Great Shoe Shine Stands across the nation
I agree with you Skyvue and I'm going to make an effort to seek out other shoe shiners in my area. Amazingly, Mario charged only $2.50 for the shine that took him almost 15 minutes. I gave him $6 and felt guilty that I should have given him more.- WineGuy

Great Shoe Shine Stands across the nation
I was in Nordstrom's in the Paramus Park Mall(NJ) the other day to pick up some replacement laces and noticed for the first time that there was a professional shoe shine stand tucked away behind the shoe department. A gentleman named Mario was shining the shoes of a dapper older man and so I...- WineGuy

George Hurrell 40s style photography
I checked him out, nice work, but you are better. Roger James does great retouching and gets that perfect smooth skin look like in the original glamour shots of Hurrell. Ferriera has great composition and good wardrobe but still is too natural looking and appears to do no retouching.- WineGuy

No, I meant Art Fawcett the great American Hatter and sage of the Fedora Lounge. You need to get up to speed on Art if you really want to enjoy the lounge. Check out the Art Fawcett hall of fame thread. -

I get the feeling the folks who complained on styleforum are less appreciative of hats and therefore take a more literal approach to the etiquette. -
Show us your suits
Thanks All! I'd like to use this opportunity to post a question. I posted the same photos on styleforum.net and surprisingly got numerous complaints about me not taking my hat off in my store. To the best of my knowledge, hat etiquette does not require a man to remove his hat in a retail... -

Does anyone make an exact replica of Bogarts Trench coat?

Panama Hat Thread
Thanks Art! BTW, great job on my Resistol! That said, scaber, I was going to recommend Robert Weber aka Panama Bob of Panama Hat Works of Montecristi. After my sour experience with Ultrafino I ended up with a glorious hat from Robert that is worth four times what I paid for it and Bob was... -
Panama Hat Thread
Hi scaber and welcome to the most addictive forum on the web, As a some what new member to the lounge, I'm still not sure what the proper etiquette is for referring people to a lounge vender. I have sung the praise of one hatter in particular because of the great Panama's I got from him and I...
