    M-65 Field Jacket

    Trenchy, i’d say hell no. No movie around early-mid 70s popularized the M-65 or any other military clothing. At least not in the Midwest of the USA. The US wasn’t even totally out of Viet Nam. The country was unified in opposition to that war and veterans weren’t exactly held in high esteem. The...

    M-65 Field Jacket

    I had a Sargent in the Marine Corps that had his M-65 tailored to a proud Fedora Lounge fit level. Actually all his uniforms even day to day utilities were. Was really weird for @1973-74. That guy was poster boy perfect and knew how to work the system. And most oddly he was a pretty cool guy and...

    The Resistol Roundup

    Another new hat fact revealed at the lounge. (at least to me) Especially when one considers how soon after WW11 this was. A German manufactured Resistol. It makes me think of how caught in the middle hat manufacturers must have been during and after that war. I can only surmise many companies...

    That’s too bad you removed your comments because it added context and flow to a conversation that needed had. Your observations were to the point and valid. It was what it was…now the conversation it is not. B

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Welcome to the lounge Buick. That’s a very good looking Highwayman and a great color. “Incorrect” sleeve length?? Not at all. Correct would be what looks right to the wearer and more importantly what feels right to the wearer. Rolled denim jackets, was how it was done back in the day for some...

    Constant 95F temps and outdoors - which fedora?

    Time honored pith helmet. Never goes out of style. Super sun protection. Suspension inner workings breath second to none. Plus they are just plain cool. B

    The Disney Diner

    Thank you so much. Appreciate it. Pics were from several years ago but it’s still a gorgeous example of a shimmering, blue silverish, swirly longhair that loves to be pet. A top 3-4 hat of mine. Here’s another pic cause it has Little Willow of old in the backround. She’ll be 7 in a couple...

    Well there now. Someone’s finally said it and so much nicer than i would/could. Been using the “situation” as therapy for practicing my “nice mode” at the expense of a few extra blood pressure and anti-arrhythmic meds. Thanks fellows for saving me a few bucks. Just took 10 yrs of lounge...
