    Allen Edmonds! OK, I get it now...

    And these were purchased on eBay, size 17EEE, right?

    Hat protection

    I'm in the same school of thought but I don't wring my hands in worry of a rainy day. If I know it's going to rain, I bring the 'brella. Otherwise, I deal with the rain as best I can. If it's raining, and I'm planning to trek out in it for an extended period, then a 'brella is silly. In fact, a...

    Hat protection

    I'm sure someone will correct me if necessary, but I believe Trooper hats are made with a wool blend. Should that be the case, one would want to protect his hat with some cover to reduce the chance of color running, deformation, shrinkage, etc.

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Antichrist (2009). I enjoyed it. [huh]

    The International Wool Felt Consortium

    I disagree on this. I own a fur felt from Burlington Coat Factory (my first fedora) that's nearly garbage. On the other hand, Stetson currently offers a "Cashmere" line which is fairly high quality wool felt for around $70-80. I believe the Cashmere is far superior to the BCF fur felt...

    Most likely heavy Nylon thread. I've seen this with newer Stetsons, as well. In fact, when I went to reattach a ribbon and liner I used regular thread at first, but backed out and used Nylon instead, just to be consistent with the original material.

    What are you listening to?

    reducing a hat size by 2cm

    Yes, one size down can be cheated with tape. Anything else will look wrong, period. Even one size can look strange until the hat naturally shrinks.

    Show us your Guns!

    I agree to the end that I believe Remington is aware there is/was a problem, and I don't believe they have addressed it thoroughly enough (for one reason or another). Even without taking that report at face value, the fact that ANY rifles may malfunction so easily due to a simple mechanical...

    Show us your Guns!

    I hope everyone sees this; especially people new to guns. This is so important, you can't stress it enough. Even IF the 700 has issues discharging, Mike is right - keep that thing pointed in a safe direction! I think some of the injuries and deaths people have reported could have been prevented...

    'Fantomas' (1913-14) boxed set available

    Haha, yeah, they're a bit on the "progressive" side. They have an album entirely devoted to animated cartoons (and their noises). They also have an album dedicated to famous Hollywood songs. I think their final album was a 74min track concept album which detailed a surgery and descent into...

    "Thirty Things that Need to Stage a Comeback"

    After I noticed you mentioned road trips that reminded me of my little issue with the entry. I believe Americans still make road trips frequently. On the other hand, I think the average working stiff doesn't have the same time-off structure or priorities list as folks had in the past...

    Yeah, doing it yourself is probably cheaper and fun.

    What Happened to Florsheim?

    Those Brogue boots look pretty sharp. The site suggests retail is around 425.00. Too rich for me at the moment, but nice looking nonetheless.

    I'm green with envy! Excellent show; great idea!
