    Young loungers

    Wow...I can't believe I missed this thread...but now that I see it, I'll make my post. I'm 23 now, and have felt my interest in vintage growing and expanding for a great portion of my life so far. As a kid, I always had a fascination for antiques. On family vacations, I'd love stopping in...

    In search of a newsboy / 8 panel cap with a younger look

    I have a couple of NY Hat Co. newsboys, and I like them pretty well. Personally, I don't think they're as nice a quality as b! Wear, but the shorter cut of the NY Hat Co. wool newsboy I have fits me better than the larger cut b! wear. Here is my NY Hat co. newsboy. Not the best picture, but...

    In search of a newsboy / 8 panel cap with a younger look

    Are you looking for a newsboy with a full cut, or a not so full cut? It all depends on your face shape and your personal preference, really. If you already know which type of cut works better for you, that can help narrow in your focus. Hat People might be a good idea. Also, b! Wear...

    HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

    Well, Halloween is over, and I don't know about anyone else, but there were hardly any Trick-or-Treaters at our house last night. All night we had three groups, with a total of about fifteen kids. This leads to a ton of candy left over in the cabinet now... What about others? Was anyone...

    The TOMMY BURST! (ca. 1960's commercial)

    Well, out of curiosity I looked on ebay...but there aren't any listed. I wonder what the odds are of one showing up for sale at some point.

    What do you do to a new hat?

    Yep...them vintage hats seem like they all need therapy...lol No...I see what you're saying. I've had to clean a few when I get them, try to resize them a bit, and change the bash. But when I get a new hat (new to me, or new to the world), I have to post it on the "new hats" thread. I...

    HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

    Thanks for the Halloween wishes everyone...hope everyone else's Halloween is spectacular too! I actually have the night off from work (which is a relief when you work in security), so I'm looking forward to a quiet night at home handing out candy and maybe watching a few movies.

    Awesome hat, thunder!! Looks great on you and you wear it well! I'm sure you'll get lots of wear out of that one this season.

    New Guy On The Block

    Actually, that's a good point. I could definitely see myself carrying a briefcase around for work. If that's the case, I'd consider that.

    New Guy On The Block

    I have thought of the same thing for my backpack. For most modern "Jansport-type" backpacks, there's that loop-handle at the top of the pack. I've considered attaching some sort of clip with a soft clamp to that loop to attach to the brims of my hats once I get settled in the classroom. It's...

    New Guy On The Block

    Welcome to the Lounge! As you can see from the number of responses so far, the dilemma over whether to wear the hat in a restaurant is something that comes up a lot here, and something that many of us have different opinions on. My take is this: If I am going to be eating with others at my...

    LA Times - LAPD Gangster Squad series

    It almost reads like a textbook...lol. It's a fascinating subject though. Golden Era crime normally gets my attention like chocolate...[huh]

    Fedora for my face shape (pics)

    I would be interested to see how a wider brim looks on you. For some people though, transitioning to wider brims takes some getting used to, as well as the taller crowns. The one you have now does look pretty good, but see about having a tighter pinch on it.
