    A Safari Jacket Potpourri.....lots of pics

    Kilroy or MikeK, I have a question. Mike, What size do you wear in a sportcoat? I'm 5'10" and wear a 50 regular so I need to decide whether to order a 50R, 50L, 52R, or 52L. There's always a chance that it will end up in the dryer. :eusa_doh:

    The Elephant in the Room - Man Purse

    Ah,Paddy, you bring a tear to my eye. You are a man among men. A master of the verbal riposte. A sartorial luddite. You make me proud. I raise my glass in awe!

    The 'Douglas' contest

    A nice touch but not, as shown by the Douglas, a requirement. However, sartorial balance ala the Douglas is important.

    Thanks, gentlemen. I've been looking for a good boater and $46.00 for this one wasn't bad. I'm thinking a bit later in the year with seersucker. If only there were a regatta in Dallas. sigh ;) :)

    Post New Hats Here!

    UWS Cowboy, Can you post a photo of the crown of that Stetson Twenty Five? I'd like to see your bash. Nice hat. Nicholas, Your Mallory is definitely a fur felt. That's a very nice look. The crease looks fine to me and the wide ribbon is superb. Mallory's are wonderful vintage hats. Well done...

    self-concious in my fedora

    I grew up wearing straw caps on the farm in the summer, sports caps in school, a wide brim flat crown western in college, and various types of headgear in the military. It seems that more than half my life has been lived in some sort of head cover. For me a fedora or a newsboy or any other hat...

    'tophat' turned fedora

    Everyone is entitled to their viewpoint. I'm sure there were men in the 30's who would not have worn this hat as well. Let's not forget that law-abiding people as well as the lawless wore fashionable fedoras in the 30's and other decades. No style was ever co-opted by the seamier side of...

    Do you doff yours?

    Good Bump! I took my hat off and held it in my lap while at a film with my daughter this past weekend. As we were leaving, I put my hat on. When we walked out the door a nice looking lady was looking at me. I felt pretty cool until her husband walked out the door with his hat on. Perhaps she...
