    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Hi Same here James. If you have it on DVD, listen to Mel Brooks' monologue on the movie. The sheriff was SUPPOSED to be Richard Pryor. Mel also wanted John Wayne for the Waco Kid. Later

    Show us your Guns!

    Hi I have a CZ-452 American, but I wish I had the Euro stock, it's much better offhand. I use mine in the CMP Sporter matches. I have a Weaver K-series 6x scope on it. Later

    Akubra Overload

    Hi The Akurbra Sombrero is the hat of Bush Tuckerman, who had a bush TV show from 1988 to 1990 I think. later

    Do you see a time when you stop wearing vintage?

    Hi I never thought about wearing vintage as being "immature", sagging may be immature, but not vintage. I saw vintage as traditional, possibly old-fashioned, but not immature. I don't wear vintage, but I do wear traditional clothing. I work in aerospace, so sport coats have been out side the...

    Hi I have a Sun Body Rough Rider hat (5.75 inch open crown and 3 inch brim) that I wear for grungy chores, it has Stampede strings for the windy weather in Kansas. Later

    The Fedora Store revamped website

    Hi Duane My reasoning was that they're already buying felt in those colors, why worry about what shape it will be in later? At least I ASSUME that since the colors are on the website, that they sell hats in those colors? Later

    Ask a question, get an answer

    Hi If possible, try hats on before you buy too many. I've been fairly lucky. The hat I like least is still worn twice a week in the winter, but the crown could be a little higher... The reason I mention trying on is that I think that Homburg hats are about the coolest thing I've seen...

    Ask a question, get an answer

    Hello to Bexley England. With respect to hats and hair length, I think that following history may be a good way to go. Many Old West (American) cowboys etc had longer hair and wore wider brimmed hats. The city Slickers who had access to a barber on a more regular basis had short hair and wore...

    Your TOP Bogart movie..?

    Hi I voted for Casablanca on the list, but I like "To have and have not" the best. The Maltese Falcon, Casablanca, Treasure, The Caine Mutiny, and Dark Passage have better acting, but watching Bogie and Bacall actually fall in love (To have...) made the movie better. Later

    Boardroom style, bedroom comfort!

    Hi I agree on the pinstripe hoodie, but the sweat dress pants would have been a good idea if they would have left the knee pad thing off. You really wouldn't have known the difference. They have some strange stuff, I especially liked the woman's drinking vest.

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    Good luck Tom, I'm a weasel about lent and New Year's Resolutions. In 2007, I gave up McDonald's. I HATE McDonald's burgers etc. I finally went back to McD's in August 2009 because somebody from work wanted to go. On a side note, the yuppie bars (or whatever you call a 20 year old's meat...

    9mm or 45cal

    Hi The only thing you can be sure of hitting when firing from your sport coat pocket is (wait for it)... your sport coat pocket. Later (Note, this is real good information, I'm an NRA Pistol Instructor) :D

    White & Davis Western Hats 1929

    Hi, I'll take the middle hat right side on Page 2 please, the El Favorite. I guess everybody thought that they were Calvin Coolidge with those big crowns and wide brims. Later

    News Article on Tampa Florida Hat shops

    Hi I just noticed this at the bottom of a news article I was looking at. http://tampa.cbslocal.com/2012/02/21/best-hat-shops-in-tampa/ There are links to several Tampa hat shops etc. I haven't actually READ the article yet. Later

    Movies you wished you had never watched.

    Hi There's good points and bad about that. If you read the James Bond books, then watch the movies, you have twice the plot since the movies "based" on the books don't follow the book (at all in a few cases). "The Spy Who Loved Me" was the furthest from the book, both were worth the trouble...

    Western, anyone?

    Hi I'm well aware of the fact that anything you're selling is worth what you can get somebody to pay you for it. ONE THE OTHER HAND, exactly how much better can a 100% beaver hat be that say a 100% beaver hat? I know you an sand a while longer, but really. Right now, Major Moore's 100%...

    when do you guys wear a panama?

    Now Paul, you KNOW you have to Google stuff to know for sure. I'm pretty sure that the reasoning behind NOT using Memorial Day and Labor Day is to have a new separate holiday we are supposed to buy greeting cards for. Ha Ha ... Oh heck, that's not funny because it's probably the REAL...

    New Stetson 4X Beaver National Forest Service Size Hat 7 LO

    Hi I'm a 7 3/8, so buying it would be a bad idea for me. I do have some questions. How old is it? The pictures I could find show forest service workers in Montana peaks. I looked quickly and found National PARK Service pictures by the hundreds, but few National Forest Service pics. Just...

    The Fedora Store revamped website

    Hi Hope you like retirement Duane. I like the new website, but there are are a few mistakes. The Stetson Open Range is just labeled as a Range 4x in one place and there is an Open Range in another place. At least it seems like the same hat. There also seem to be more Stetsons on...

    when do you guys wear a panama?

    Hi again I do have a bone Buckaroo Hatters Rough Rider hat that gets Spring and Summer wear, when I don't think I'll sweat through it. I can't see having a dress hat with sweat stains, cowboy hat yes, Homburg no, white hats NO, nice Fedoras NOOOO. Later
