    Opinions on course of action.

    BK, That's an interesting jacket. If you were to keep and wear the jacket, I'd say make the repairs. Since you intend to resell the garment, I'd leave it as is and let the buyer deal with it post-purchase. However, you could offer to make the repairs, at the buyer's request, for a...

    Too Small?? Too big? Just right? or How to wear a hat!

    Man Up Your hat should sit on your head where, in your opinion, it is most comfortable and looks the best. Unless this results in problems with hearing, vision, breathing, or eating and drinking, it should be fine.

    The world's finest felt hat !!!

    That's a very good question. After perusing the bencrafthats website, I'm also curious regarding the lack of a niche for a Cervo (or other) hat brand between Borsalino and Stetson. I may be wrong but it appears to me that there is a $50-60 gap between their most expensive Stetson dress hat...

    Stetson 100 Mint w/Tan Presentation Case

    Now this is interesting! Just to expand the parameters of this discussion a bit. I have a 5X Clear Beaver that is in wonderful condition and, while supple, is not as supple as some other Stetsons in my collection. Can we get a comparison of the 5X CB, the 7X CB, and the Stetson 100? (I won't...

    The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD

    Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the theatre? $46.00 on Ebay day before yesterday. I decided to post it here since the ebay thread is too busy with "me, Me, ME" posts for acknowledgement much less discussion.

    A few images from English tailoring catologues

    What a Gift! :) I especially appreciate these two images. These are especially helpful when one has only a single piece from a vintage suit. I have a number of vintage or vintage-inspired jackets without the pants. Images like these help the sartorially-challenged (me) put an ensemble...

    A tale of two Hats/Cities

    Well Done Funneman, Great Hat and it's great to see an on-Lounge trade work out so well. Now we need to see a picture of the stingy-brim you traded. ;) :)

    Does My Vintage Royal Stetson Have a Two Tone Brim?

    I'd say that Art's explanation is spot on. A hat stored inverted in a box with no lid, for any appreciable length of time, would certainly exhibit these characteristics. The fact that you removed a lot of the color on the underbrim with an orange sponge and a brush supports this explanation.

    Stetson 100 Mint w/Tan Presentation Case

    Dman, This has come up in at least one other discussion. Is it your belief/understanding that a Stetson 100 was 100% beaver felt regardless of whether it was designated as "Clear Beaver" on the sweatband and crown?
