    Alternatives to a fedora

    A question of size.

    I'm in that same size range and have the same variance as you. Other clothing varies depending on the manufacturer I've learned over the years. The way pants and shirts are cut are not universal when sizing is applied either. One company's large is another's ex-large etc. and so on.[huh]

    In every average neighborhood people are razing houses and erecting huge-assed 2 story eyesores beside 50s bungalows and ranch houses and they look totally out of place.

    Screen Names...

    Oh my. Long ago in a different time, in a different world I was a recon Marine. Every guy in the squad was assigned a nickname relavent to his idiosyncracies or looks.
