Hi all, I have tried using the search here but keep coming up short, I recently obtained a couple of old Australian Stetson homburgs one of which needs a new leather sweatband plus a clean.
Can any Australian members here recommend a good hat repairer in Sydney, I know of Strand hatters...
Thank you very much gentlemen for your kind comments, it has been a while since I have logged in, been so busy with different projects.
The quality and variety of hats on display here are truly fantastic, some really awesome looks.
Just wish vintage hats where more readily available here in...
Here is a beautiful vintage Stetson St Regis, I received today, as new in a dark grey colour.[ATTACH=CONFIG]9421[/ATTACH
Thanks Countryclubjoe, and thanks Manofkent I should of perhaps posted some pictures up of the hat, but the waistcoat is one from the Gentlemen's Emporium, County Classics...
Thanks Dale, I am thinking perhaps you are right, and I know quite a few places on line to buy the new ones.
And Nobert, thanks as well, I guess materials change over time and I doubt todays alloys would be the same as back then, may be I am wrong, will have to find out if I order a new pair...
Hi There, Yes I was only reading just before I posted my message, that Shuron still makes the same frames, and that they do exactly what you mentioned, and that is to send a number of frames for the customer to try on, a great idea if you ask me.
But I have also read, and I think that was...
Stuffsmith, those are a great score, love the look of them. I have been searching around for a vintage pair of Ronsir Black Briar's with a taper arms, but keep coming up empty handed, would anyone here know a good online source, other than ebay.

Thanks for that, worldwide .. I mean are you willing to Ship these hats to other destinations apart from the States.
And what other forms of payment are you accepting, if not paypal.
Thanks Fastuni.. Cheers Two Types, and thanks Benny.
Fastuni, my thoughts as well very strange place to display that flaw, and Benny your not wrong about weight, this one weighs a Ton.
Baron Kurtz, I tried taking another clear pictures of the buttons, but just can't seem to get a good enough...
Yes, not a wise thing to do just put it up by $100 dollars I noticed that, then removed it from my watch list.
Sellers that do that, don't get my vote of confidence.
I was going to upload some pictures of an old Australian suit I found a few days ago, but for some reason I can no longer upload pictures here.
Has the uploading format changed, in the last few months, before I could just upload via the insert image.. but when I do that it does nothing.
Anyone...
I am looking to buy a vintage homburg preferably in a grey or brown, but nothing black.
Nothing shabby, must be in good condition, as I need it for best.
The size I need is a 7/1/4 (58) or (59).. anything from the 1940's or 50's would be a bonus.. If your willing to some sort of trade as...
One thing I have noticed today with my Squatter, that I have had a matter of months, is the leather sweatband has started to blister.
This is like I said basically a new hat, so I may be giving Akubra, a call this week to find out why it's happening.
