    Hat Storage

    This is indeed a situation that might easily qualify for a prenuptial codicil. I am blessed with a wife who is both understanding and organized. I have my hats—most of them—in the boxes you see on the photos. Most of the boxes I believe are from the Container Store or BB&Beyond and have visible...

Savannah is a beautiful city and welcomes you and other hat lovers. Come with your VS and/or Optimo straws.....suitable at least ten months of the year...the other...

    OPTIMO FINE HATS: A Photographic Excursion

    Could not agree more with all posts. Optimo produces magnificent hats. What makes it so very special is Tiffani's most friendly and engaging customer service. We did a Skype fitting and the result is the Montecristi below. The hat is looking longingly to go outdoors but in Savannah we are in...

    Where do you get Good mid price range hat?

    Agree. Bought a great beaver felt grey fedora from FineVintageFedoras. Bond was a pleasure to work with, fair priced, and reliable in shipping. Good hunting.

    How To Pull Off A Fedora/Trilby Dress Hat

    Thank you. Am pleased you appreciated it. Another true one: "All I know about suspense and fear I owe to the Jesuits." Alfred Hitchcock They also wore some good hats--birettas--back in the day.

    How To Pull Off A Fedora/Trilby Dress Hat

    Well said. Nearly all of the best teachers I had were Jesuits. They encouraged thought, settled for nothing less than your best, and educated with a wonderful combination of pressure and encouragement. One of my favorite stories, although I do not have the specifics of time and place is of the...
