What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?
Brother, you don't need a hat to look good. You do. However, your good taste, only compliments your good looks. Your hat wearing sensibilities, are similar to my own. I just don't pull it off as well as you. Carry on. -
What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?
I had originally ordered a Racine. It fell down to my ears and while I liked the hat, girlie-girl told me it didn't go with my complexion. So, when I sent it back, I asked for the Grand Central, she likes it much better. Not only that, in the same size—a much better fit. Unfortunately, I hadn't... -
Berets, Anyone?
My first "real" beret was a leather sweatband model, a Hoquy/Laulheré. Fit perfectly right out of the box, but then got smaller, stiffer and scratchier. On advice given here, I got a hat stretcher (and some one-piece/sweatbandless models). After some leather conditioner, stretching and... -

Wow. Another great color. The binding just sings on that one. -

Moon, where you find those lids is beyond me, but you sure do wear them well. Nice color on that one. Everyone looking particularly swell. You all make my day. A very scruffy yours truly, just cleaning up the edges of the drive in the Stetsonian. Lovely day and a warm hat. -

What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?
Went for a stroll yesterday morning. The SB CD was on my head first, but then I re-discovered this Orvis Muir Woods. I had bought this for a good friend for Christmas, about three or four years ago. It didn't fit him and decided that this wasn't his sort of hat. I had meant to send it back, but... -
Berets, Anyone?
Hi Daan, having thought about it a bit, I believe I get looks because a man wearing a beret over here is danged near unheard of. I've seen two (other than my own) in the past two years. I may be coming off as a little "flamboyant." At least as far as other(s) tastes are concerned. The hair... -

Berets, Anyone?
The shop only deals in dollars so I don't think the rate will make much if any, difference. But what do I know? Just something I noted. Fall and Winter are (currently) my favorite times of the year to wear a nice beret. Was accompanying a good friend on a horse shoeing job over the weekend and... -

Yeah, Ben does exceptional work. One of the, if not thee best (I'm biased) , tiki carvers I know of. He carved all of the original tiki's and tiki/tropical ornamentation at the Tropicana when they went tiki-themed back in the day. He's been at it for a good, long while. A good, un-chipped...- foamy

Junkies. If I find out you're a user—we won't be seeing much of each other. Cannot be trusted. Anyone my cat won't stay in the same room with. If small cat doesn't care for your presence—I probably won't either.- foamy

What hat are you waiting for today?
I acquired a nice, black pea coat at an after Christmas sale a few weeks ago and was wanting a hat that would go well with it. Yes, I have some hats that can be worn with it like the Caribou Whippet, but I wanted something closer to black. I tried ebay, consignment and second-hand shops and have... -

MB's are very nice—classic, IMO. Would love to have had lugged, but went instead with Columbus Spirit light weight chromo, brazed and a chromo fork. The bike did real well, but didn't like much more than 35 lbs. on it—which, it turns out, was about all I needed or wanted. Staying on topic...- foamy

Ah, Rivendell. Grant Peterson, one of the original retro-grouches. I have a Bridgestone RB-2 from his time with them. Seroiusly considered a Riv when I was shopping for a bike to do the cross-country tour. Sweet bikes. Ended-up going with a Bilenky.- foamy
