Merged Hatter Thread
Males Posture I don't know either protagonist, nor am I one to take sides. The owner of the forum can do as he pleases, even if that means changing established guidelines, and those of us who contribute (or merely lurk) can determine for ourselves if we can tolerate same. From where I sit...- Honduran

College Football!
Harp I'd gladly accept, and I'd expect to get the next round. How about a nice Canadian ale? I envy your allegiance to your alma maters, and the pride shown in the traditions of college football in America. I played some university ball at McGill in Montreal, and we even won the national...- Honduran

College Football!
ND? Hey Harp - as much as I admire the history and spirit of Notre Dame football, I'm just not sold on Brady Quinn. I think Pete Carroll will devise a strategy to get inside his head and put him through the spin cycle. If I'm wrong, I'll buy you a beer! Bryan- Honduran

Norton Internet Security 2006 SUCKS
So this is where the "techies" (as my boss calls computer geeks) hang out! The AVG upgrade works fine, and is a breeze to set up. Just remember to immediately update your virus definitions (you'll get a warning about doing so), as the set-up file already contains out of date definitions...- Honduran

College Football!
If only there were playoffs! While I love the debates that rage over the latest BCS rankings, and all the speculation about whose playing whom in what Bowl, surely it's time for a playoff format? Top eight teams (or conference champions plus at large teams) playoff in the 4 major Bowls on New...- Honduran

Tilley Fedora size warning
Is that a put down, or a backhanded compliment? What's your experience with Akubra? I own an Akubra, and find it's the ideal hat for everyday wear: It's well made, durable, handles the elements with aplomb, and is stylish. I'll admit it's not a custom made felt, but then I'd rather wear it... -

How did you start wearing hats?
Getting thin on top I was never a fan of hats, wearing them only when necessity (meaning our frigid Canadian winters) made them mandatory. Even then, would a wool toque qualify as a hat? With increasing age comes growing wisdom, and when combined with a thinning hairline, the summer sun... -

Acme Hats?
Hey Guys, I thought you'd get a kick out of the following graphic, used to headline an article in The Economist on the merits of targetted advertising in the Internet age. It made me chuckle because it's very clever, and at the same time slyly comments on a time past (sadly) when every man... -

Nice Lid - Canada's Biltmore is Back
From The Globe and Mail, Saturday, April 29, 2006 "]http://www.theglobeandmail.com/servlet/story/LAC.20060429.HATS29/TPStory/TPEntertainment/ The article refers to "the new stingy-brim style that has recently inflected Biltmore's line." I don't suppose anyone cares to comment? There's... -

Akubra straws
I agree that anything from Panamabob is superior in quality, and if ordering through him you'd be helping to support the continuation of what is, in reality, an art form. However, I wanted a hat I would actually wear on a daily basis. The Akubra is well made, sturdy, and looks great. -

Akubra straws
Akubra "Reef" I purchased an Akubra straw only a month ago, and it's already my favourite hat. Resonably priced, good service, great quality. Can't go wrong. Here's the linK: Akubra's "The Reef" Cheers! -

my first fedora
Newbies X 2 From one newbie to another, welcome! I just wish I had your luck on eBay - so far, haven't seen anything there my size. That's a fine hat, in beautiful condition. I'm glad it finally found a good home! Cheers, Bryan -

Optimo Hat Company has a new website
On a Pedestal WOW - The beauty of those babies on the website is incredible. And the site is understated and elegant - just the right tone. I had to resist the impulse to order, but my day will come. I have to work my way up to it, though. I don't want to purchase quality hats from Optimo... -

Remembering "Dad"
Heartfelt thanks I want to thank each of you for your kind words. I felt awful, and slightly embarassed, that I'd made an offer and wasn't able to deliver. I wasn't sure how people would react. I have renewed faith in human nature after reading your generous posts. Canadave - my nephew... -

Info needed on Akubra
I just purchased 2 hats from them, and anxiously await their arrival! I ordered "The Reef", a lightweight straw, and "The Fedora", in burnt oak. Their service has been impeccable so far, and I'll let you know if I'm satisfied after they get here. I don't have much luck on eBay or in vintage... -

Cinderella Man
Flawed Film I saw "Cinderella Man", and by far the best aspect to the film was Russell Crowe's performance, closely followed by Paul Giamatti. The film itself lacked resonance - Ron Howard missed the mark. Max was portrayed as cartoonish, and all I could think about was how the character...- Honduran

Remembering "Dad"
A Sincere Aplogy Guys, I'm writing this from southwestern Ontario, from my mother's residence. I arrived Friday, eager to begin a thorough examination of the treasure chest that is the cedar closet in the basement. I'd never really taken inventory, never appreciated the value, and I'm... -

Remembering "Dad"
Thanks Please note that my nephew is taller than I am, about 6'3". He's selected a few hats, cuff links, tie pins, and other items. I'm not giving away anything that hasn't already been discussed and agreed to within the family. As no one can use the clothing, I just though some of you... -

Remembering "Dad"
Hey Guys (and Gals?), I'm new here, but after getting acquainted with some of you via previous posts, I think I'll fit in. I have a relatively new found interest in vintage clothing and accoutrements, subsequent to the passing of my father in November, 2003. My nephew, a young lad just 20...
