Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest
That is interesting Zet. I don't know anything about that one so the price seems extraordinary. I think I understand the psychology behind that $500 OR more than I understand what happened with this hat... -

Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest
If the Stetson homburg was a St. Regis it's somewhat understandable. You tend to see them with some regularity on ebay. Strats, Stetson 20's and Borsos seem to be more sought after as well. -

Cowboy Boots
Wow! You posted some good links and gave some good info. Yeah, I think you're right. Our tastes are very similar. I don't currently own a pair of black boots but liked the non-shiny Lucchese's as well. I'm not sure I'd call the Red Wings cowboy boots either. I'd call them work boots. So...- Chinaski

Cowboy Boots
Firstly, welcome to the Lounge, Mercer! If I put a little thought into what you're asking, I believe it boils down to how many pairs and with what type of hide/finish do you need for your particular wardrobe. That said, I think you are the one who needs to answer that question. My boots...- Chinaski

Cowboy Boots
Okay kyboots, I can tell you want to keep this boot conversation flowing so I'll step up to the plate. I'm not a Texan, so I don't have access to a custom bootmaker in every town. I'm in southern California so there are custom surfboard shapers in every town! Be that as it may I'm a boot...- Chinaski

Jaunty, that new one looks great! Speedracerx - I really like the tall crown on your VS!! How tall is it? There's something inviting about a tall crown and narrower brim... Alan, the homburg suits you well. -
30's~40's Work Boots
I believe you're right in that they are specifying the Hathorn uppers are imported and then assembled here. Sounds like an interesting NPR program. I guess we must be pretty efficient if we're able to manufacture cheaper with our higher labor. Thanks for the discussion. I'm still ruminating...- Chinaski

30's~40's Work Boots
I'm definitely wary, because I've heard the China rumors before but do not know the truth. I'll have to see what I can find out. I have seen the Hathorn's before - I take it these are White's less expensive line. Interesting that it says the uppers are imported. It looks to be a nice boot...- Chinaski
