Looks more "Streets of Cairo" to me, Jerekson.
Seriously, though, I know what you mean. Initially, when I knew that place was specifically focussed on the style of hats I was interested in, I liked it. But to be honest I'm now feeling more at home amongst Loungers. The atmosphere here is more about what looks good on a person, and not to do with the specifics of duplicating a particular bash.
I also think the average age over there might be a little lower, which might explain why more threads there tend to end up goofing about than they do here; you can ask a question or suggest an idea, and before you know it your thread can be sunk under in-jokes or unrelated stuff.
Don't get me wrong - C.O.W. folks are nice, friendly people, but they just have their priorities in a different place to me, that's all
that is one NASTY looking jacket is it a true vintage or a new jacket?cooncatbob said:Closest I've got is my Hoosier and my G-1, I just picked up a Vintage S&W M&P but don't have a picture wearing it.

I hope when I get one it will look half as good

There is just something about this hat that I like. So much so I tried to bash my new Federation in that style.
This is my take on the YIJ hat.RBH said:I have lately became hooked on the look from the Young Indy series. .
