    Hello, I'm new to the Lounge.

    Welcome, Topdog. My wife and I love your hometown. Some of the best food in the country, especially the she crab soup just about anywhere in town and the low country omelet and the hominy grits at The Hominy Grille. Nothing like the Battery on a spring night.

    Esquire comment on hats

    I remember the style-question columnist for either "GQ" or "Esquire" making a crack about hats within the last couple of months, but I believe that the February 2009 issue of "GQ" has an article about hats making a comeback. BTW, I was also told that Tom Brokaw said within the last couple of...

    Opinions of Baily hats?

    I have four Baileys - a Tino, a New Yorker Sinatra, an Ephod, and a Fairbanks. The Sinatra is the only one that looks "vintage." None of them feel that way. They are good everyday hats, though.

    A Special Barbisio

    7 3/8 doesn't seem like a good size for vintage hats.

    What's your signature hat?

    Interesting thread Interesting thread, and a subject I've been thinking about lately. I don't have a signature look at this point. I wear a different hat every day, although I tend to only wear fedoras. I have two western-style hats, but I haven't worn them in months. If you wear a western hat...

    HAT FOR OBAMA Godspeed Josh Shayne

    "Hatless Jack" I'm sure most everyone on FL has read "Hatless Jack." This reminds me of the hatters and Kennedy. Obama should definitely wear a hat.

    Two hats on one CNN panel!

    Wow, I would have thought that Gergen would know better. That hat doesn't work.

    Tennessee Hatters

    I apologize in advance if this has been covered in previous threads. Couldn't find it in a search. Question for all you Tennesseans: do you have recommendations for hatters in our great state?

    self-concious in my fedora

    Back in style Wearing your hats around the house is the best suggestion. Look at yourself in the mirror. You have to build up some mental images of you in hats so you know how you look. Build up a collection of different hats so you have options for different outfits, different occasions, etc...

    Post New Hats Here!

    nickn5, I really like that Christy's. Great hat. I'm waiting for an Akubra Stylemaster, similar color. If it's the hat that I think it is, it might become my favorite hat, too.

    The Dumbest Comment I Ever Heard

    Do huh? I attended a going-away gathering for a friend Thursday night. I wore a Scala Bogart style, which I took off when I entered the bar. This friend of mine showed up wearing a brown, leather Kangol. Okay, fine. It's his head. He and I left at the same time with another friend. I put my hat...

    Ordering an Akubra from Everything Australian

    jecoe, Thanks for the pics. I never get a firm idea of the hat color from the seller's online pics. Yours is much better. Is Hatsdirect the only seller of the Federation? That's my understanding from the website.

    Ordering an Akubra from Everything Australian

    Yes, they had the color in stock. I thought about the moonstone, but that would have been a three-month wait. I think I'll get a Federation in moonstone in the next month or two.

    Ordering an Akubra from Everything Australian

    Everything Australian I bought an Akubra Stylemaster (mid gray) from Everything Australian Monday night. With shipping, it was $22 cheaper than the same hat from Hats Direct. Couple of questions: 1. Any thoughts as to why Everything Australian was so much cheaper? 2. This is my first...
