    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    If you think something was fishy, you ought to say so, IMO. As you suffered little loss tho' I -personally- would be more inclined to neutral rather than negative. Not to say I have not done both in similar circumstance. What does the rest of his fb look like- i.e.- is this a pattern? How...

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    Hoping so. They are from here in Tennessee, so I feel a certain degree of fealty. I have only ever seen one straw in person. Looked nice. I thought I once heard the felts were made by Rand in Billings, Montana- but I may be mistaken.

    Question They are still in production & readily available. Are you looking exclusively for vintage? And if so, of what vintage?

    Hiya 'Smoke & welcome to ya'! I think velour is simply another type finish for fur felt, though I may be mistaken. I wash my hats in white petrol (stove fuel) which no smell can withstand.

    Achieving the Indiana Jones look...without looking in costume??

    You & I are from the same era. I always wore surplus 'cause it was cheaper & I was a working class hero/University student. I grew up sleeping under (scratchy!) US ARMY wool blankets when my Da' was a poor Grad student. Service clothing always seemed well made & designed -practical &...

    Something I'm missing?

    What is the deal? [huh] Who is the miserable little wet blanket of an s.o.b. who is seemingly rating every other new thread in Hats with a single star? YOU need to either start a thread to YOU'R own liking, teaching us by example, or move along. >sheesh!< ... end of rant keep your powder...

    Straw Open Road Offerings ?

    Miller has a number of Stetson genuine Panamas here but they seem to suffer from a bit of LAC syndrome. (Low-assed crown).

    Straw Open Road Offerings ?

    Hurummph. Both seem to artfully blather around the fact that neither appear to be made of Equadorian toquilla palm bodies which leads me to think you are buying yet another hat made of Chinese newspaper. :mad:

    Any experience w/Montecarlo Run A Muck Genuine Panama Straw Hats?

    They have a few that are not trendy looking crappola. I will likely regret not goin' w/ Panama Bob again, but I have been wanting one of these for a few summers. I like the boxy crown & hope the brim will exceed 2 3/8", as a few reviewers have noted that the hats they received had. Looks...
