    Peacoat Button Help

    Ah, I got it upon reading your post. It must have been the Bier. I'm swimming in my coat now and this will help. It may look a bit odd having the buttons further apart, but hey, I'm not in uniform.

    Cowboy Boots

    I have narrow heels and a wide toe area. Lucchese boots are the only stock boots I can wear. They fit me almost as well as a pair of custom Tony Llama boots I have.

    Peacoat Button Help

    Thanks, Jan. It is the real deal, but my needing to move the buttons to make it smaller will put some of the buttons right in the pocket making them almost unusable.

    Peacoat Button Help

    It has been a long time since I have visited the Lounge. Life has been a whirlwind. I have a bit of a problem and I knew that someone here would know the answer. I have a peacoat that needs to have the buttons moved. (I am not as 'girthy'.) How does one sew buttons without going through the...

    Kilts

    I'll throw another vote for Kathy. She makes wonderful kilts. Clan Donald here so Campbell :eek: is something I will not wear. I know that kilts as we know them are a recent invention, but I still like to wear mine. I also wear the belted plaid at times. But, not in Mobile. It's far too...

    What Happens to Old Towns?

    Since you are in Arkansas you might want to look at my hometown, Searcy. It is the county seat of White county. It is growing, but still has a great deal of small town to it. They are trying to keep it that way. It has a great courthouse, too.

    To Tilt or Not to Tilt...That is the Question!

    My hats tend to tilt in the direction of the hand that puts them on my head. I'm ambidextrous and depending upon what I'm doing when I walk out the door that's the hand that does the job. I really never thought about it until one day my daughter made the comment, 'Daddy, your hat is on too...

    The Dumbest Comment I Ever Heard

    I ran into the fellow this morning who made 'batteries' comment at the coffee shop. I was wearing my old brown Stetson fedora. He said, 'Hey man, that's a different hat.' We struck up a conversation and I asked him about the battery comment. He told me he was thinking of Inspector Gadget...

    The Dumbest Comment I Ever Heard

    I have an Orvis that has that profile. I'm not sure if it is still available or not. It is moleskin.

    Hats - tilt to left or right?

    Perhaps one reason for the preponderance of hat tilt being to the right is that most people put on a hat with their right hand.

    Repro'd B-29/B-36 Crew Cap

    Fantastic job, Dean. I love those crew caps. I will inherit two of them at some point. A point which I'm not looking forward to either.

    Great picture. Since that hunk of steel is just sitting there taking up space, I'd be glad to come and take it off your hands.
