I have never owned any caps like these before, but I’ve been curious and so I bid on and won an eBay auction for 3 donegal tweed caps made for Darcy Clothing by City Sport. This is the first one I've worn.
Was in Milan on vacation and was staying half a block from Mutinelli, a hat store that has been open since 1888 and I'm pretty sure still family-run. After seeing many, many hats (mostly Borsalino, which I don't really care for the modern models of) from all the stacks around, I ended up with...
I’ve had this Campdraft deluxe bashed 3 different ways since I got it last year - this is the one I like the most. Kind of like a cattleman but shallow dents that don’t go all the way back. Was just trying different stuff and this is the one that stuck.
Anyone out there getting rid of a wool half belt in size 42? I stupidly missed out on the Simon James Cathcart ones in my size, saw the sale part too late.
Maybe someone even has one of those they're looking to part with? Let me know.
Oooh, that’s a nice one. Kind of a rare style in the US, main place I’ve ever seen them is in movies.
What I think is interesting about the one I got is that the fit is more tailored than how you think of a Mackinaw being cut. You see it in European garments sometimes.
Definitely legit. The shirt I kept was this one and I still wear it all the time:

They are very similar to Bronson, possibly the same company?
I have bought two of their shirts, but one the sleeves were far too short, shorter than what they had listed. The quality on both was good, though. Have not gone back for anything because I’m afraid of the measurements being incorrect.
Could not pass this up. I’ve been looking for one like this for years, but this one is so very lightly worn and in such a badass dark brown color. Not sure how old, really hard to tell but maybe 30s.
Been wanting to class up this 80s Stetson since I got it. It's a handsome hat, but the band was just ugly, tacky fake leather. I bought a white ribbon, but it was far too bright so I dyed it in coffee.

Yeah, it’s a real nice hat. Been looking for something like this for awhile and kinda lucked into it without spending much money. It’s very lightweight compared to my western hats. Beautiful color to it. Glad to add into the collection, and I’m certain it’s just the first fedora, not the last.
