Hat Pins or Not??
Thank you Mr.Jones. You just answered an unasked question that I had about my vintage Champ. It has a wind chord button just behind the bow. I did not know what that was. I just assumed it was part of the hatband as it matches the cosgrain ribbon exactly. A quick google search gave several...- Colonel seriously.

Hat Pins or Not??
Hello sir. I myself like the hat pins. I have an antique two beaver Stetson pin on my new Stetson Temple. But I am in need of a Resistol and a Champ. Any chance you still have some and would consider selling me a few?- Colonel seriously.

Comment by 'Colonel seriously.' in article 'Classic Cocktails To Teach Your Bartender'
Indeed sir. A proper martini should in fact be Gin. I prefer mine with a twist. One can also just nod in the general direction of France. I too am a fan of Hendricks, but my evening cocktail is always Gordon’s.- Colonel seriously.

I need some HAT help!!!!
Unfortunately the hat was very well loved and there isn’t any stamping left on the sweatband at all.

"Uncontested - The Champ"
The brim is actually 2 3/4. I’ll try to post a few pics tomorrow. I’ve seen a few pics of one just like it from the mid 1950s. Thank for the intel just the same.- Colonel seriously.

"Uncontested - The Champ"
Has anyone had any experience with the Champ Kasmire fedora, circa late 1950s-early 1960s? My research suggests this hat company was an economy brand, but it certainly doesn't feel that way. It’s far smoother and more light weight than either of my two Stetson's, a Sovereign and a Royal, and it...- Colonel seriously.
