    FS: White's Boots 9D

    Any interest in these? Both 9D. First pair is the Packer model, second is the smoke jumper with steel toe. Both pairs well taken care of, oiled, etc. Let's say $150 for each.

    Gustin Jeans Selvage Denim made in SF

    These are my super heavy Gustins in the straight cut, which is definitely on the slim side, but it works for me. The fabric has a pretty pronounced reppe weave to it which I'm digging. Very happy with these.

    Some Basic Questions about Watches.

    Nomos makes and decorates all their own movements, which is something you don't usually see in watches unless they cost over $10k. You can get a new one for less than $2k, and a used one for about $1000. And they've got a great vintage look. (They're small and dressy.) Here's the Orion...

    Ralph Lauren Purple Label

    I had this problem with all of my $400 RLPL shirts, but found a great workaround. By wearing the shirt inside out and popping the collar up, the label is now there for all to see. This wasn't my first mod to the shirts- I also realised that the sleeves were preventing people from seeing my...

    FS: 7 ½ Optimo “camel” colored “satin finish” fedora hat.

    I'm pretty sure everything Rundquist wasn't able to sell here was liquidated on ebay.

    FS: 7 ½ Optimo “camel” colored “satin finish” fedora hat.

    I bought a fedora from Rundquist (four years ago) during his great Optimo purge (which happened about four years ago), and I just want to say he was a pleasure to deal with (four years ago), and the sale went very smoothly (four years ago), with the hat being exactly as advertised (four years...

    whats everyones opinion on 100%wool fedora's?

    My first decent hats years ago were wool. They also shrank like crazy, became misshapen in very light rain, and are no longer in my collection. They were also modern hats, so consider your variables.

    George Hurrell 40s style photography

    You may want to check out http://www.largeformatphotography.info/forum/ Doctor Strange, I'd even say as recently as the 90s, pros weren't using 35mm unless it was for photojournalism, nature, etc. There's nothing wrong with 35mm... that you can't fix with medium format!

    Szaszi-hats (Vienna). Wonderful hats!

    I remember this spot being brought up before. The most interesting thing about this place (and perhaps the reason for the prices): "Szaszi hats are made of the finest raw materials. The stumps are delivered by the very best factories only. The felt is made out of shorn hair of rabbits, wild...

    FS: Optimo Fedora, Pearl Blue, 7-5/8

    That is a nice hat. I'd say send it to Optimo and get them to reblock it/trim the brim.

    Great film! Nice bonus to find out the wardrobe was done accurately.

    Formal tall boots?

    I saw those on Leffot. Tons of beautiful shoes, but darn pricey!

    Art Fawcett VS Hall of Fame

    Great hats seabass, and are those cigar shell indys I see down there??

    Formal tall boots?

    Balmoral boots are great. Also, something like this? The only ones I know of though cost an arm and a leg. Though I guess that would mean you'd only need one, which would reduce the cost.

    Optimo south side mobsters

    Yeah, I've seen those. I was just wondering if there were any "in the wild" so to speak. That rootbeer milan does look promising...

    Optimo south side mobsters

    I really like their Milans too. Anyone have pics of their alternate colours? I've only seen the natural and black models.
