    Akubra Overload

    I really can't say enough for the girls at HatsDirect and Sam at EA. Not only are they super-efficient, but there's always a human touch as well. Nice people.

    Vintage Polo Shirts

    They're very nice, but I should think you'd need a young, muscular physique to pull one off. I keep seeing myself in one with a pair of my dad's tartan golfing pants up to my armpits. I'm in good shape, but it's a younger man's garment.

    What Are You Reading

    Is that Polidori's The Vampyre? That was the origin of the handsome, seductive vampire and was based on Byron. I just lectured on it two weeks ago.

    Aerial Star gone?

    Headwind is giving it a shot, and I wish them all the luck in the world. It really is too bad about Aerial: there must be all kinds of snags that we fans know nothing about. Tough business.

    Himel Wolverine Grizzly Inbound!

    Your girlfriend's right. You definitely have your own look, and that jacket suits you perfectly. I'll bet it will blow you away. Cheers!

    Daniel, is that the Homburg?

    Montechristi Panamas: are these types of holes normal?

    I understand that the Pacific Northwest is quite the Place of Depravity (albeit a wet one). This would explain why AF chose to make his HQ there (please note his tell-tale proclivity for sporting that white straw at all times of the year). Typical.

    Montechristi Panamas: are these types of holes normal?

    Ha! My goal is to move to the Pacific Northwest.

    What Are You Reading

    One of the great things about living abroad is getting exposed to writers and artists that you probably would never have heard of. When I was living in Dublin many years ago, a friend gave me a copy of Flann O'Brien's The Third Policeman. I've just finished what must have been my fourth of fifth...

    Montechristi Panamas: are these types of holes normal?

    I've always had a sneaking suspicion that Art Fawcett was leading me down the road to perdition.

    Peters Brothers

    Thanks very much for the photos, fellows. I've got one in the works and am enjoying the anticipation a great deal. I've been feeling poorly the last few days, but the thought of the impending delivery cheers me up every time I think of it.

    Montechristi Panamas: are these types of holes normal?

    There's a time and a place for everything. I've had some memorable times in "Places of Depravity." Lead on.

    Montechristi Panamas: are these types of holes normal?

    It really is a matter of taste. A white Panama in Miami is also the sure sign of the tourist with money, and it can be seen from several blocks away.

    Musician's hats

    I can remember when The Monkees tv show first aired and they took a lot of flak from the music critics. Frank Zappa responded by saying that they were the best-produced band in the country. I thought about the implications of that and realized there were a lot of things I didn't know. Still, I'd...

    Musician's hats

    Let's not forget that while there was the Motown Sound, there was also the Memphis Sound: in fact, I can remember fistfights in my high school between partisans. Also, I've seen some articles on the Wrecking Crew recently that I believe were overstated. In one, the author included The Byrds as...

    Montechristi Panamas: are these types of holes normal?

    It's always seemed odd to me that the Panama is probably the last kind of straw you'd actually want for the Tropics. Turbulence is one of those areas of physics that no one understands, and this explains why weather reports in this part of the world are so laughable for most of the year. One...

    JJ Hat Center & Pork Pie Hatters NYC

    Is it possible that the Koskiusko's being confused with the Pulaski Skyway in the Meadowlands?

    Same here, and probably one of the best observations I've seen on this forum.

    Peters Brothers

    I'd have thought that Peters Bros. were the ultimate authority on the cattleman's crease. Didn't LBJ get his OR's there? Also, does the photo above show the crease before or after you tweaked it? It looks fine to me. Their hemp beats the hell out of Stetson's (imho).

    Tax refund, what jacket to get?

    Nick, The GW Ventura in black. It's you all over.
