European Velour Hats?
Found a terrific one in deep,deep blood red, almost too soft to conform, but able to after a tussle; Borsalino, and went to my wife; being so soft and "slouchy", it looks great on a woman. I was allowed to clean it. After I bought it through a dogfight at auction. Now that she knows how to... -
Mon b?©b?©!
Great hat! and fine work with renovation; I'd like to see more involved photos of this hat in particular, and for a specific reason: the pricing of "big name" hats is going through the roof (again), and we are now looking at the second strata of hats fo fill the gap left by Borsalino, Stetson... -

Hats In The Car/A Newbie Question
I wasn't being too much of a wiseguy when I asked about convertables; it's true, they did adjust the windshield for optimum windflow at speed, and if your did your homework, you got the one that you could have the windows rolled up, top down, and your hair didn't get mussed, never mind the hats... -

Softening a hard hat
Not a Fed., but some Western hats- how do you soften them up so that when you try to convert them into fedoras, they'll have some of the pliability that on would expect? any hatters out there willing to divulge the secret? -
2007 Cavanagh Park Avenue Review
Brad- thanks for the honest and quite telling review; I see that you've opened more than a few eyes to the difference between a custom hat and one off the shelf. I've had several older Cavanagh's. liked them very much, the finish was fine. This re-start could be the finish once again for... -

The duct tape block
Anyone think about the real meaning of duck tape? I mean, did you ever try to tape up a duck? And why would you in the first place? And I don't get this taping a duck to a hat. Gotta be one ornery duck, man. Strange stuff. I dunno...[huh] -

A contest of contests
How about the oddest item each member has in their household that most represents their quirky nature? Can be a set of things, but they all have to go to a single purpose, and can be bought, stolen, borrowed, handmade, preferrably with some age. Thats idea # 1. How about the oddest...- ideaguy

Please help assess my hats......
Good Taste!! Personally like 7 & 8 , and I think you're well on your way to a very nice collection, worthy already of note. You could teach us a thing or two about sizing & hats, you seem acutely aware of what's just a hair long/short...good eye ( even though the re-eye in the photos is a... -
The duct tape block
try using stiff foam, you can find it in blocks, used in shipping appliances, etc., and carve them with an exacto or bigger blade, then tape them to the block- might work. PS what Nikon are you shooting with? looking for a new camera, and have my eyes on a Nikon, fishing for feedback. thanks -
What is your favorite hat crease?
I had a friend who used $5. & $10. bills as shims for his one loose hat; I thought he was a bit looney-and then he made sense by saying" I'm never without some cash, in the case of an emergency, and even if I simply want to buy somethinng unexpectedly (big collector), I can always get it...
