    Baron California Hats?

    I've been in there a time or two also, and got the feeling that they really didn't care for me being there. But maybe it was a bad day or something. They are not a gentleman's hat shop but more a we sell hats... some gentleman, some cowboy, some for movies...

    Panama question

    Thanks! As I've never owned a panama, is it? I think it is too nice to be just a straw. The best part is I got it for a dollar more than what it originally cost new and it came with the original box! I really like the airy-ness about it. And it's still a little warm here in LA so I...

    Looney Toons

    I actually put the press kits together last month on the latest one. It also comes with a Tom & Jerry dvd. The cartoon are worth it because they arn't censored at all. It's how it was when it was new! The special features aren't anything to write home about visually, but they do have some...

    how many types of jackets do you own?

    On a side note thread... "The One that Got Away..." or "The One I wish I didn't Sell" Okay, I'll go first. I picked up a WWII A2, un-issued as it was given to the family of a fighter kia as a gift and they kept it . It did have the cuffs replaced as moths ate them, but lining perfect...

    If you had to buy a new car.....

    Our Jetta 03 had a some electrical problems too. Turned out our battery was low. New battery = no probs. They're so touchy that they need just the right amount of juice or you have problems. and call me old school, but leather seats as an option for trucks is just wrong. Trucks are for...

    Vintage watch repair

    I agree, find a Rolex dealer and ask if their service man is rolex certified. Also they may know the current models but not a bubble back or what your watch is. I don't know if your watch is worth sending overseas to fix or not. Sometimes it gets pricey. I had an older IWC and had to send...

    Who said beaver fur is rare?

    I'm not surprised, though I don't think of connecticut as the beaver capital of the US. It goes to reason, that Connecticut being one the original 13 was heavily populated by the europeans for about that long... and everybody loved their beaver hats all over the world so they'd use up all the...

    how many types of jackets do you own?

    I've been buying and selling aero since about 1994 or so. Most are sale jackets. One trick I've learned is if they have a jacket on sale buy 3. Sell 2 and the 3rd is much cheeper for you. I was actually going to rep for them here back in the day before Mark got the ball going.

    Book Recommendation

    I stopped by Barnes and Noble this weekend and was checking out the discount books, and they had a nice hardback called "Gentleman's Guild to Grooming" It's mostly how to be an English Gentleman, but covers every topic, from shaving, how to pick a suit, how ties are made, how shoes are made...
