Was Bogart a Resistol Man?
Speaking of Bogey, I just saw Capt. Yosarrian?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢s vintage Borsalino ?¢‚Ǩ?ìPesca?¢‚Ǩ? that Optimo fashioned into a Bogey and that thing is perfect. Next time I see him I?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢m bringing a camera. Cheers -
Optimo Sky Line
Sorry for not posting pics of it yet. My buddy at work that normally snaps my pictures is on vacation. I'm not clever enough to use a timer :rolleyes:. It's a killer color. It's really rich (richer than the phantom blue). I'll see if I can get some pics up early next week. Cheers -

The Black Hat Brigade
It?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢s kind of ironic (in my case) that a black hat is really unappealing to me, considering that I really like the color black. It seems less versatile to me in a hat (I know that many would disagree). I kind of agree with Andy in that I think of it more for real formal occasions and... -
A Hair-Brained Thought
I get my hair cut every two weeks for 9 bucks (plus a tip) at a place that is decidedly non-frills. The ironic thing is that years ago I tried a place whose main draw was that it was a real throwback to barber shops of old (atmosphere and decor-wise) and they gave me a lousy haircut.

So many questions....
The shape of the block in this case has not much to do with the look of the finished hat. MK got the hat in a heavyweight felt. That has everything to do with the end result. Heavyweight felts are good for some styles and not so good for others. It's vise versa with lightweight felts. In this... -
Bogart Hat pics - Bullets or Ballots (1936)
I wouldn't classify Bogart's brim in those pictures as being wide. He had such a thin face that his brims were on average more on the narrow side. The more narrow brim looks perfect on Bogart (it doesn't look narrow on him). That's what's great about getting a custom made hat. If you don't have... -

My Optimo Hats.
A friend wanted to see some of my Optimo hats online and I realized that many of the old threads are on the old ?¢‚Ǩ?ìFedora Lounge?¢‚Ǩ?. Here are some pics in one spot for convenience. Cheers MORROCCO TAN ?¢‚Ǩ?ìINDYESQUE?¢‚Ǩ? -
Today I crossed the line......
I'll be really interested to see the final hat, although it makes me jealous when I see somebody else's Optimo if I don't have the same model. :D -
Patterson
Even today, many people question the pedigree of the Expedition. I saw Patterson?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢s original Expedition a few weeks ago and it?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢s still the best looking Indy jacket I?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢ve ever seen. Cheers- Rundquist

"New" Vintage Borsalino
Sweet lid. It looks like a Bogie. Wear it well and for heaven's sake take care of it. Cheers
