    M.C. Gannon Hat Company

    I'm pretty sure I'm going with Bone, myself - I've seen all three felts and the Bone and Silvermist are especially beautiful, but Bone speaks to me. That's the Whippet I've had inside my head for years. As for ribbon, maybe rust - though Michael only has the 1.5" left. Trying to decide how...

    WTB: Aero Highwayman or Half Belt

    I should also add that if someone has an Aero of another design with a bit of mileage (a Bootlegger, say - what a beautiful jacket) I'd certainly be open to considering it.

    WTB: Aero Highwayman or Half Belt

    Thanks for the reply. I have, and I thought I was in the ballpark with 42 - but the truth is, most of what I have has been in the military repro area (A-1, A-2 etc.) and I find myself between a stock 40 and 42. I know this style is going to fit differently but I don't have any purchase...

    WTB: Aero Highwayman or Half Belt

    Well, after years of salivating over beautiful Aero jackets I think I'm finally ready to plunge in and buy my first. A new one is right out for me, price-wise, so I'm hoping to find one through the Lounge network. My preference would be for a Highwayman but I'd certainly look at a Half Belt...

    M.C. Gannon Hat Company

    Man, I'm on the wrong end of an 8-week turnaround time for Mr. Gannon right now - looking at the hats showed off here is going to make that torture.

    Hillside USA Leather Jacket Horsehide 44 Harley PnC Buco J100

    I'm in the same boat, size-wise... I'm very very interested, but just worried the fit is going to be too large.

    Cool, thanks.

    USN 37J1 ("A1") leather jacket sz 44 (42) $170

    Jay, would this be the same grade of leather and the same stitching and detail work as the final production jackets that came later? Is there a difference apart from the three piece back and the knits?

    Crofut & Knapp Forty, 7 1/4, 3 1/8" Cavanagh edge brim

    Yup, that's a beauty. Has a distinctly Whppetish air to it, I think.

    Anyone know anything about this hatmaker Daquino?

    Luisa seems to have really dropped off the grid - I've tried to contact her about doing another hat for me but haven't heard a peep since November.

    Knox Superfine 7 1/8 w/box BEAUTIFUL

    Yeah, that sounds like a true 7 1/8. Too bad - thanks anyway.

    Knox Superfine 7 1/8 w/box BEAUTIFUL

    I can wear a true 1/4. I'm either a 1/4 or 3/8 depending on the hat - though there have been large 1/8s that fit passably.

    Knox Superfine 7 1/8 w/box BEAUTIFUL

    That's a nice one, Moon - a bit of worry on the size, though. Any chance I could get measurements of the head opening?

    Dobbs twenty guild edge 7 1/4 Brown with Burgundy Band

    Matt, is that an actul homburg or is it just the way you have the brim turned up in the pics? I've never seen a homburg with pinches like that...

    50s Penneys Marathon 7 1/8 w/box

    Thanks for posting it - that's definitely going to be a bit too small for me. I'm sad - she's a beauty, and it's not off by a mile, size-wise. But I just don't think trying to stretch old hats is a good idea.

    50s Penneys Marathon 7 1/8 w/box

    If you want to measure the opening, I could see if there's any chance at all it'll work.

    What leather conditioner do you use?

    Thanks. I hear an awful lot about Pecards around here - if I were to go that route, which would be the pick, the regular leather dressing or the "antique"?

    What leather conditioner do you use?

    I have a general question (well, not that general I guess) about using conditioner on an older jacket. I just picked up a Schott A-2 from the 70s (most likely). It's in really good shape, but I think the leather (I'm assuming it's steer) could use a general freshening up - it's probably a...
