Supposeably there is a difference.......... I hate that using those words wrong effects you. Are the affects long lasting? I don't sweat it. It's just 6 of one or a dozen of the other.- suitedcboy

What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?
"I really like seeing that Royal Scot, Rodkins. It is very different from mine in that it appears to have a wider brim and wider edge binding. It is a classy hat that looks great on you. " Mr. P, I totally agree with you. That Royal Scot looks great on Rodkins. The Jazzman is a great hat too...- suitedcboy

The Conversion Corral
I think someone at Stetson was fascinated by the similar label Microsoft uses on their products to assure authenticity. I have a couple of Stetson westerns that had those round labels on the sweatbands. The adhesive used on label gets slimey when mixed with sweat and human oils so I peeled them...- suitedcboy

movie hats that inspired you...
Antenna TV is an oldies network on one of my OTA stations. Three Stooges Marathon was on on a rainy cold day over the holidays and I was surprised to see the nice fedoras on characters, and at times, on the Stooges.- suitedcboy

Western, anyone?
You break out the rear glass. You don't need it with a proper fitting 100% beaver hat. I have a Volvo I drive when I don't drive the truck. I had to modify the headrests. I MIGHT get whiplash from rear end collision but I'M GUARANTEED a sore neck if I let those headrests stay as they were. Hat...- suitedcboy

Rabbit rash
Sand it with 300 grit and then 600 grit sandpaper. Pouncing is what takes the hat from a wooly finish to a smooth finish during manufacture. I have cleaned off spots and repaired "furballs" in the felt using the sanding method. I'm sure it is not to be used willy-nilly or too frequently but it...- suitedcboy

Howard Hughes
"And for his last time at the controls in 1973, he had his aides get him a replacement for his lucky fedora so he could fly." Mr. Hughes' worth just went way up in my book. I do agree the pictured hat is not a Whippet with that edge binding.- suitedcboy

young people & hats
I love these threads! I do not disregard all etiquette of old as it pertains to hats but I don't take my hat off at EVERY chance for a few reasons, two of these are: 1. I find ugly hat hair to be far more offensive than any offense I may have because some ancient tradition that was imposed on me...- suitedcboy

"I had a dilemma today. I'm going away for a few days to the in-laws and needed to decide which 1 hat I was going to wear. Unpredictably, I chose a Borsalino..." I can understand you abandoning your grand collection of Adam hats if you expect an in-law to come at you wielding an umbrella...- suitedcboy

Western, anyone?
I am not a germophobe nor any kind of clean freak but when I saw this earlier today what crossed my mind was mercury, dirt, sweat, and stuff that only ends up in a hat after it has been on a head not washed very well nor too frequently. The last of those things would be the one that would...- suitedcboy

I know the beavers in that one have to be proud to have given up dam building in cold water knowing they look so damn good all these years later. Gorgeous hat and you wear it so well.- suitedcboy

Miller-Stockman Catalogs
I love that ad. Several of the westerns look like they'd give you an overpowering urge to pick up a guitar and sing a song with lots of yodeling in it. You'd probably develop a sudden interest in shirts with fringed 3 pearl snapped cuffs too.- suitedcboy

That is a really good looking hat. Maybe it is the lighting but the color looks unusual and unique. You wear it well too. That color looks like a very versatile color. It looks good casual and I know it would go well with blue or grey suits. Bravo!- suitedcboy

Stolen/confused whippet...
I think that was mis-typed. Shouldn't it read "not to wish him bad but I hope a nice wind blows him out from under the hat and into a river"? I wouldn't want a great Whippet to drown when it did no wrong.- suitedcboy

How often do you wear a hat?
"just about everyday" is less frequently than "most of the time" to me. I hope I voted the most frequent selection.- suitedcboy
