    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Thanks for the thoughts on black hats - it's interesting the difference that a few (well quite a few :) ) miles of water make. ----------------------- A business trip to the coast. Stetson 'Swift':

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Thanks Sam. Thanks Andy - we have a much smaller Hasidic population than the US which may make a difference. I don't know what the percentage of black to other colour hats is over here, but I'd be surprised if it wasn't at least 70%. Looking good Perry - muggy and showery here.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Andy - nice looking hat. I don't see many black hats on here - are they less popular in the States than on my side of the pond where black is the norm? Sam - looks good. How much brim did you remove? I like the look of the squatter, but the brim width has always scared me.

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

    If any of you folks sell internationally on ebay please don't use their Global Shipping Program (it's not mandatory and will just put off international bidders) - two hat's I was interested in over the weekend came with pre-paid import duties of over $100 on top of the seller's shipping fee...

    First day of the year it's been warm enough for shorts (don't worry I won't inflict my legs on you! :D ). Biltmore again (finally got round to ironing the brims of the others today):

    Is this an authentic '20s/'30s Fedora?

    UK manufacturers often used thinner sweats - but I've seen similar sweats on UK hats from both the 30's through to the late 50's so it doesn't really help. There's nothing about the hat that rules out 30's manufacture but short of finding out George Chadwick ceased trading in a particular year...

    Is this an authentic '20s/'30s Fedora?

    Very difficult to date - it could be anything from 1930's - 1950's. Is there a union stamp under the sweat band, and is there any sign of the original liner? It's not a hat company I've come across before.
