Post New Hats Here!
A few weeks ago I posted in the classifieds regarding small size hats for my firstborn, who is due in early February. Thanks to Loungers Johnnyphi, Benzadmiral and Ordinary Guy, I now have 5 excellent hats for when he gets old enough. left to right: mid brown mint Stratoliner 6 1/2... -
WTB Clamp-on Sweatband Initials "R" and "B"
Randooch - try a leather supply company if you don't get any bites here. Sometimes Tandy or another company has letters like that. Frank- frussell

tonyb.....hatter and a gentleman
Thanks boys. Truth be told, I stole part of what I wanted that hat to look like from Handlebart's photos of some of his first TonyB hats. Rusty - I like the 2 1/2" brim a lot, but on some hats it really looks short on me. This hat is great because I also like the way it looks brim-up. Happy... -
tonyb.....hatter and a gentleman
My Tumwater got the nod for Christmas Eve. Made it past two sick toddlers and many tipsy adults and survived without a scratch. My brave spouse is also pictured, at about 8 1/2 months into carrying my giant progeny. I enjoy this TonyB hat more every time I wear it. I forget I've got a hat... -
Choosing the Correct Hat for your Body Type
bowlerman is on the money here, depends on the mood, and also what I'm wearing. I haven't found the "perfect" hat for my face yet. A cowboy hat looks best on me for my own taste, but that's probably because I've been wearing one since I was about 11 months old, when my grandfather bought me my... -

Allie-Maillard Conformateur
Good luck Alan, those old gizmos are super cool. I remember a guy using one to measure my head about 20 years ago at a buckaroo festival here in Southern California, and he had printouts of several famous folks he had done. It was surprising to see how lopsided most people's heads really are... -
Not 1 but 2 vintage Stratoliners!
Thanks to Paul/Benzadmiral's help, I was able to do a long-distance purchase on these two tiny Strats, and should receive them in the mail soon. They should make nice additions to the small collection of hats I have purchased for my soon-to-arrive son. So far, I've got a Johnnyphi Lee Warren... -
WTB - small fedora or western
Thanks to the many Loungers who PM'd me, I now have two mint Adam fedoras and the two 6.5 Stratoliners mentioned in a thread by Benzadmiral on the way. I'm done for now, but will definitely be buying more in a short while. Many thanks to all of you, and Happy Holidays. Frank- frussell

CASH FOR CLUNKERS
Hey Art - Is there any way you can post some photos of the finished products, or better yet, of some of the vets after receiving their hats? Don't mean to add to your work load, but that would really be a huge dose of holiday spirit for some of us. Christmas where I live is usually just... -

WTB - small fedora or western
Got a baby boy coming in February, would like to get a real hat for when he gets a little bigger. I'm looking for clean hats in small sizes, anything between 6 and 6 3/4. I've got a few leads coming in, but thought I'd put out a feeler. I don't want to buy him one of those "kids" hats, and...- frussell

Peterman Sale
Their catalog makes me nostalgic for the 80s pre-Gap Banana Republic catalogs, when they still actually sold surplus items and all sorts of unusual gear. I've only ordered one thing from Peterman, the Cavalry Twill jacket, and like Woodfluter, I was completely underwhelmed and returned it the...- frussell

The Brotherhood of the Thin Ribbon
I think Mr. Dean is right (as usual) about the renovation. I've had great luck sending hats to Optimo that had basically sound felt, but needed a new sweat or some cleaning. I've also had a few more damaged hats come back with the faults more exaggerated, and one Kitten Finish (sent to Optimo... -
CASH FOR CLUNKERS
You've set the bar pretty high Eric. Great gesture, and especially impressive when you figure how much you could have sold those elsewhere for. Some veterans will have a warm and extra sharp Christmas this year. Happy Holidays. Frank -

Akubra Campdraft
I always order a size big on all Akubras, including Fed IVs and Campdrafts. In my experience, the Campdraft sizing isn't any different than the Fed IV. Get the size you got before that worked for you. I'm sure others have had different experiences. Easier to get one to "snug down" with wear... -
