Ribbon tie idea
Here's an idea- for the Western look, why not try some of that ribbon as a dress tie-Western-style, with the two ends hanging down, after a sort of bow at the neck...could get some great contrast/complimentary color going with a hat... hmmmm......anybody got any photos of such a thing?? -

Berets, Anyone?
c'mon everyone-the coolest thing a cat could wear back in the day was a black beret...and black turtleneck, shades were NOT optional, and mumbling was the mode of communication; any hep-cat that didn't wear a beret was wearing a stingy-brim; no base-a-ball caps; dig? -

Behind door number three...
On that Resistol Ten... I happened into the same kind of situation last week; bid on a hat that was advertised as a Stetson; the seller (after taking my money) wrote to say that the hat was indeed a Resistol, not a Stetson... a Resistol 50, as printed on the logo on the liner. I take a 7 3/8... -

Thrift store purchase...Champ Upswing (?)
welcome to the Lounge! nicer hat than I first thought...try it with a nice Black Turtleneck, dress it up a bit. You're lucky, have a handsome face, will be able to get away with a lot of things we can't...try a bit wider brim and more neutral color if possible, it'll give you a "blank... -

What year is my Whippet?
Not sure about pricing dictating the year on Whippets, but know that the brim width has a lot to do with the age of the hat-2 5/8 seems to be the desired width, and 2 1/2" the more common. Only know that through selling a couple of Whippets, one to a fellow Lounge member who knows his stuff. -

Newbie: Lucky or Sucker, you decide...
Move over in that boat. Can't manage to swing with Mr. DeepPockets when it comes to a simple hat. I'm afraid that we might not see any hats at all- they'll all go on to eBay, and unless we either get lucky or foolish, the prices on deadstock hats will be too high. Mingo- wanna split a hat??
