Dinerman,
I think I recognise your boaters, one looks like the model Worth & Worth sells, the black banded one looks like one I own from cambridge. Are these accurate, or where did you get them?

first off- welcome to the lounge!

I got the boater with the red striped band at a yard sale for a dollar. There are no tags in it, so its origin is a bit of a mystery. It's got a black sweatband, so I don't think it's really all that old.

The other boater is an old pedigree, which is way too small for me, measuring in at 6-7/8.

Best looking merchandise from JC Penney's I"ve ever seen, RBH, and the specs plus the hat are a terrific combo, I don't feel so alone anymore, now you have a college prof look to go with your wildcatter persona. ;)

This was a good idea, Baron...

This weekend I acquired a new (non-vintage) Selentino for everyday use from Henry the Hatter in Southfield, MI. I'm quite happy with it. Here goes:

Incidentally, while I was there I was shown the new Borsalino 100% beaver, and I must say for something that had a $500 price tag, it was rather disappointing.

In the vein of the stupendously successful "Show Us Your Suits" series of threads, i start this one in which we can show off our acquisitions. In my opinion it really is beoming cumbersome to have a new thread for every new hat that comes in. These threads generally die after about 15-20 posts. This (i hope) will be a long-running thread in which we can showcase new and interesting purchases. New, vintage, newsboys, fedoras, baseball caps, whatever: they're all welcome. SHOW US YOUR HATS

I begin with my new 30s (?) Mallory homburg - recently acquired from Mark the shoeshine boy. I'm very happy with it: great fit, great condition, nice wide brim (my other homburg is a stingy 60s thing). All around a great hat.

I'll go out on a precarious limb and say that i prefer Stetsons to Borsalinos. Here're my Stetsons. I think this is all of 'em that i kept.

3 Stetson Whippets (all with very different dimensions).

Okay- I've got the bigger version. I like those better though. I'll take a look this weekend when I go to get a new pair.

Hey Mr. Lucky,

Just curious; is that a beige Huckel in the far right corner looking like someone's brother-in-law at a family picnic;) ?

dean
Yes, yes it is. BUT...it is still a work in progress. I've ordered some grosgrain ribbon (vintage striped) that will adorn it after the new year. It ain't over yet!
