    Clooney's cap in "Leatherheads"

    I'm sure he wore it in other parts of the movie. I'll have to watch it again. Jerekson - I'm interested in the cap too so keep us posted on how you go finding one.

    Great Jacket! What is the make/ model? Is it vintage or reproduction?

    "Australia" Film Hats

    Hopefully the fact they have now "discovered" the Lounge might help in the Akubra ideas department. :offtopic: There's a great Job! R&D Manager Akubra. You'd have to take the new stock out all the time - you know to try it out for scientific purposes! lol It would be like Dracula in charge of...

    Tailors in Melbourne & Sydney

    Probably would be better for a more vintage feel. I actually asked that they make sure I didn't show any shirt - a guy at my work has a waistcoat cut way too high and suffers from a little corporate muffin top.

    Here is the Akubra news on the Movie http://www.akubra.com.au/News.aspx?id=73 I really think they should release a line of hats based on the movie. I've shot them an email suggesting it.

    Pocketwatches

    Mine's a Smiths Empire. Great open face pocket watch. Bought it on Ebay from the UK. Doesn't miss a beat. Great deco feel. (Note: photo taken from ebay - however it is the same model as mine)

    A new guy with an Indy hat question....

    Hopefully not an un-Australian thing to say but with the falling Australian Dollar an Akubra is rapidly becoming a low cost alternative (at least for you American chaps!). In fact now may be the best time to get in. Have a look at Everything Australian as one good option.

    The Dumbest Comment I Ever Heard

    I tend to do the following: - gentle smile and twinkle in eye - - look the poorly dressed specimen up and down - exclaim - "I prefer to dress as a man rather than a boy" - smile indulgently -

    Bike to Work Khakis

    Personally prefer Dashing Tweeds as a cycling fashion choice. Or something for the ladies:

    Not sure? I'm about to head in this weekend to pick up a suit so I'll ask. I'll take a photo from Zootsuitstore.com and see what they say. Have you tried Antons? Highly recommended!

    The Cap Faction

    :cry: I know - I have a problem. Perhaps I should go cold turkey from the lounge. Not get a hair cut. Loose the suit and tie. Loose the fedora and buy a baseball cap. Wear it sideways. Loose the job. You know - become a good deadbeat! .... Nah! :p I've found this thread to keep me happy.
