    Hello Plures! Welcome to the Lounge! You are going to enjoy your journey of vintage hats. Looks like a Borsalino to me but I am not a expert. Historically-wise, I don't think Mussolini is the type of man to steam his hat and flattened the brim......

    What would you pay for a Yeddo Straw Boater? What price for a vintage one that is in wearable and okay condition?

    I started on a Panama Pork pie, then a fedora I bought in Bavaria and then a boater. :-) I think fedoras and boaters are mine. Hats are addictive and really beware, you might never get rid of it! :D

    So when did the boater sink from popular wear?

    I would say popularity of the straw boater was gone by the 1950s. 1920s was a real era for the boater, you couldn't see anyone WITHOUT a boater. WOW. You go down Fifth Avenue and see around 30 boaters on display and there were TOO many of them. Now, there are really hard to find, those real...

    Cannabis smell. How to get rid of?

    I meant trumpet cases, not the trumpets. They don't smell at all :-). The cases do. My method is for the non-patient. hehe

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    I just watched a bit of Jeeves & Wooster, Laurie & Fry Version. You can watch great amounts of amazing clothing styles and amazing hats (fedoras, boaters and more). Love it as Jeeves hates Bertie's fashion...... Sad thing he hates Bertie wearing a boater, which I think is blasphemy.

    Cannabis smell. How to get rid of?

    I would firstly sanitize in the sun for a day or two. (You wouldn't know what wonders the sun does for killing germs) and then, I would personally flush in soapy lukewarm water solution. Then, after drying it in the sun and finishing it off with a hair dryer, I would get one of these...

    Your Most Disturbing Realizations

    As a child, I only used a music ipod and an old battered and slow Macbook which I still operate for 5 years now. Trusty Apple :) I learnt how to operate a typewriter at the age of 13, pretty uncommon for a child these days. Olympia Deluxe Typewriter, very nice machine it is. I collect old...

    Well, plans are starting to finalise. I plan to start production of Rustic straw boaters in May 2017. May experiment with a bit of flower edged plait (the ones Olney use) and a Luton Rail Plait (could be the next generation plait for boaters......) I have found people/dealers/salesman who have...
