    Show off your Porkpies

    Here's a hat that's a double first for me--my first porkpie, and the first time I've ever had, or seen, a vintage hat with this bound and welted brim treatment:

    Stiff hat or soft hat?

    I think it all depends on how well the hat conforms to the shape of the head. With a top hat or bowler, it's essential that the hat be exactly the right sizeand shape or else the hat could pinch and be painful. For a soft hat (i.e. a fedora), there is a certain amount of give or conforming...

    Akubra Campdraft 7 1/2 Glen Grey

    :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek: I sent the hat hat out just before the strikes began. The strikes are now in full swing--nobody has any gas for their cars. The gas stations have been blockaded, even supermarkets are running out of things. The postal service seems relatively normal, but the...

    Ribbon source

    I ordered ribbon from these folks a while back. It reached me quickly and it is real hat ribbon--it can be swirled and stretched. http://www.advintagefedora.de/shop/Hat-Trimmings?XTCsid=2e41hi987t9o461j3hiuf4ven1

    Akubras are hard to wear out where ever you wear them!

    Akubra Campdraft 7 1/2 Glen Grey

    If only the danged brim were a quarter of an inch shorter! It's a fantastic hat but it just seems to cowboyish on my head. I am keeping my silverbelly Campdraft, though. I may go off on a safari someday and need an awesome, wide-brimmed hat!

    Akubra Campdraft 7 1/2 Glen Grey

    SOLD! The hat has been spoken for--I'll be putting up more goodies for big heads soon. I have too many hats (according to my wife[huh]), and I've decided to sell some that get no wear. First up is a Glen Grey Campdraft size 7 1/2 or 60 cm. Nice hat, but I never got out of the door with...

    Self-Conscious?

    I'm never self conscious about wearing a hat. I'm just as ugly without a hat as I am with one, so why not wear it?:p

    Wow, looks like Art made the perfect hat for you! It looks super--it just needs a nice feather in the band;)

    Thanks for the addidtional pics, Daizawaguy! That hat is an inspiration; the crown looks very similar to the crown on my Resistol 990--a great shape!

    Art Fawcett VS Hall of Fame

    :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap Great hat--when can we see a noggin-shot? How would you compare the crown of this one to your other stingy VS hats? I've been wanting to ask Art for a stingy for a long time...
