    Some tips to help those who are clueless about men's fashion

    Based on what I read, I agree with most of this. Some things that stuck out for me: Pleats: I'm not a fan of them, and I currently don't wear pants (chinos or dress) that have them. For me, they would tend to bulge out my hip. I'm speaking of modern pants that I would wear up to my belly, not...

    Hair cuts

    I think so, the "businessman's cut" is pretty much any sort of haircut of about that length parted or combed back. I showed the above photo to my barber, and although I ask for my bangs hanging down to the tip of my nose, he seems to think that Depp's hair length in that picture is right up...

    We have a new "OLD" Bartender.

    Congratulations Art Fawcett, and I hope all goes well with you!

    Pomade

    Thank you for the quick response DJH. I tried to see if they had a website, but it was very hard for me to try to locate that one for some reason.

    Pomade

    Does anybody know when Dax was founded, or some of it's products were introduced? Dax Wave and Groom is my favorite hair product, and I'm going to be buying another can soon, as I'm almost out. I was wondering about a little history of my favorite brand. Thanks!

    Modern Stetson Open Road

    But the felt didn't look deformed or anything unusual, after drying? What about the felt color bleeding (a sort of red/pink color on my last hat), did you experience that or no? Thanks, it seems like your hat did well.

    What are you wearing today??

    Happy birthday Tom! It's not the same getting older, isn't it? Even if just a bit. I remember my high school years almost effortlessly, and yet now I'm 22, right out of community college and getting ready to transfer. Cool hats too, those are all yours?

    Modern Stetson Open Road

    I'd like to ask again. Would any loungers, if you own a modern Stetson Open Road or any of their 4X western hats, care to explain how your hat held up during rain? I haven't worn my new one in rain yet, but I think that was the demise of my old one that I sent back to Shepler's. It had strange...

    The Open Road Guild

    Thanks. I usually wear it with the top of the brim rolled up, but I've taken to snapping it down lately. It's more protection in the sun, and looks cool when my glasses darken to become sunglasses outdoors. I still haven't worn my hat in the rain; I'm afraid to, as I remember what happened to my...

    Adventure! Fedora Lounge Folks in Action!

    I went hiking in the hills near my house, no good pics of it to show unfortunately, although this is a little something anyway: Because of technical difficulties, I couldn't really upload the picture on my Mac, so I used the photo application to get it instead. Very poor quality, I know...

    The Open Road Guild

    Open Road bump. I wore mine (modern) on a two hour hike in the hills. It's been getting some good wear lately, and I think the sweatband has noticeably shrinked down a little bit, although looser than my Fed IV or vintage Stetson.

    What are you wearing today??

    Today I'm wearing some casual/outdoors clothing, Levi's 505, a cotton twill safari shirt from Old Navy, worn brown Docker's shoes, and my Stetson Open Road. It's very typical of my style; I'm not too formal, as I prefer the casual side of Golden Era inspired looks. I went on a two hour hike in...

    Is it a bad idea to wear a double-breasted suit coat as a sport coat?

    Just for your information, I didn't end up getting the suit jacket, but thank you for the advice anyway. I'll certainly keep it in mind for future reference. Thank you for the historical references as well, it seems that it was done fairly often in these periods.

    Aero Jacket Question (Also, are there quality jackets under 300 dollars?)

    Any more word on B-6 comfortable temperature range, before I may reconsider and go for an Indiana Jones jacket instead? For now, the one Aero I was interested in was the B-6 (ruled out the D-1 because of a detail I didn't like), but I'm still thinking things through. If in my area during the...

    Excessive posting? ... Interesting.....

    This is a thread where you can chat about anything, right? Kind of our answer to the chat box issue right now? Well, just so I've got something to chat about, I've bought a khaki safari shirt from Old Navy, and the sleeves are a bit on the long side. Hopefully they'll shrink a little after a...

    Aero Jacket Question (Also, are there quality jackets under 300 dollars?)

    I'm not sure if Aero allows it, they probably can do this for me, but can the color of a B-6's leather be different from the seal and redskin ones? How about for something in-between that, like a dark brown, but not as dark as seal, and perhaps honey/tan colored shearling instead of off-white...

    The Adventurer's Gear Thread

    Old Navy sells a pretty good looking safari shirt, and I couldn't pass it up; it was on sale at the store: http://www1.assets-gap.com/Asset_Archive/ONWeb/Assets/Product/119/119112/big/on119112-00vliv01.jpg It's 100% cotton, unlike my polyester/cotton blend Cabela's shirt which I also like. I'm...

    Aero Jacket Question (Also, are there quality jackets under 300 dollars?)

    OK, there's an issue I seem to have with the D-1 in terms of looks; it has what looks like sheepskin "stormflap" on the front, going beyond the button-up part. I would like my jacket to be without that, so that when I unbutton it, it doesn't cause an uneven appearance. My G-1 does that, and I've...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    The Claude Rain version... I haven't seen that one yet, was it good, and accurate to the original book? I've read the Gaston Leroux novel, but I've only seen the Gerard Butler and Emmy Rossum film. I should also watch the Lon Chaney version in its entirety, I've only seen parts of it.

    Excessive posting? ... Interesting.....

    Hello there! How's it been going? Yeah, those are my initials, and it was my old username, but I decided to change it because someone else had one like it (with periods). My handle here now is based off of one of my very favorite films/character. For the past couple months I've been posting...
