    Thinking About Soaking My Hat

    Honestly, I can't tell you very much about this - but I can tell you that before saoking it, you should remove the liner and ribbon. Just to be safe.

    How did you start wearing hats?

    It does get annoying. Don't let it discourage you from wearing your hats though. I've learned, over the years, to identify it as a type of compliment and treat it as such. I got my first hat when I was five years old. It was a cheap wool felt crushable...and I'm sure I looked like a dork in...

    Martin Scorsese in summer clothing (pic)...

    One of my Italian relatives used to date Martin Scorsese. Not sure what happened to that relationship. It was maybe in the early 90's or late 80's...

    Could be a gem, or a dud...

    Looks kind of Dorfman-esque

    The Akubra Squatter

    Hey Douglas, When you first received the hat, did it have any taper? Thanks for the input, guys. I really am liking this hat. I think maybe I'll just buckle down and deal wirth the 3 inch brim...after wearing a 3 in. crushable outbackm I might not look that bad in it. -J

    U. S. Wings sale

    I'm actually getting a bit PO'd about this thread. For a number of years I have wanted an Indy jacket. Now, they are selling for $80... And I just blew my money on some vintage sunglasses. :rage: :rage: :rage: :eusa_doh: :eusa_doh: :eusa_doh:

    What Is The Strangest Thing You've Ever Seen?

    Seems like we could make a decent sitcom out of that.

    The Akubra Squatter

    Well, I've been prying into this hat for a while after seeing the "Travelling Hat" threads, and I think this particular lid has alot of potential. From what I can gather, it's got a wide snap brim, and a tall, untapered crown. A good choice for the 1930's stereotype hat, methinks. Anyone...

    Akubra Sydney

    Nice hat. Too much taper for me (as established earlier;) ) but regardless I really like that hat. The side profile looks awesome. I think I may have a liking to the Squatter, myself. That seems like my kind of hat.

    November Touch (2004)

    Whoa. I watched the trailer and the first few minutes of the film. I plan on watching the rest when I have time. That is some very professional work. Cineamtography is great. Acting is good (except for the guy with the glasses, he is just okay lol). What I REALLY liked was the...

    Find me a panama

    Feraud, which hat is that...and how much did it cost? That's pretty much the hat I was thinking of when I decided to go for a panama job.

    Find me a panama

    Alright, I'm not usually someone that changes their clothing becuase of temperature. Every summer for the past ten years I have worn some sort of heavy felt hat and enjoyed every moment of it. HOWEVER, as my hat collection is increasing, I'm finding that I need some sort of panama hat. And...

    Hat Stretching Question?

    Take it to VHS. I had my 6 3/4 Stet stretched up to a 7 1/8 by them. The sweatband rippled a little bit on the sides, but otherwise there was nothing. They used a heated expanding block (very professionally, might I add).

    Hat Cleaning Hint from the barn...

    Perhaps masking tape would be a better route.

    Drowned my Akubra

    Good job. Looks quite nice with the center dent. The taper on those crowns still makes me shudder though lol

    Modding a Cowboy Hat, Tales of a Mad Hatter.

    Seems like an interesting project! Good luck! Looking forward to what kind of bash you'll put in it.

    Drowned my Akubra

    Another thing you might want to consider, if you find your Akubra to be 'scratchy' - I sanded the felt on my Federation with fine grit sandpaper. I originally had heard of this being done on COW; I tried it myself and am quite pleased with the results. The fuzz kind of just accumulated and...

    Is the IJ haircut period-accurate?

    You'd better watch it! Haha!
