It's actually a very nice cap... but that's a doozie of a price tag! :eek:
Torpedo, that new one looks like a similar cut to the Hat People caps we have? Except maybe a little more in the front and a little less on the sides. Would you say I'm about right?
Alright, I'm reposting this with a slight price drop and some new pictures. I got a new camera that actually takes nice pictures indoors!
Keep in mind that this is one of those made-to-order-only Westeds. I think it hits the mark very well. As Wested says, "This jacket is an authentic...
Dave, and everyone else; The mods asked us to hold off on the gallery threads while they work on how best to organize them. I say, let this thread remain a casual chat thread, and give Admin time to decide what's what. We don't want to upset them and kill the chances for a real gallery area...
I think Bruce is right, but it comes down to what one likes. I mean, the PB and Miller milans are opposites in terms of stiffness/floppiness. If you like a stiff straw, Miller will be worth more to you. Although, by experience, I prefer Dobbs instead of Miller for the stiff milan straws...
That is a great combo. Did you have the hat made to match the tie? I'd love to see close-ups of the hat, if they are handy. I'm wrangling up ideas for my an order in mid summer. I know, that's a while. But when you have as many hats as I do, you struggle more with ideas.
Dr.U; The hat is great, and the white color splashes make the hat. By the way, I had trouble with the photos on COW as well as here.
I'm guilty of posting new hat threads instead of adding to the one sticky thread meant to reduce the Mod's work. It happens. Nothing to fret over.
I have...
If we sticky the galleries, eventually we won't have room left on the page for other threads. I say we kindly ask the Mods for a new forum section that is just for gallery posts. No chat, no questions, just pictures and identification.
The PB's are definitely not plastic, and I'm thinking that the water would have destroyed paper straw. Thus, my conclusion is that it's real straw.
In hind sight, I do wish I had gotten a brown one, but what the heck.
OK, the trip has been booked! I'll be rolling in the afternoon of May 29 and leaving the afternoon of the 31st.
I found a place to stay in Brookline, near Coolridge Corner, and got tickets to see John Williams at the Pops.
At some point I will squeeze in a whale watch and some time at Faneuil...
That "new" has been there for at least 3 or 4 years. [huh]
I own one, and I can say it has it's pros and cons.
Cons; It's very floppy milan weave, so don't expect it to hold the look you see on the web page. Also, the packaging that PB uses causes the crown to taper by the time you get...
Actually, VS wait times have gone up. Optimo is not a one-man operation, I don't think. But VS, JPD, and each AB is very much a one man show. Wait time should be reflected by demand. Jimmy's demand just isn't that high.
Based on what I have read, nobody can get in touch with him at all...
I don't dress like I do to be different. I never really liked the idea of being different. I do like being me, though, not what others want me to be. If, by some chance, the day comes that being me does not make me different, all the better. [huh]
