Post New Hats Here!
This was a good day. Two hats arrived while I was at work. This one came from the bay. That's why it looks a little wet. ;) The teardrop is the result of my trying to follow JtL's tutorial except that I used water instead of steam. I feel more comfortable that way. -
Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest
I fished this hat from the bay last week. A whippet has been on my wish list for quite a while. This one fits the bill. -

did anyone snag this Borso? I was in on it, but not enough in. http://www.geocities.com/spw1965/pic14110.jpg http://www.geocities.com/spw1965/pic14115.jpg http://www.geocities.com/spw1965/pic14111.jpg -

Well, thanks, gents. :) I bought it pretty reasonably but I've got $100 in it at Optimo so I'm gonna wear it. I like the Homberg on you too, GWD. Your features lend well to a narrow brim, plus we're used to seeing you in them. That one is a great brown color, and the wide ribbon and brim... -

Ditto. It sure looks like a Whippet. -

I'm surprised that you say that. I really almost threw this hat in the trash, but I hated to. So I sent it off. Kim tried it on and it fit her pretty well, so I was going to have it cleaned for her to wear. Of course, Optimo recommended a full refurb, and I really thought the hat needed it... -

I picked this Stetson 25 mode edge up on the bay a few weeks ago. It was listed as a 7 1/4, but when I received it it was way too small and in pretty sad and dirty condition. I shipped it off to Optimo for a complete refurb and resize and got this back. It's the... -
More Praise For The Incredible Michael Moore!!!
There ain't a better guy in the United States than Mike Moore. And you're going to LIKE the hat he sends you. Welcome to the lounge, JP. You're going to like it here. -
Can one form a standard oval to a long oval?
It'll come around. The best way to break in an Akubra is wear it, wear it, wear it. -

I'd suggest you wear the hat for a while first. Give it a good sweat or three and maybe expose it to some rain or a spray bottle. That will help it conform to your head and it will soften the felt a bunch. -
What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?
I got an e-mail today from the e-bay seller. I should have a Whippet in my hands by Wednesday. It won't be green but it will be a Whippet! That one's a beauty, Jim. -

I wet my Akubras to crease them. That softens them very quickly. -

You're gonna love the Campdraft, JnC. I'm finding that tawny Fed to be tempting too. You have a good look going there in your avatar. -

Very sharp, Bart. It's almost time for me to call Tony again. The man makes a fine hat, and he's a heck of a guy to work with and talk with. -

The new Penman looks really nice, NB. Looks like it has a nice wide brim binding. What are the specs on that one and how would you compare it to your VS customs? -

There's a nice looking couple. IC, the Campdraft looks great with the gray and blue, and Dee, your Buckaroo was made for your outfit today. Happy Easter! -
Akubra Overload
Good to see you here, CJ. I thought the other day I hadn't seen you around here for a while. Have you been out or am I just missing your posts? -
Akubra Overload
Yea, it's different than any of the other grays I have too. It's darker and bluer. I have a granite from Art, a moonstone Fed Dlx IV (that you've held in you hands), and a lighter gray Adam and most recently a blue gray Stratoliner. Each is quite a bit different from the others. Soon I'll have... -
Teardrop Workshop
There are a few of us who have actually seen the creasemeister at work. And a couple of us have actual lids that the master has worked his magic on for us. Thanks, Jim. :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap
