    For Sale or Exchange: Excellent Knox Charcoal Fedora 7 3/8" Long Oval

    Hello, everyone. I should still like to sell this hat to a fellow Lounger. I realize one probably wouldn't wear it until Fall, but it is a good time to prepare! New price: $150 shipped (extra for Canada or overseas, please). Please P.M. if interested.

    For Sale or Exchange: Excellent Knox Charcoal Fedora 7 3/8" Long Oval

    Hello, gentlemen! I am a frequent follower, but sadly seldom a poster on F.L. I recently acquired this hat, but I have found the long oval not quite to suit me. The hat is in excellent, almost mint condition; the box is in very good condition, but with one tear, as shown below. Brim: 2"...

    FS on eBay - Two fedoras, tan DYNAFELT and brown CHAMP, both 7 1/4

    Both of these hats, listed on eBay, are a capacious 7 1/4 size. There is a little wear on the rear of the chocolate-colored Champ, but they are otherwise in very good condition. The Dynafelt appears unused.

    FS - Stetson NOSTALGIA, Size 7 1/8, Very good condition

    I have listed a Stetson 'Nostalgia' on eBay, $39. It's in very good shape, and, as a discontinued hat, I hope you will find it interesting. Also, it was sold as a 7 1/4", and that is what the box shows, but my own measurements put it closer to a 57 cm.

    Ask a question, get an answer

    Shellacking I am sure this question has been asked already, but I am afraid that twenty minutes' searching has not turned up the thread with the answer. How does one re-shellac his hat? Is it possible to do that simply with clear spray shellac meant for varnishing wood? Or is there some...

    For Trade -- 7 1/8" Stetson Sovereign-Quality Nostalgia, Mint

    Although I would of course love to trade a mint-condition Nostalgia for another mint condition, I would be willing to accept a reasonably used one!

    For Trade -- 7 1/8" Stetson Sovereign-Quality Nostalgia, Mint

    Recently I acquired a 7 1/8" Stetson Nostalgia, which they discontinued in March. I bought it immediately after I learned of its discontinuation, and therefore had little choice in what I was getting. I had been hoping for a thicker ribbon, which was on the older models, but the one I got has...

    Lewis and thomas Saltz Fedora for sale!! Size 7 1/8

    Not at all. I thought the brim was a little too short, anyhow. Enjoy the hat!

    Lewis and thomas Saltz Fedora for sale!! Size 7 1/8

    All right, unless I missed your starting offer, I would give $60 for it. If you don't mind, too, what would be the brim and crown sizes in inches, please?

    Lewis and thomas Saltz Fedora for sale!! Size 7 1/8

    Would you be open to a trade, or are you just selling? I have a used light-gray Stetson fedora if you're interested. I can post or send you pics. Let me know.

    Pullovers / Sweater Vests

    Would you be able to give more specific measurements, preferably in inches, on the dimensions of the sweaters?

    Stetson Nostalgia Discontinued?

    As I have been considering buying the Stetson Nostalgia from TheFedoraStore.com for some time now, I have been checking the site almost every day. It seems that, as of very recently, the open-crown Stetson Nostalgia is no longer listed. Does any body know whether it were discontinued? Or whether...

    Sad Sight: A Sagging Homburg

    Indeed, the homburg did begin as a relatively casual hat. But, of course, it's a platitude that every generation's idea of 'formal' tends to the last generation's casual: there is much overlap betwix 'old fashion' and 'formal'. Of course, one interesting tid-bit about the homburg is that it's...

    Sad Sight: A Sagging Homburg

    Then I really don't know what to say. It's a homburg, and it's very stiff, and it's black. Additionally, as they came about before fedoras, homburgs are generally associated with the darker clothing of the Nineteenth century, and due to their weight they are somewhat more of a Winter hat. Not...

    Sad Sight: A Sagging Homburg

    To wear a homburg properly, one must begin of course with a proper homburg. A proper homburg, naturally, should be as stiff as a Puritan's moral code and equally dark, if not to say 'clean'. It is a tragic sight, then, when a homburg once proud and rigid, becomes lightly stained and begins...

    That Boxy Look

    Thank you for all the information. And I should say, too, that Mr. Wolfwood's hat as he wears it in his picture appears to me the apotheosis of fedora style. As far as hat blocks, go, though, is that some thing that most of you possess? How necessary are they for fedoras, and are they any more...

    That Boxy Look

    Another member mentioned that the Nostalgia, at least during its production a decade ago, had rather thin, stretched felt at the top which was given easily to shrink (this from the thread specifically about the Nostalgia). To be clear, then, bashing does not involve any steaming which may...

    That Boxy Look

    Sorry, by 'new' I simply mean 'new to me'. I'm not looking particularly for newly manufactured or vintage hats.

    That Boxy Look

    Do you happen to have any pictures of this hat shaped, esp. a picture from the front, or which might give me a better idea of the height of the crown?
