Introducing Myself

[CollegeKid]

Well I have posted a couple places on here, but I figured I would finally introduce myself. I found this site looking for Fedoras and social etiquette, thought it looked pretty sweet. Right now I'm a college freshman majoring in Criminal Justice. I started collecting Fedoras when I was a freshman in high school. I gave some to my little brothers when I left for college, so I am collecting some more slowly. I don't have many pics right now, I will upload more and get more active in the forum as I collect more suits, Fedoras, etc. Anything else you want to know about me?

Sure, what's your favorite period regarding such clothing? 20s, 30s, 40s or 50s?

Do you focus on one decade or do you embrace most of them? And just for fun, what inspired you to collect in the first place?

PS: WELCOM!

I haven't bought a lot of suits so far, but I like any of the fashions, mostly like 40's-50's though. My suits right now are just like modern, I dunno what they are based on. I can get some pics up. I started collecting because I saw a documentary on gangsters, and I saw some ballroom swing type dances where they were dressed like that, so that's when I decided to. That is also when I wanted to be on a ballroom dance team.

I want to go into the FBI after I graduate. I will be posting a lot here, probably mostly with questions.
