    Leather sweat band care?

    Thanks for the reply! Yeah, I was a tad concerned about those whiter blotches may have been mold or signs of dry rot but the leather actually does still feel like soft leather and there’s no smells or anything so it’s probably just fine. It does need a mild wipe down but it is probably the best...

    Leather sweat band care?

    So I have a fantastic little gray fedora, I suspect from the early ‘60s, with a nice boxy crown and a diamond bash. The whole hat seems in great shape. I do plan on replacing the liner just for the sake of cleanliness, luckily it’s glued in so not too hard to get out. Anyway, I was planning on...

    The Dobbs Diner...

    Yeah, it’s a nice looking hat and it appears to be fur felt but the listing has so little info I’m a bit weary.

    What Cap Are You Wearing Today?

    Your cap pic featuring the jaunty tip of the cap brim and swoop to one side reminds me of the Stetson Playboy advertising of old. Long time since college! I had a newsboy I wore all through high school and college before the poor thing finally wore out. Just remember, as we all know, the only...

    What Cap Are You Wearing Today?

    Thank you very much! When the wife says, “hey, you should wear newsboys more” it pays to listen! That cap is honestly becoming my favorite hat. Yeah, more drape to the crown would be nice but it just makes you happy to wear, if that makes sense.

    That diamond weave is really elegant, great stuff! I’m thinking about seeing if Mr Cordova could do something with an all weather cotton in the future.

    The Dobbs Diner...

    Wondering if any light could be shed…I have a bid in for this Dobbs Golden Coach. The seller didn’t do a great job on photos but based on what I can tell of the interior if it is vintage it’s 1970s at the most but looking at the style it certainly doesn’t seem like a modern hat…it even looks...

    What Cap Are You Wearing Today?

    So my linen newsboy from Thomas Farthing (the “Gower” model) put up a good show against a Florida shower this afternoon walking back to my car after work. It was soaked, and now, hours later still damp to the touch, but it kept my head pretty dry and doesn’t seem any the worse for wear.

    I think that’s how he generally works, but I’m sure if you had a fabric in mind he could probably try to find some. The drape is a lot but he forms the crowns well so they don’t droop too much.

    Wanted to join in on the Cordova Love! Grabbed my new graphite gray linen 8 Panel on the way into work today with a rakish, jaunty angle. Still getting used to a cap with a leather sweat but I do love this thing, the design and craftsmanship is tops!!!

    Thank you, you’re too kind! Being “cool” is something I’m rarely accused of!

    Yeah, they got back to me and confirmed to go with the cm measurements.

    The Cap Faction

    Well, I ordered a 59cm even though it’s listed as a 7 1/2, so finger’s crossed.

    The Cap Faction

    Interesting. Thanks for the insight! So stick with my 59 cm measurement even though that would be a 7 1/2 in their sizing?
