    Found a hat guy in Atlanta

    The best "hat guy" near Atlanta used to have a shop on the square in Roswell until health reasons caused him to sell out. He then went to work at Sackett's Western Wear in Jasper, http://www.sackettsonline.com/ He used to carry Beaver Brand fedoras, Open Road clones, but since they've gone out...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    They're all meant to be worn, ESPECIALLY the mint ones! Like a car that is never driven or a gun that is never fired = what a waste!

    2015 Stetson Excellent Quality GREEN THIN RIBBON (Preview & Review)

    A Resistol 7 5/8 LO is spot on for my noggin. New Stetsons in 7 5/8 Regular Oval start out tight front to back but get to LO shape with training, that goes mainly for the stiffer western models. The softer fedora ones seem to shift shape a bit quicker. I've got a modern HatCo Stetson new model...

    Wilson Leathers Open Road

    Looks like a jam-up jacket AF. I never liked the perfecto type because of the belt scratching my paint job on my gas tank. They don't look right without the belt & orphaned loops, IMHO. I think you've done very well getting a good look of how you look in that style of jacket without forking...

    Found a hat guy in Atlanta

    I thought I followed up on this thread but guess not! Steve's main focus is ladies' hats. He did a decent job cleaning & sewing in a cloth sweatband to that beater. I found no reason to bring him any additional business since I can do as good a job cleaning & hand blocking as he did. Since he...

    2015 Stetson Excellent Quality GREEN THIN RIBBON (Preview & Review)

    I wear a 61 Akubra, all models & a 7 5/8 Stetson Premiere Stratoliner fits me fine. It starts out a little too round oval but accepts training willingly...

    Easiest, least "painful" way to cup a brim...

    I have had good results flattening out a brim on ironing board with a steam iron & a handkerchief. Guess if you had something close to the shape that you could iron against, that might work for you....

    Akubra (or other) rain-day commuter hat recommendation and / or Stylemaster tweaks

    Thin ribbons are considered "country" hats, as opposed to wider ribboned "city" hats = hats for dressing up & going into town.... The Bushman is more of a drovers model where Campdraft is closer to a fedora. Remember, Campdrafting is Australia's version of reined cowhorse so it too is...

    Pilgrim's Pride

    :arated: This one looks just like a Stetson Corral 25 I have, so probably is an original raw edge model.
