    tonyb.....hatter and a gentleman

    Hi I got one last year in the same colors, but with a wider ribbon, love it. Mine is in charcoal, which is a more rainy color for Seattle. I WAS going to be in Seattle a lot. I just ordered what is effectively a 1898 Cavalry hat from Tony in Sahara (I think), I can't wait. Whine whine. I...

    Best city for vintage living

    Good God man, something must be done, I thought that Beer is one of the food groups back in the Fatherland (Great-Grandmother Mueller nee' Brokamp, Great-Grandfather Berund Mueller, and Great-Great-Grandfather Schroeder). The four food groups ARE Beer, Sausage, Dark Bread, and Strudel aren't...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Wow Bowlerman, that's the FIRST HAT I've seen you in that didn't look great. It needs that extra crown height that went away. The brim and curl is great though. Later

    Panama Hat Thread

    Hi Both Sunbody hats and Peters Brother's hats are also in Houston. Personally I have 4 Sunbody hats, and one that had been crunched too many times over the past 7 years that was getting burnt. I like them all, just keep them moist. I haven't been to Peter Brothers, but they have a custom...

    Whiskey

    Hi Well, first read this: http://www.thefedoralounge.com/showthread.php?25278-Does-Anyone-Drink-Rye-Whiskey Bullit is good. Sazarec is also great. The best mixer is usually Old Overholdt, it's inexpensive and it tastes good. From what I remember of the thread, don't buy Jim Beam Rye... :eeek:

    Post New Hats Here!

    Hi Bowlerman I usually wear a 7 3/8, but own a Sunbody in 7 1/2 that looks big (it is, I tried a John Wayne Cavalry Hat). Are you wearing up a size on the bowlers? I look funny wearing a bowler or derby in my size. I think larger brim might help, but a size up might help too. Just...

    Post New Hats Here!

    That's a fine looking hat. If you had said what it was, without a picture I would have bet it was the weirdest hat in existence. Later

    Show us your Guns!

    Heck,that ain't humor, that's Gawd's Honest TRUTH. When you buy your AK, it shoots a 5 inch group at 100 yards, after you back over it in the mud with the pickup, it shoots 5 inch groups at 100 yards. I am starting to feel the need for a Mosin now though. Later

    Show us your Guns!

    Hi Check the reloading manuals, but they make .311 bullets and possibly Mosin Nagant's could use those. Later

    Decorating a WW2 themed room.

    Hi Dad lived in tents, an actual native grass hut on Wallis Island, and in a pylwood barracks on Guadalcanal. Of course, pylwood walls will make the place hard to sell. He also had a grass mat to keep the bugs off the bed. I have it, but I'm not sure how it worked. Later

    What color trousers in Winter?

    Hi You say you've been wearing white denim for years. Just pick up a couple of pair of Khaki's in slightly different colors. Those will go with most shirts that go with white anyway. Florida is effectively a tropical state. Later

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Hey Chief Don't sell the Derby, you look good in it, a LITTLE silly, but save it for the 4th of July, Halloween, and neighborhood parties. You need a white Henley and suspenders to wear with it. 1890's bartender. Later

    Giant Pith Helmet Thread of Doom

    Hi I got rid of my Pith helmet after wearing it oh, about 2 minutes total in 4 years. Personally, I thought it made me look like I was under a toad stool. I probably won't try again. The Boss of the Plains, Campaign hats (Montana Peak), and Campaign hat (roughrider) meet the outdoors needs...

    2012 Hatty Awards for John Penman and Mike Moore

    Hi Without going back and reading about all of the winners right now, I'm surprised that there aren't more winners from the Lounge, and also surprised that a few of the other winners in the more traditional type hats aren't in the lounge too. At least one or two of the winners were hatters...

    When did Stetson begin using powder in their hat colors?

    Hi Blackthorn I bought a Stetson Temple a few years ago. I'd heard about the powder so I brushed the hat and did see some of the brown flake off. It's been o.k. in the rain since then. No running onto me. Later

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    Yes and thanks to you, I went through an entire jar of maraschino cherries in about 2 months. Old Fashioned's are GREAT.

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    Ah James, you sound a little like me, I HATE VERMOUTH. I don't hat Martini's, I hate Vermouth. I tried making Manhattan's and I hated them too. Wet, dry, don't matter. Gin and Tonic is where it's at. Tonight I had a schooner of Bass ale with swordfish and veggies. Gotta love a place (Fish...
