Which hat for a Noir Movie ?
The Whippet is a '40s era hat, and therefore is a hat like Bogart might have worn, even if he didn't actually wear a Whippet. The modern Stetson has a much lower crown and tapers more - it would likely pass for many casual viewers as a hat Bogart might have worn, it is actually significantly... -

Could it be silk or part silk? I don't know from the photos, just making a guess. -
What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?
Man, this black Stetson was hard to get a good picture of on this overcast day. It is similar to many Akubras, like the Cattleman. I added a horsehair band. It is much more a "sporting" hat than a city hat. -
The Cap Faction
Has anyone in the U.S. ordered a cap from Lawrence & Foster in Yorkshire? They look good. How long did it take? How is the cap? -

I think a bigger diameter would be a little better on me, but I still like it: -
Can anyone ID this hat style?
That was a style of cowboy hat crown in the '80s, although they often had a little more brim. -

Shaving bunnies
The video makes me ask something I've wondered about: why do so many orthodox Jews wear their hats so high on their head? Is that just the fashion among them? I can't believe anyone is shaving bunnies, beavers, or nutria for fur for felt hats. I think rodents have to die to make felt. I have... -

My mother gave me this as a gift after a trip to Britain 25 or 30 years ago. It is a Harrison's, in cashmere. -
Cleaning my hat... a slightly odd question.
Brush it. If there are no visible marks, I wouldn't risk using any cleaning fluid. If you have germ problems, you need help we can't give you here. ;) -

That is a very cool and interesting video. What a good trip. -

Thanks, and no problem. As everyone else can see, it was just my timing, and an odd confluence of circumstances. Thanks for the help, and an order has been placed.
