    At the Dog Track... The Whippets

    Thanks for the details. I figured there must be a story there! While the one that fits is a great looking Whippet, it's still a bit of a shame the other doesn't fit - it's a visually interesting color. I'm sure you can offload it if you are of a mind to do so!

    At the Dog Track... The Whippets

    Delectans, as you are wearing the 7 1/2, I guess the other size 7 doesn't fit? Also, what color would you call the second one?

    Billy, I would have thought you would lament the trade of an Adam for an ORlol Alex, nice hat - and it goes particularly well with your blue shirt. MV and Alan, again you guys have fished a couple nice ones from the bay.

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    Here's a pair to draw to... Elvis was the king, but it would be hard to vote against the Beatles in terms of influence. Regarding the Sinatra hat, it would be quite interesting to see the seller's letter of "autenticity.":D

    Hat comeback

    Head coverings have been around for millenia. Hats as we tend to know and love them here, that brief, shining era of wide-brimmed fur felt hats of the late 19th and first half of the 20th centuries, well, that dog's probably had it's day. Life is too fractured, the world has moved on more than...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Well it might drop into the high 40's here tonight. BRRrrrrrr!! I got a little chilly riding the motorcycle home earlier tonight. Sorry folks, there's enough other problems here in Southern California that at least we usually have the weather to brag about. Nice hats today!

    Ask a question, get an answer

    To summarize, I'd like to ask another question. Is it correct to say that the word fedora, as used by hat manufacturers, retailers and customers, encompasses most brimmed hats, and that these can be found in numerous combinations of styles and qualities? That's a pretty general question, but...

    Despite Johnny J's thoughts above, you still wear that stingy pretty well and if it works for your traveling purposes, then go for it. I don't think it looks like the more multi-colored and patterned stingies you see on the youngsters these days. If you need inspiration in order to be more...

    Whoops! I guess you can disregard Audrey as the thread is "He's famous for his hat."

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    Alex, as Yeps posited, you'll need to practice some diligence and patience. I fished one of my finest lids from the 'bay for $56, shipping included because is was poorly listed. I could tell it was probably a decent hat, but it threw others off enough that it was a good gamble. This is a hat...

    Some really nice ones today! Michaelshane, I love your photos - they are a pleasure to see and you wear your hats so comfortably. Nice boots, too. Alan, you and your wife look great, and the 100 is superb. JtL - it's not often we see you wearing a great lid in a t-shirt, especially this...

    SteveAS, I saw your post in the New Hats thread and posted that I hope it fits. I'm glad to see you not only found such a great hat but it fits well too. Score!

    Dan, I'll check my storage. I had a lime green leisure suit I wore to a number of college parties. I was a real ladies magnet:D, as you can imagine...
