    Dove Gray vs Silverbelly

    Well, some hatters call Silverbelly "Dove Gray". Best to ask the Sydney hatter for clarification - she might know. Silverbelly is a strange, neutral color that I can never decide if I like. Like you, the silvery aspect attracts me, but I don't like the tan look, which just seems like dirty...

    Stetson IJ Hat

    Yeah, they may not be super-valuable, but if you can grab one up cheap, you can probably turn a profit. They are, I feel, the best licensed Indy hats ever made, except for that REALLY expensive one that's out now. I wanted one of these SOOOO bad when I was a kid, but the big price tag kept me...

    What hat for NYC?

    Having spent considerable time in "tourist mode" in NYC in June - Panama! You will curse bringing felt with you. You'll hate it, and might destroy the thing yourself. Also, get a hat rain cover, if you can, or a small umbrella. If it worries you, stop by a NYC hat shop and pick up a cheap...

    Hat storage and humidity.

    Keep them off the floor, and I use cedar balls in the boxes. It helps repel moths, fend off humidity, and prevent odors.

    Straw Hat Day 2010: What hat are you wearing?

    Too wet for straw today. :( If I had, it would have been a cheapy paper straw to go get the mail.

    ...Downer Miller Explorer hat

    The Downer will have the back down permanent, like a rain hat. It will not go up. The normal Explorer will go up or down, when you want. I would say they are a little over priced for the quality, but not too bad. I have owned Millers and was happy with them. They just are not great for...

    Borsalino Panama Fino?

    Yeah, if you're willing to shell out that much for a Panama, go to Bob.

    "Newsboy" cap recommendations.

    I see why you favor the salt & pepper. I think I might have found my summer cap. I like them all, tpo say the least, but the S&P has a fairly neutral look, and a lighter summery coloration. I'll ask about cut when the time comes. Maybe it will help.

    "Newsboy" cap recommendations.

    That would be great. I'm hoping to pick up a light weight cap with a leather sweatband this summer. I was thinking linen, but I suppose chambray wouldn't be so bad.

    "Newsboy" cap recommendations.

    I like what I see, Viper Man. Do you know if he only does cotton twill, or if that just happens to be what's up right now?

    FS: Stetson Windham, Black, 7 1/2

    Asking $110 plus shipping. Almost in new condition. I wore it a few times, but it has been ignored since I got a black homburg and a black VS. Unusual bound and welted brim edge. Nicest current Stetson felt I have encountered so far - not like the Temple at all (although it's listed as...

    Prom

    There's nothing wrong with wearing a hat for the prom. However, do your self a favor - since proms are school functions, make sure they don't have a policy against it. You don't want some meat-fisted chaperone confiscating it and storing it who-knows-where. As long as there's no rule against...

    Packable Panama

    I know you asked Blaine, but... no, they are not. Always be sure they are described as rollable or packable.

    "Newsboy" cap recommendations.

    Hat People caps are adjustable, and also made to custom measurements. Hanna's are not adjustable, but I think they will do in between sizes if asked.
