    Welcome to the lounge Rhabryn, Welcome to the lounge. You may want to familiarize yourself with the existing Akubra threads and their originators. I believe you'll find that Colby Jack already started a thread like this. Please read the initial post on the thread linked below...

    The people I've met from the Lounge.

    Just promise not to start another Akubra thread! KilroyCD, I'd really enjoy meeting you as well as the rest of the WONKers. Maybe we'll make it happen somewhere in mid-America someday. ;) :) I changed my avatar just for Doran [until Nov 5].

    Highest price paid, lowest price paid for your fedora.

    Outside of custom hats from Art Fawcett, $225.00 for a pristine 7 5/8 Whippet a couple of years ago. (Thanks, Tinman, for helping me keep that number where it is. :) )

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    7 5/8 Dobbs I lost my mind and bid on this Dobbs in the last 3 minutes. And won. The sweatband and liner look good so I'm thinking a clean and block should make a world of difference.

    Loungers' Pets

    Whiskers in a frazzle? Napoleon Bonaparte looks a bit like Winston Churchill. He just needs a stogie and a Homburg. ;) Glad to read that Baggie has a new home on the horizon. Happy November, to Peanut, Henry, Boo Boo Kitty (you are not alone with that name), the Jedi kitty, and...

    The Bowler or Derby Hat

    Gary, The top of the number after "19__" doesn't look [to me] the same as the top of the "2" on "Dec 24 19__". I believe it may read "Dec 24 193_".

    HPG, I haven't seen a style you cannot pull off yet! That homburg looks super. I only hope bolthead looks as good in the Resistol you sent his way. Daoud, Good decision! The Fed looks good on you and you'll be happy with it a lot longer than you would have been with a lesser/cheaper...

    Men's Vogue is all but dead....and more

    I'm certainly going to miss receiving Classic Style. By the same token, I'm sorry to read that Conde Nast will be dropping Men's Vogue to two issues annually. I enjoyed the current issue as I have their run thus far. Let's hope the two issues a year are blockbuster's.

    My "Diplomat" overcoat. I hope it fits right.

    Manny, If the seller posted incorrect measurements, why not let them know and ask for a refund? Most sellers I've dealt with are willing to do this with the return of the merchandise. In some cases, I've accepted a partial refund of my payment so both the seller and I avoid the cost and time...
