    AUCTION #44: Adam - Royal - "Crosby" Porkpie - Size 7 1/2 - C0000228901

    End Time Just noticed that Auction #42 ends at 9pm Eastern on Saturday the 21st. I assume this one is the same. Anj

    7 1/8 Bespoke Optimo Fedora

    Small! Believe me, if it fit me, it would have been gone in the first hour! Good luck, Anj

    Campdraft

    When my Campdraft arrived, it was not a good fit for my long oval head. Thanks to advice from J.T., I soaked the hat in cold water, and then wore it off and on as it broke into my head shape. Much better after that. Anj

    Anyone recognize THIS style of '50s fedora?

    If you're a 7 1/2 or so, your vintage options are more hard to come by, and more expensive. It can be done, though. Anj

    Anyone recognize THIS style of '50s fedora?

    What size are you? Depending on size, you might find something great on ebay without breaking the bank. I think you'll spend around $140 for a new, fur felt Stetson. Check out the vendors who support the site here... you'll probably find something. It is best, though, early on in your...

    Anyone recognize THIS style of '50s fedora?

    Whippet I don't think that hat has a bound edge, as a Whippet would. It actually looks a lot like the upcoming Stetson Nostalgia, although maybe with a shorter brim. Anj

    Anyone recognize THIS style of '50s fedora?

    Mad Men I watched the show, and figured it was a typical Stetson from the era (or meant to be... I don't know if the show's hats are custom). It's a good looking hat. What annoys me is that the actor (Jon Hamm) doesn't seem to like wearing it. He throws it off as quickly as possible. Anj

    Milans from Optimo & Panama Grading

    I didn't know that offered Milans. They look very nice, and I'm sure they're very well-made. I assume they have a price point similar to the felts and Montecristis, though. That's a lot more than I can swing. Anj

    Akubra Campdraft - WOW.

    The felt is a little heavier than my ORs and OR clones. It's a little stiff out of the box, but can be worked with. The Campdraft is my go-to hat if it's cool and rainy. Anj

    Akubra Campdraft - WOW.

    Nice Yeah... it's a helluva hat for the money, isn't it? I have one in Silverbelly, too, and it was well worth the wait. You were a little luckier than me on the long oval fit, but I was able to work with mine until I got a really good fit. Anj

    Ande1964 and AlanC Meet in Person- Consume Bison!

    Our beloved bartender, AlanC, moved to my neck of the woods recently, so we arranged to meet for lunch yesterday. I chose Ted's Montana Grill (I know... it's a chain, but it's fantastic!) in Leawood, Kansas. Alan was as friendly and gracious in person as he always is here. It was really a...

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

    Sunday Impulse Just spent a half hour staring at the computer, wondering about pulling the trigger on this hat. In the end, as usual, my less prudent side won out. I've been wanting a light gray, and Borsos in my size don't show up much, even relatively modern ones, like this. I may not...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Stetson Sueade Finish Sharp as ever, D-Man, and I love your dad's Panama. I was sporting my recently-restored Gray Stetson 3X Suede Finish today. I used a little stiffener on the brim, so it's holds its shape a little better. Overall, the hat is still very soft. Anj

    I think I agree with JT... go green or go thin! Anj
