    I love the Fed IV!!

    Got the Stylemaster in on Friday and have worn it a bit since then. Will get a pic of me in it up in the New Hats thread. Still undecided if it is too much brim, but Wife never said anything and people like me in the panama hat I have, so maybe my Saxon is not enough brim!!

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Wore my Stetson Saxon, caribou, to church today. Wife said it looked good, but said I am trying to find excuses to wear the thing. And her point is??????? Exactly.

    Too much damage?

    I am like High Pockets, relatively new. I have a fur felt, Saxon, and am babying it. In fact, only worn it around the house for about 30 minutes total since it is new and not below 80 yet. I have the Panama Bob and I take care of it but it is a more flimsy hat, by that, less substantial in...

    Where to get Double edge Razor?

    Honda, if you have been using the multi-bladed razors, like the Quattro, yes, you will have to learn to use a lighter hand. You can not dig into the face with a DE like you do with a Quattro. Go lurk for a bit at shavemyface. You will learn of the badger brushes, soaps, creams, balms, and...

    New To The Lounge With a Question...

    John, do explain why you went up a size. I wear a 7 1/8 and worry that my Stetson may not be as comfy as it should, now or in the future. The hat guy had me try on a 7 1/4 and said it was not the better fit, but it did have some wriggle room - Stetson Saxon that is. With my Stylemaster...

    New To The Lounge With a Question...

    My first hat is a Stetson Saxon. I had my wife and the hat guy try me on some Borsalinos, Baileys, Dobbs and two or three Stetsons. They said that the Saxon looked good and when I posted pics here, positive reviews. I am learning about center dents vs tear drops and diamonds, and rebashing...

    Where to get Double edge Razor?

    Join up at www.shavemyface.com, and I am a mod there. Lots of razors offered, some vintage Gillettes and other brands. There is vintageblades on the internet, and you can get some spiffy Edwin Jagger DE razors with horn and ivory handles.

    Panama Hat Thread

    Panama Bob sold me my Diamante and I have gotten nothing but compliments, more so than any cologne I was wearing or any tie for that matter.

    What would you guess the most popular bash is?

    Im gonna get the Akubra first and see how that looks and will have something to compare it to before trying to change up the Saxon.

    THE PIN UP THREAD FOR ALL!!!!

    Well, as a relatively new person to the entire forum, I don't know what past brouhahas existed. But the two ladies' pictured here, well, classy portraits. I have not yet found a 40's or so era suit or shoes, but if I can find something, Ill buy it and post pics. I think it would be fun to...

    What would you guess the most popular bash is?

    I tend to slope it on the right side of my face, which is the left in the picture and snap it a little down in front. Feel free to post a pic for me for reference. Now, my Akubra Stylemaster is going to be a 2.5" brim (vs 2" on the Saxon). Will that dictate a different bash or how do you...

    What would you guess the most popular bash is?

    Well, take a look and tell me if I should contemplate changing this to a tear drop or diamond dent? I dont know all the interplay about crown heights and stuff, and this being my first felt hat, I want to get the best look on it. Maybe Im obsessing too much, but then again, I am the type...

    What would you guess the most popular bash is?

    Is there any function component to the different bashes? I can see why machine made or mass-made hats might have a center bash, looks kinda easy to do it and go. But is there some reason why Western hats for the most part have one style bash and the fedoras have another? I dont think I can...

    Stetson Imperial, Sovereign, Royal

    Well, my Saxon (Royal) was $140.00 but I was going more on looks then felt grading. But it would have been nice to know I could get the 'better' felt in the same style of hat for a few $$ more.

    Autumnal Thoughts........

    I like summer, having the top down in my convertible, ditching coats, swimming, laking, beach. Sometimes it can be very humid and hot, and that is not enjoyable, but I like a good sweat working out in the yard. I also like fall and light sweaters. Im not a winter person and one day, Id love...
