    Cowboy Boots

    Those are some nice boots. I've been looking at the Lucchese ropers all year particularly the Kennedy roper in black and black cherry. My only reservation is that I am quite tall and when I sit down my trousers ride up and hover just below the tops of the ropers. With a boot shaft of "12 or...

    Cowboy Boots

    I’ve always loved the look of cowboy boots. These are the boots that I own. They are all Lucchese ropers in baby buffalo leather with a 1 inch slanted roper heel (Lucchese call it a 9 heel), an R toe, and a 12 inch shaft, and a stitched toe bug. They bear all the characteristics of a cowboy boot...

    Ask a question, get an answer

    belfastboy, I tried this in the past with a shop that does clothes alterations and they totally botched the black band on a panama hat even though I provided them with the band and all they had to do was stitch it on. People simply do not wear fedora style hats here.

    Ask a question, get an answer

    Can anyone recommend a hat shop in London that can change the thin grosgrain hat bands on my Akubra Cooper Pedy and Akubra Buhman to wider hat bands, say maybe 2 inches wide. I live in the UAE and there aren't any hat shops here that can do this as people generally do not wear fedora style hats...

    Manufacturer/supplier of hat worn by the New Zealand military

    Good day Loungers, Does anyone have any information on who manufacturers the hat worn by the New Zealand military? It looks identical to the Akubra Slouch Hat, but it is worn with the brim flattened without any dip. I really like this style of hat and I would like something similar. If I could...

    WTB Coober Pedy or Banjo in 59 or 60

    I have owned an Akubra Coober Pedy for about 2 years, and it's a great hat. I wear it both causally and occasionally to work with a navy blazer. I steamed and re-bashed the crown and flattened the brim so that it looks a little more formal.

    Where can I find suspender pants without belt loops

    All of the moleskin, corduroy, and tweed trousers from Cordings have side adjusters and brace buttons rather than belt looks and the same goes for their city suits trousers though you can only purchase these as part of their city suits.. However Pakeman Catto Carter sell their suit trousers as...

    RM Williams Stock Agent Boots size 11G with comfort sole - Make me an offer

    Dear Loungers, I have for your consideration a pair of RM Williams Stock Agents boots. They have the comfort soles just like the Comfort Craftsman RM Williams boots. I purchased them brand new without the box on Ebay in what I would best describe as a bidding war, but I have decided to...

    Cowboy Boots

    In my opinion I have always found cowboy boots to be cool. I don't know why, maybe it's from watching too many movies. However, adopting them as my choice of foot wear has been something that I have toyed with for the past 8 years during which time I have owned 2 pairs of Nocona, 2 pairs of...
