    Thanks, Alan. I might have to try westerns. That might be another really big step, though!

    Right--this is a 3 3/4" black hat. :) The Royal Stetson I picked up--a light brown fedora with a 2" brim--was a huge change for me!

    The Black Hat Brigade

    Man, you guys really can give a guy a complex! :D I admit: I've a tendency for big black hats, but that's the yeshiva bocher in me. I started coming here when it occurred to me that I don't have to wear *only* big black hats, and I've been grateful for the education. I've thought about posting...

    Love it. You almost match the panache of the older gentlemen in that thread--you just need a good walking stick.

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    Will someone actually bid on this thing? I know, I know: no one's ever gone broke betting on people's stupidity.

    So a lady called me a Pimp today....

    Interesting point, tonyb! I agree, for the most part: all of us here choose to wear hats, a fashion choice that hasn't been mainstream in quite some time. I know that I've been wearing hats for long enough now that I take it for granted in my own silhouette, but it's still probably a surprise to...

    The long-haired hats are really something. I'm not sure that I could dress up to the look!

    Ha, ok, my first impression was correct. Good to meet you, too! You have great hats, and you wear them panache. I'm just getting started, myself. :)

    Man, that's great. I did a double-take, thinking it was a homburg, but you've got the best of both worlds there. Do you ever flatten the brim out, or is it not that moldable?

    Ask a question, get an answer

    Ok, I'm dying. I ordered a new hat Wednesday from Selentino, and I can't stop checking my email for a confirmation that the hat shipped. I'm worse than a kid waiting for his birthday! You'd think, me being in my late 30s, I might have developed coping mechanisms by now. Anyone have strategies to...
