    Peaky Blinders???

    Having just binge watched all five seasons of Boardwalk Empire and since I had not see it for a second time since it's first showing, I believe I was wrong when I stated earlier that I thought Peaky Blinders was better. This time around for BE, I noticed a few things I had not before, lines said...

    What brand of Fedora?

    First off, I'm not really in the market for another fedora, it would make four if I did. I'm just curious about things that make up the fedora market both past and present. Two of my fedoras, as you know, are Stetson and I'm quite happy with them both. I read threads about Borsellino and they...

    A boys cap!!!

    I just watched an episode of Boardwalk Empire and something was said that I missed when I first watched the series a few years back. It's where Al Capone attended a Bar Mitzvah and was told he should change hats, Al ask why, "this one not good enough" and he was told, he's a "man and not a boy...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Going to be an inside weekend with rain and floods. Since I've watched Peaky Blinders twice, I've ordered HBO to watch Boardwalk Empire....again. I've only seen those episodes once.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    It is a bit more than my other Stetson. My head doesn't take straight crown well. What looks good on someone else doesn't always look good on another.

    Stetson Bellevue. It arrived today, so far I'm batting 1000 out of the box with Stetson. I tink I'll stop now with fedoras. I might put the Akubra up for sale.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    I do have it now at the shape I want but there's nothing I can do about the height and that there is no sloping inward. I have been wearing it today around the house to get it sized to my head while reciting the Gettysburg Address. :D

    I just saw a swing tie I've got to get. It on a re-run of Seinfeld and Kramer was wearing it. It was the episode where he's had too much caffeine from having free lattes from hot coffee and get's kicked out of a Latte Bistro. He's wearing a swing tie that is great!!!

    You are correct and that is the reason, no taper, for it looking like a stovepipe on my head.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    It's actually a Federation IV Deluxe and I've been forming the crown to my liking. I honestly think it's the contrast colors of the hat and the ribbon that gives it the belief it sit's high on the head. I can see the taper difference still applies to the Federation.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    I now believe it's also the difference in the color with the hat being a lighter color than the ribbon. The ribbon on the Stetson blends into the hat color. "and that's the rest of the story" .:D

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    DOH!!!! I finally figured out why there is a hesitation right off falling deeply in love with this Akubra as I did my Stetson. For some reason, I don't like how it sits, it's not the crown, it is the same height in front and back as my Stetson, the brim is only an 1/8 difference, could be the...

    Continuing shaping, wearing and forming this new Akubra. Long process for someone doing this for the first time.
