    Different types of leather and their characteristics!

    Horse does seem water repellant up to a point but will eventually soak up moisture (and shrink). Goat is also pretty resistant and is quite tough, but will also shrink if soaked.* Goat is also not very warm to wear. Bison hide will soak through like a sponge but I'm not sure about shrinkage - it...

    Need to fix slight scuff on shoes

    Since you aren't dealing with a painted or varnished or metal surface, I'd avoid the use of any kind of abrasive. This is not an application for emery paper. Find a cobbler. There will be one not far away. It's worth the slight amount of time to find a good one.

    Everybody Wants ta get inna da act! New book "Let's Bring Back..."

    Points well taken. It continues to fuel the trend, which is a good thing. The Fedora Lounge occupies a strong position among the admirers of the culture of The Greatest Generation.

    Everybody Wants ta get inna da act! New book "Let's Bring Back..."

    In the November 2010 issue of Vanity Fair. Page 106, a new book is profiled. One Lesley M M Blume suggests such things as Hunphrey Bogart, headscarves, The Stork Club, umbrellas, radio dramas and typewriters should be brought back. I wonder if author Blume did research here at The Fedora...

    Johnny Depp in talks to Play The Thin Man

    Maybe. Possibly. Perhaps... Rachel McAdams for Nora. THANK YOU! Bale is the very worst actor in the business. Can't understand a word he says in anything.

    True Grit - the Dude redo the Duke

    *sigh* Yeah. It looks like it'll be fantastic. The book is quite worth finding to read. But boy - It feels like taking something precious from, robbing, The Duke. Cogburn was his baby. Oh well. Time goes on. But if they team Bridges and Streep for the sequel, I reserve the right to gag...

    Newsboy: Hannah or Hat People?

    I don't understand. Perhaps Brett's caps seem that way as the top of his caps are more full and, to my thinking, much more vintage looking and correct? It may be a matter of proportion as you view them. I have caps from B!Wear and Hat People and the HP one never gets worn. I look like a...

    That is one seriously gabby son of a gun. She is scratching. The final fading second her fingers are clearly moving away from her head. She's not holding anything.
