    Post New Hats Here!

    Just arrived - Peters Brothers hemp Milan. I was correct about the advertised 6 7/8 being wrong; it is more like a 7 1/4. I’m pretty sure I can make it work though. The hat is like new, I really like it, and I don’t want to give it up. @deadlyhandsome, will the brim respond to steam? It’s a...

    Ask a question, get an answer

    I must have been taught these as a boy, because they are second nature to me now. My grandmother would knock a hat right off my head if I walked into the house wearing it. I do agree that WalMart is definitely OK though. I also feel fine wearing my hat in the hallway or lobby of a school or...

    Ask a question, get an answer

    Glad to have you in the Lounge. I enjoy the SNZ; now I have to spend some time listening again! One of the advantages of FL membership is that you get to see and hear different perspectives. I agree with some of the other opinions expressed here that modern production hats don’t come close to...

    Agreed. However, I have a Stetson “The Sovereign” OR that I like with just the front of the brim down. It is a softer felt and the brim has more give. With my Resistol San Antonio, it’s brim up all the way; I couldn’t turn it down if I wanted to.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    Late post. I’ve been wearing this Champ Featherweight all week. When I first tried it on, I didn’t think it was going to fit my head properly (it seems that Champ sizing and my head are not congruent), but it settled down and is maybe the most comfortable hat I have. The “featherweight”...

    What hat are you waiting for today?

    I hope so. Is that color what they call “peanut butter?”

    What hat are you waiting for today?

    Seller said 6 7/8. Measurements say otherwise. I sent Andrew Jackson in to find out. Should be worth it either way.

    Post New Hats Here!

    Thank you, sir! I had been looking for a gray Stetson (my wife said no more of those “tan” ones needed, meaning silver belly and the like) and this one fit the bill. Just a bit more than I would normally pay, but well worth the price. I actually have one of the airplane pins that someone had...

    Post New Hats Here!

    I was fortunate to acquire these two pristine specimens this weekend (after I had decided I need not acquire any more hats). Both are in mint condition, with little, perhaps no wear. Both were photographed right out of the box. I’ll post more in the appropriate threads (after steaming and...

    Love that shade of green (and I don’t really like green).

    How many hats does one man need?

    Apparently, two more than I have today, as that is how many are on their way to me. Plus the one that I can’t decide if I need enough to justify the price, and the other one that I probably can’t let get away.

    What hat are you waiting for today?

    Not sure how I ended up being the only bidder, but I’m not complaining… Who couldn’t use yet another brown Champ?

    Adam Mr. Main Street. Second hat of the day, but I failed to snap a photo of the Stetson earlier.

    Wormser Showerproof fedora

    While I believe that it is not uncommon on FL to offer dispensation to fellow Loungers, this was a case of posting on multiple platforms and forgetting to change all of them. I originally offered the hat here (as @DaveProc suggested) and later posted it on eBay. I have been treated well by...

    Hats and Drinks - A Match Made in Heaven

    Sorry for your loss Dale. Eric, it really is quite refreshing on a warm day, and a perfect precursor to my traditional Labor Day burgers and franks feast. Deep River uses their flagship lager as the base for several interesting brews. This one has a strong dill pickle flavor that one will...
