    Show us your TIES

    Warbaby, in all my vast thrifting I don't think I've ever seen an ascot in the piles of ties. Great find!

    LEATHER RESTORATION

    ^ Good to know. I have a pair of alligator shoes and I've been wondering what to use on them.

    Fascinating. And what fun!

    LEATHER RESTORATION

    I've not used Pecards, but the guys at COW are big on it. I see they have an antique leather dressing, which might be just the thing. I've used Obenauf's, and would recommend it. Since it has lost some color you might try Meltonian, which is available in most imaginable colors. It treats the...

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    Great hat, Anj. Maybe I can help you bankroll that one in a week or so. By the way, what's your set size limit on collection size since something must go? Spellflower, sorry to hear about that. I use esnipe and have never had a problem with it if you want to give them a try.

    The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD

    Another great hat with the trademark JtL C-Crown™. :eusa_clap When you sent it to Optimo for a cleaning exactly what did they do? It seems all the original parts are there so how do they clean without disassembling?

    You could call it a... hat trick.

    The Adventurer's Gear Thread

    Not necessarily vintage looking, but of high quality and made in the US are Red Oxx bags. I don't have any of their rucksacks/backpacks, but I do own some other pieces and I highly recommend them. True adventure gear.

    What are you wearing today??

    Excellent job, Anthony. I'm making plans to wear a stroller this coming Sunday. I'm afraid I've not graduated to attached collars yet. I would like to pick up a striped shirt with contrast collar for stroller wear, though.

    Jimmy, are you getting an Indy or another style? Marc's Aviator model looks nice. I've heard nothing but great things about Marc's hats, but the exchange rate is so brutal right now I just can't pull the trigger.

    Cufflinks and Shirt Studs.

    ^I like the hammered balls, JEEP. Here are some pics of my new stud box. As stated earlier, this one went a bit higher than I wanted, but I couldn't resist. It was made in England for Saks. I believe it's pigskin, and it has a suede interior. I'm very pleased with it. Group shot:

    Art Fawcett VS Hall of Fame

    Fantastic, Big Man! :eusa_clap What a great hat, and such a fine inspiration. I like the color, too. It looks like it was made for you. ;)

    Yes, this is my first AB. It's been on order since June. RBH does have one with another on the way, I'm pretty sure.

    I made my order for a gray in late February. I figured I'd get another order in before the price jump hits in May, plus to beat the (even greater) rush of orders then. It's not like I need another hat, anyway, so waiting is fine.That said, I'm really looking forward to getting them. The only...

    Ken, congratulations on the new model. I hope you have continued and growing success. Don't be a stranger here.

    There's nothing to be gained by a continued analysis of a thread on another forum. If anyone wants to add anything about the hats that Steve and Marc make that would be great. My AB should be here next week (fingers crossed)!

    Very nice. An American classic. Congratulations! You might try some black Meltonian cream on your faded black backpack.
