    Vintage Sunglasses

    Ugh, this reminds me of my old "vintage sunglasses" thread...

    Ever yearn for a vintage name?

    An old hat box that I have has the name "Howard Eames" written on it pencil. Ever since getting that hat I have always thought that was the single coolest name I've ever heard. I've elaborated with that name so much since then, heck I've even created a fictional character after it. I should just...

    That is actually one of the better modern suits I've seen this year. Where is it from? I like it alot.

    Fabrics for Cold Weather Suits?

    It's funny because as I was writing that I had this nagging they-aren't-going-to-like-that feeling in the back of my head and completely ignored it. Poor choice of words. I meant to say, "discussion". :p

    Steampunk, Dieselpunk, etc.

    Even something like Steam-age or Steam-fiction would be more acceptable.

    Fabrics for Cold Weather Suits?

    While I understand perfectly well where Steven is coming from, I agree wholeheartedly with BK and, in essence, the original rule. That being said, we are getting very off-topic. Shall we drop this confrontation?

    tonyb.....hatter and a gentleman

    Wow, that does look good. Probably personal preference, but I think a tighter pinch would really give that hat some life.

    Fabrics for Cold Weather Suits?

    I'm talking about the blanket-level stuff. Feeling that on my skin just drives me nuts. On a similar note...I used to know a fella that was afraid of porcelain.

    Panoramic picture tour of a WW2 sub

    I remember taking a tour of this submarine when I was a kid! Wow, that was so long ago, I can't remember a bloody thing about it except for the torpedo tubes. I should check this out again some time.

    Making my first leather jacket- the shell is done

    Holy cow, that's amazing. I could never, in a hundred years, picture myself making my own leather jacket. You have skill my friend. One might consider going to the next level with your abilities.

    Fabrics for Cold Weather Suits?

    Personally flannel gives me the willies, so I would suggest wool. I have a wool 40's suit that kept me very comfortable last winter.

    Classic Hat Makers List

    I don't see DeSina listed anywhere. I hardly know anything about them, but they certainly make some interestingly classic looking lids.

    ...because every time I picked up the hat I would feel like I was putting it on backwards! lol

    Decade that was the peak of hat quality?

    Personally I don't think that there can ever be a definitive comparison of decade quality, being as each different brand of hats had different methods for making many different types of felts. There's just too many variables to make any type of conclusion in that regard. As far as speculation...

    tonyb.....hatter and a gentleman

    Wow, looks like I missed alot. I had no idea Tony was doing this all of a sudden. Great! It's hard to find a custom hatter who actually knows his vintage styles...this is very good. That being said, the hat looks wonderful. Truly...although I have to admit I tihnk that ribbon would drive me nuts!

    The dry block?

    Personally, I HATE reblocking my hats by soaking them, because I always end up losing my perfect bash (and I'm not the kind of person that has alot of luck doing it again). Is there any problem with reblocking your hat dry? Just pull it over the block, let it sit for maybe a day or...
