top ho old chum
Dr. Greg- I saw the "before and after" photos of your Akubra...really like the color, if it's a true charcoal (is the hat close to the photos?), and like the lines as well, especially the wide brim. My question is-how soft is the felt? It need not be floppy soft, actually rather some guts to... -

Caps: leather sweatbands?
could someone show a few caps that they are particularly fond of? on OFAS, whilst looking for fedoras, I'm overwhelmed by caps ( I'm overwhelmed by most anything). The ones I see are nothing to write home about, so I'm asking to see what the cognoscenti know and have... -
Stiff Starch Shirts: The Japanese Method

Newbie: Lucky or Sucker, you decide...
for the folks that have been dreaming of something like this happening, it does! And with more frequency than you would imagine; after being in Antiques for over 16-17 yrs. (a newbie in that profession), I've had my share of untouched stores, houses sealed up for 50+years, storage garages... -

New Champ!
NIce Hat!! I've had a few Champs, and the hat is underrated- felt is of good quality, and they all seem to have a flair of their own; and the color on yours-oh boy... wind trolley (my experience) simply unhook it - it should be doubled around the single cord, unwrap it around the crown, and... -

Impulse buy -- did I waste half a "C" note?
too bad when hats you want fall into your lap. really. I'll send a sympathy card...we only spend most of our lives looking for these silly things (or so it seems)-next time you get the "impulse" to buy, give me a holler & I'll put my order in. Heck. size, color,style...poor guy-must be in shock:eek: -
