Regal...RegalJust snagged my first Bowler. I never thought I'd buy one, but here we are...
Also picked up my first Cavanagh. It's also my 3rd Homburg, which is something I never thought I'd do either. The brim is wide enough if I don't like it as a Hommie it might just become my first Cav fedora.... we'll see.
Alden 403 Moc Toe Boot - Brown Chromexcel - $680 The classic "Indy" style Alden Boot in the classic Horween brown Chromexcel. 
Grant Stone Diesel Boot Dark Olive Chromexcel - #395 Goodyear welted, Horween Chromexcel, classic good looks. 
Himel Bros. - The Ross Mk. 1 Leather Jacket Classic D-pocket motorcycle/aviator style jacket. That Hommie is super...been looking for one like that for Daniel in a 7 1/2 LO for years...Just snagged my first Bowler. I never thought I'd buy one, but here we are...

Yeah I am sure you are right...but you know some here have purchased from him and got a deal. Few years ago I just finished buying a clean Stratoliner that looked never worn for $260.00 shipped...he had one with moth bites and obvious wear on the sweatband for $600.00 I actually refered him to the listing I just purchased to see what he would say and got no reply. I have no idea where he gets his hats to list, but I tend to just avoid him, too much what he wants as you say, even if he lowered his prices.
What a great score! That Homberg is really nice, I like the wider brim hombergs. That one is a nice color too.Just snagged my first Bowler. I never thought I'd buy one, but here we are...

Looks to me like someone went crazy with markers. The pic of the inside tags shows the real color of the felt.
Thank you very much! Is there any clue on the date of this hat? All I know is it looks old, hahaha.Congrats on that Derby!! Heres a little snippet for that Stetson crest logo
1900s- earlier 1910s more than likely. when it arrives, carefully look behind the sweatband and see if there are any other clues, such as a LOT number, etc
Egad. Destruction of vintage stratoliners is punishable by firing squad, isn't it?
I think firing squad is too humane.
I have one and probably wear it more than any other hat. I like them too.Resistol 4X Cattleman in Silverbelly arrived today. I think I’ll keep this one original (for now). I must have a dozen of these and I can’t say no when the shipping costs more than the hat. I don’t get to play the vintage fedora game too often due to my size, but these westerns are inexpensive, plentiful, and sturdy.
