    "The Grizzly"

    I saw one of these going for $2500 in vintage men's clothing on Ebay. I'm too lazy to go back and find the link :D

    Looking for a dark green wool coat...

    Hmph I found the loden coat thread very interesting, though most of them seemed more dressy than rugged. Beautiful coats though. It seems the style I want is fairly common overseas: http://www.brontecountrywear.com/countrywear/fieldcoat3_large.htm But I was hoping to do it on the cheap...

    Looking for a dark green wool coat...

    LOL yup sorry I missed the sale price. They don't have it in my size though. Chasseur I really like that German coat, that's exactly what I'm looking for.

    Looking for a dark green wool coat...

    That Orvis coat is perfect but waay out of my price range. My hope was that someone knew of a "dark horse" deal of some kind. I don't own any current Woolrich coats, which was why I wanted to get someone's feedback on it.

    Looking for a dark green wool coat...

    ...3/4 or hip length, a "car coat" so to speak. It MUST be a dark green. I'm looking at the Filson double mackinaw, though $335 is spendy for me, and also this one: http://www.woolrich.com/woolrich/browse/productDetail.jsp?icParent=subCategory&icCategory=cat10019&icProduct=22703&icSort=# I'm...

    An Exquisite But Unwearable Vintage Suit

    The first thing that springs to mind is a costume party. Every year on New Years Eve some friends of mine have a "Dress to the Nines" party, and non-contemporary clothing is encouraged. I just wear my best suit with the trimmings (cufflinks, etc.), but man I would like to be able to show up in...

    The movie was better than the book

    Another Stephen King one: Stand by Me was a fantastic movie, The Body was a decent novella but not great.

    Post New Hats Here!

    Akubra Fedora in Burnt Oak Not sure if anyone has posted this color before, as close as I could come: Outdoors: [/IMG] And on my pointy head. [/IMG] The hat is very very soft, not a very high brim, a bit too much taper IMO but I really love the color, very much a "burnt" dark brown.

    I'm so dang pleased with myself!

    Exactly! It's funny how you can experience a perceptual shift. I put on a baseball cap and I feel like a kid again, and not in a good way. Well done on converting your friend!

    Leatherheads - The Movie

    Leatherheads Clooney's movie is set in 1926 and the fashions are fantastic, though the movie ain't so much. Anyone else see it? Sorry if someone mentioned this film once before.

    Recommendations for a summer blazer

    Just a follow-up: how did I do? Sorry if I am being an attention-seeker here, but many of you kind folks responded to my plea for advice and this is just a follow-up to what I finally wound up purchasing...

    Vintage Things That Have Disappeared In Your Lifetime?

    Boy is this ever true, which is a real shame because kids run rampant all over their parents. Several times I have stepped in to verbally defend a parent who swatted her rambunctious child in front of a pooh-poohing, politically correct bystander. In eighth grade my teacher made a dozen males...

    Vintage Things That Have Disappeared In Your Lifetime?

    As a kid I used to love playing with those metal cap-guns that you would feed the red paper into. I loved the bang! and the smell.

    Akubra International

    I am posting this thread because I had trouble finding any info on this hat and didn't know what to expect when I bought it. A couple other FL members had mentioned this hat, part of Akubra's Lifestyle line of packable hat with the new pliofelt, but the images had been erased or I felt that...

    You can take my freedom, but you'll never have my haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat

    Well regarding the ruling style has nothing to do with it, nor does protection from the elements. Don't get me wrong, MN is a place of extreme weather, but at least when I was in high school we had indoor gym and not recess. MN still is one of the highest ranked states in terms of the...
