    Stetson bummer from Miller

    Ah there is the reason. They are a Bricks and Mortars store first and an online retailer second. LL Bean, LandsEnd, Sears, and etal knew that the real key to success in mail order was to guarantee customer satisfaction.

    Stetson bummer from Miller

    :offtopic: Until you just mentioned it I never realized that my nickname could be rendered as Marv El Goose. And I'm not even Hispanic! (but my icon's hat is)

    SEARS SOUTHWEST FLIGHT FEDORA

    Hmm, I thought it was fake, too, but only because the guys were all wearing mascara!

    Stetson bummer from Miller

    Looked at the hats there several times, but missed that policy. Never mind!

    Cheap hat cleaning and sweatbands.

    I maintain a hat store list and since this is new to me I went over and took a look. The pricing is strange. A Stetson Chatham for only $299.99 (!) and you wait 4-6 weeks for delivery. You can find same for $170 tops and in stock at several locations on the web. They had a Stetson...

    Re-bash the Stylemaster?

    It really does look good on you. I like that diamond bash a lot -- can we get a direct overhead shot? Can't wait to play around with my own Stylemaster due in any day now from HatsDirect.

    Hat Stores-a list

    Hey Bartender! I do not have the ability to delete the old postings of the list. I fear that someone entering the thread will have to troll through endless pages of lists that are now out of date. Could you please delete all the lists older than today (10-09-09) I would appreciate it.

    Hat Stores-a list

    The Hat List is updated. You can find it here. We are now up to forty-six locations. A rash of suggestions in early October and they are all welcome. I do have a feeling that I’ll need to start up a separate list for women’s hats as I am finding that there are many more women’s stores than...

    Hat Stores-a list

    List Updated 10-09-09 The criterion is that you must have dress felt hats over the $100 price point, a physical address, and maintain store hours or accept appointment. This did exclude one very famous Hollywood store. The list is sorted by state, then city, and then store name. Please...

    If I had the geocodes for the addresses, I would feel more comfortable about issuing a map.

    Hat Stores-a list

    Does he sell dress fedora's above the $100 range? That's a crucial metric! If, so, happy to put him on the list. You can reply here or PM Thanks for the suggestion!

    Per the Request of Matt Deckard

    Just think, you could order a fantastic deal on a authentic vintage hat from Sears and not worry about anyone sniping the price at the last minute!

    The Prototype "MD1" - Matt Deckard Apparel Fedora!

    I found this thread a week after I ordered two production hats. :( I think it is great that Matt wants to give us a production hat that has so many vintage touches. As we saw in the old Whippet thread, it was impossible to get a hat with what we wanted. So, guess I will be saving pennies...

    20 years is not a sentence its a marriage.

    We're a year short of 20. How did you get a wife that is happy with a $44 coat? Amazing!

    Biltmore Nostalgia

    Yes, I've seen the same hat as you have at that website. Yes, Stetson makes a model with the same name. There is a thread on here where everyone told Matthew from Hatco what they wanted in the Nostalgia and then got hacked because the brim was 1/8" smaller than they wanted. I've...

    Greetings

    More and more it looks to me like a business or cultural historian needs to get access to Hatco records.

    Humour about tragedy.

    To Kurt Vonnegut, laughing and crying are equally valid responses to misery. He preferred laughing because it was not messy and required less cleaning afterwards. To Vonnegut, dark humor was the only logical response to the hurt in the world. The darker the act, the darker the comedy required...

    Hat Stores-a list

    Welcome to Hat Stores - A list. I apologize for having to post the list it again, but after a few weeks vBoard does not allow you to edit a post. Today is September 26, 2009. This update adds Hats Plus LTD of Chicago, a mid price hat retailer with a very deep inventory. I am still looking for...
