    Ok, guys, here's the story. I came upon this beautiful Borsalino and I love the hat. It is in very good shape, but I wear a 7 1/2 and this one is a 7 3/8. I don't know how accurately the pics portray the color, but it is a rich cocoa brown and really very pretty. The sweatband is in very good...

    Resistol 7 5/8 ELO Resale

    Fellas, I won an auction for this nice 7 5/8 extra long oval Resistol. I misjudged the size and it just won't fit me properly. You can see what I spent, and I'm would like this to turn this around. Would anyone like to have it for $55 shipped before I turn it into an experiment...

    Cavanagh 7 1/2 for trade

    I have a nearly mint 7 1/2 Cavanagh for trade, preferably for a Milan or Panama. A 7 1/2 to 7 5/8 would be the ticket for me. I tried hard to capture the color with and without flash. Neither is very successful, but if you're interested at all, I'll take one in the sunlight tomorrow. Let me...

    Take minute and learn of Miki Endo!

    I just recently read of her, and wanted to share her story. She was a 24 year old woman from Japan. She was at work in city hall, when the tsunami bore down on her small coastal town. 30 of her co-workers ran to the top of the building and clung to railings and antennae to escape the water...

    OK, fellas, I'd give a lot of money to have these hats fit me, but they are just wayyyyy too small so I'll offer them here. They are both 7 1/8, the one on the left being an unusual Sage Green Whippet and the other being a beautiful rich Brown Mallory. What you see are just dry bashes I threw...

    Heritage Hats, Phoenix

    Wandered in the other day with my Borsalino needing a cleaning and a Stetson needing a brim trim. Rich, the owner/operator, wrote me up a receipt, promising to have the hat cleaned and ready for pickup within 3 days. He then took me to the back of the shop and talked to me about what I was...

    I would like to find a vintage stratoliner between 7 3/8 and 7 5/8, preferably at the upper end of that scale. I know it is a long shot, but it is always possible someone out there has one they might be willing to part with. If any one is in such a position, please PM me!! scooter

    Hey you lads with size 6 7/8 to perhaps 7 1/4 heads should take a peak at Etsy. I've been cruising there for myself and there seem to be some pretty nice smaller hats for some very good prices. Hope you find something nice!

    Learn Something Every day

    So I'm at work yesterday, having a conversation about my hat fetish. My co-worker is a well-traveled, worldly sophisticate like yours truly (nice way of saying old), and he tells me of his first car, a Volvo 122, which displayed a sizable opening complete with clips in the dashboard. Bewildered...

    I recently acquired this Stetson hat, which I believe to be from the mid 50's. It is an olive drab color with an approximately 5 1/8 inch open crown and an approx 2 3/4 inch bound edge brim.

    WTB Penney's Marathon

    My grandfather religiously wore one, and as a matter of fact, I still have it, but it is way too small for me. I would really like to find one and wondered if anyone had a line on one in 7 1/2, although I could probably make a 7 3/8 work. Thanks in advance for any help. That would be the...
