think he is?"), I sometimes feel that I've woken up...

    Nick, do I detect a Jerry Lee influence?

    Good for you. You're going to love that coat. Every time I go up to NY in winter I wear mine, particularly because I know I'll be spending a lot of time in the great freezing outdoors smoking cigs. I stand on my brother's deck and pretend I've got guard duty at the Russian front. I'll go with...

    Panama Hat Thread

    Thanks very much. I spoke to Mike some time ago, but he couldn't do a 7 7/8 because, as I remember, he didn't have the block for it. He's come quite a ways since then, so maybe he does now. I'll be calling him, as I'm now determined to seek out one of those hats. Sweet family you've got.

    Ah, now that's the way I like to remember it.

    Panama Hat Thread

    Fed, any other photos of that hat your wife is wearing? I've been through this page a couple of times, but (WADR) I missed the hat because I was bedazzled by the lady's beauty. Any idea where a hat like that might be obtained?

    BEAUTIFUL VINTAGE 1954 Tweed Jacket from The Andover Shop, Mass.

    That's a strikingly beautiful tweed. Alas, too large for this 38S weakling!

    How do folks react to your hat wearing?

    Here's an odd one. Last summer I transferred to the downtown campus of my college. One of the things I much prefer about my new department is that my colleagues tend to be rather on the quiet side and mind their own business. The other day, while I was entering my grades, I took off my hat and...

    Alley Kat Hat Co

    I am really blown away by the fact that Tim has gone out and gotten a block in my size. What better example could there be of the difference between a single artisan who cares about what he does and, well, Hatco.? Thank you, Tim.

    Help me pick another hat for my huge, round head ...

    The problem for me is that one lousy centimeter. 7 3/4 seems to be the limit for obtaining the vast majority of hats. At 63cm. I often can't even get hats from some custom hatters, though Tim at Alley Kat Hats recently went out and got a block in my size (for which I am truly thankful). I tried...

    Notice: Tweedydon has just posted one of the finest Loden coats to be found anywhere in the Classifieds. A gorgeous, warm coat with just a touch of military style at a ridiculously great price. I bought one thirty years ago and still wear it when I head up north in the winter.

    Post New Hats Here!

    The subtleties of the shades of many vintage felts are really extraordinary, and it's always interesting to see how a talented hatter or a sensitive customer can pick just the right ribbon to enhance those tints. I've been looking for some time for just this shade, which I first noticed on one...

    Absolutely beautiful. My next hat will be in that color.
