No, but really, she liked them and now wants me to buy some porkpies.
(And that's why I showed her them, besides that I wanted her to see how someone could look simultaneously pleasant, intelligent, stylish, cool, and neatly done up.)

Behold my new porkpie, just out of the box!
It is a new Beaver Brand, in Navy. I loved the bow treatment with the contrasting colours. It comes with wind string, which I like, not that I use it, but a good detail for me. Felt is a 5X fur which I believe is their standard.
Regards!
Just crease one of your own, it's fairly easy. [huh]D.W. Suratt said:Those are some nice hats. I don't have a porkpie yet, but I'm looking forward to getting one. I've always wanted one after seeing the French Connection.

Very nice Guyer (never heard of that brand before. . . ) and great avatar photo!
D.W. Suratt said:As I had mentioned on this thread before about wanting a pork pie ever since seeing The French Connection, I decided to buy a couple. Both Jaxon's, the Monk fur felt in gray, and the wool in black. I like both hats and will post pics of them later, but they didn't seem to satisify my urge to have a brown one with the unique pinch of the one worn by Gene Hackman in the movie. I had just received a vintage brown Champ fedora I had won on e-bay. The hat was the same color as Popeye's and has a 2 inch brim. I decided to go for it and create my own Popeye Doyle. Let me know what you think.
