Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest
In that picture above, I think the two keepers are front-center (the Mallory, gray, sort of narrow Playboy-type ribbon) and far rear-right (BB-Locke, heavy felt with sewn over welt, liner has gone missing). Trying to figure out creasing currently. -
Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest
The box with this bunch finally showed up today. I think two of the hats will work for me, including--amazingly enough--the one I was really taking a gamble on: the Brooks Brothers hat. He gave no size for it, but it turns out to be a 7 3/8 and actually fits (once owned by someone named 'Ken')... -

Stetson Sovereign (WITH PICS)

Briefcases
^Most of the Classic Luggage offerings are English made, and thus relatively more expensive due to the exchange rate. You are also getting a more...refined bag, I suppose one would say. From the pictures I have seen they are more aesthetically pleasing than the Custom Hide bags. From the reviews...- AlanC

Do you own a Tux?
There's no such thing as gray houndstooth tuxedo pants. They could possibly be morning trousers, in which case you could wear them with a morning jacket (unlikely to need to) or use them for a stroller. Your best course is simply to treat them as odd trousers to wear with a sportcoat or sweater. -
