    Knox Twenty - or is it?

    This one's a mystery. The liner says Knox, the sweat and the labels under it say different, or do they? It's big, has a Cav edge, 5" crown bashed, and a 2-5/8" brim. Sadly, there's a hole at the front of the crown, but the felt feels nice and it has a great vintage look. Click the smaller...

    What size brim do you prefer

    A young, jowly, grey-haired detective. lol That's a 1956 Clipper, and I only wish it were mine. If I recall correctly, that was the only year that Packard spun the Clipper name off to be its own brand. It was also the last year Packards were built in the old Detroit factory. This one is...

    MissUSA's conduct & rehab

    Beautiful and fit, I can handle. Trouble is, I have a low boredom threshold, so "Not boring" trumps (no pun intended) everything else. :)

    The quality of a suit

    Gotta buy some lottery tickets. If I hit the big number, I'll open The Every Day Suit Factory, specializing in suits a guy can wear every day, all day, and drive a car in or change a lightbulb in without one's arms being restricted. I'll be sure to have sizes to fit everybody from Baron Kurtz...

    What size brim do you prefer

    Dobbs 2-1/4" brim: Dobbs 2-3/4" brim: That's about the range that works for me. I've sold all but two of my stingy brims.

    New acquisition: Scott & Co top hat

    I wore my Adam silk plush topper with white tie and tails to the company Christmas party yesterday, and it was a big hit. I'm hoping somebody got pictures I can post, as I didn't bring mine.

    Your hat this weekend..

    Yep, I need to get something like that, once I drop some poundage. I went on a tour of a gemstone mine in Pala, near San Diego, and I wore that hat with a tan Dickies shirt and trousers. Not quite Indy Jones, but close. :)

    Your hat this weekend..

    Thanks! I found a Dobbs Homburg with that color combination, and then started looking for a fedora with the same colors, and that one popped up. The Cav edge was a bonus. :)

    Let's See Your Watches! The Vintage Watch Thread.

    My dream watch would be one actually worn by a Spitfire pilot in WWII. Maybe one worn by a Luftwaffe pilot as well to complete the set. :)

    Your hat this weekend..

    Here are some self-portraits at work. The hat is a Dobbs, with the widest Cav-edged brim I have. The first two are in our control room, where I fill in one or two nights a week, and the last is in front of a 1956 Clipper by Packard that just happens to be at the back of our parking lot.
