Haven't posted in a while, but this thread has piqued my interest. I think a homburg with dents looks infinitely better that one without, it's a little surprising that more people don't wear theirs that way. Are there any modern production homburgs (I know Akubra makes one, but only in black)...
Man, my question keeps sinking to the bottom. A conspiracy, I say!;) Anyway, could anybody who has a Stetson (Whippet or similar) 7 1/4 Long please give me the interior measurements from front to back and side to side? Thanks!
new strategy!
Okay, new idea. Would anyone who has a Whippet (or similar Stetson) in 7 1/4 Long measure the interior front to back and side to side? That seems like the easiest way for me to figure out if if I can wear a Long Oval or not. Thanks!
After a recent post of mine, I'm still trying to figure this long oval thing out. There's a Whippet on Ebay now that's exactly what I want (and am probably crazy enough to pay a premium for), except for one thing--it's 7 1/4 Long. According to the chart in this post, and after comparing my 7...
I have a Stetson Royal De Luxe in regular 7 1/8 that I'm able to get away with wearing by sitting it on the top/back of my head. I just wasn't sure if a 7 1/8 long oval Stetson might fit a bit better. The ideal of course is 7 1/4, but those pickins' are slim! Just trying to expand my options...
I know this is an extreme long shot, but I'm looking for a Whippet or clone with similar looks in size 7 1/4, preferably brown or grey. I'm not having any luck on Ebay. Can anyone help? Please, please?
Has anybody found any good hat auctions on the Bay recently? Seems to me over the last week or so there's been an alarming lack of drool-worthy listings...[huh]
I'm finding that recently I'm really digging early fedoras-- you know, late 1800's-early 1900's--the ones that look like a hybrid of a Homburg and a fedora (kind of like the one Daniel Day Lewis wears in "The Age of Innocence.") I suppose they began from men just pinching the fronts of their...
I usually switch between an Open Road, an Akubra Stylemaster, and a Royal DeLuxe. Yesterday, I wore a porkpie I hadn't had on in a while and was uncomfortable and uneasy all day.
