    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Great posts as usual this weekend fellas, too many to shout out individually, inspirational. I spent the day with Garrett at BSHW and came home with this vintage parabuntal from the hand of Bob Jesse: More hat details here...

    Black Sheep Hat Works

    Juicy details: 2 1/2 brim, crown front 4 3/4, middle 5 3/4 (!), back 5 even. Ribbon is 2 1/8 from the Garrett collection, check out the wind trolley button, matches the ribbon pattern, Bob is slick! This hat weighs 2.25 oz finished, can't even feel it on my head but do notice the brim fluttering...

    Black Sheep Hat Works

    Garret and I paid a visit to Bob today, oh what fun we had. I was excited to pickup this new project, a parabuntal. Finally. I've been looking/waiting seemingly forever. This was a lucky break for me resulting from a deal involving John Galt and Garrett. I ended up with a body too big for...

    Gives me a chance to reference the worlds shortest thread: http://www.thefedoralounge.com/showthread.php?69577-Modern-corrugated-sweatband I believe it serves 2 purposes, allow a bit of air flow and also a bit flexibility with fit. My opinion with no factual support.

    Nice rescue tommyK, lots of good wear left in it. Best way to take a guess at dating it is via the paper label behind the sweat.

    Gustin Jeans 36X38 (35X37)

    Never worn, just tried on. Washed and dried once. Straight fit listed as size 36X38, actually measure 35X37, cuff is 8 3/4", rise is about 11". Japanese indigo ordered a couple yrs back. Fit is too slim for me, my loss is your gain. $65 shipped/fees included N. America only please.

    Hawaiian Shirts - Aloha Shirts

    Another pineapple shirt, I'm always looking for the perfect one, not sure it exists for my peculiar mind. Another Avanti, the seller listed it as silk but didn't mention it was crepe so a nice surprise for me. The crepe weave has the magic property of feeling cool and even damp all the time...
