What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?
Quite a gloomy Friday here - rain and snow mix. Just grabbed the ol' standby, a plain black Huckel fedora. Nice 'n easy like. -

USA Members: I Need Your Help.
DeKalb, IL Stopped by a B & K in Dekalb, IL - couldn't get the store number. But Classic Style was in both the tower and on the rack, although hard to see behind other magazines in the rack. So I moved them forward. Best, Robert- DocBob345

Earmuff Etiquette?
The Perfect Fix Living near the Windy City has left me with this same conundrum. Wind biting exposed ears. I wear a hat and thought about earmuffs but don't want to look sissyish as Mr. H put it. My simple soution keeps my ears warm, yet still make me appear manly with a capital 'M'... -

Waiting for Classic Style Magazine
It arrived! At long last my wait is over. Just received my copy yesterday and couldn't be more pleased. MK, excellent job! This first issue was not only as stylish as expected but informative as well. I enjoyed the vendor ads as much as anything else, I think. I look forward to the...- DocBob345

Hat too small
Well, if nothing else Rick, that hat is certainly custom and one of a kind! It's the new oblong chic! Best, Robert -

What would you wear?
Manners It is my opinion that Veronica that Veronica is correct in some of her assertions as to dress codes. I do not believe, however, that hers is the final word on those subjects. I have followed her posts and will certainly consider some for future invitations and manner of dress. I...- DocBob345

Bragging rights
Another great topper Incredible hat, Johnny! I am truly taken aback by that hat - the color and the ribbon are perfect. And I'm looking forward to having the holidays behind me so that I may join you in the Art Fawcett hat membership club. Each new hat from VS just confirms to me that... -

What size brim do you prefer
I have to do the larger brims - 2 1/2" to 3" because of my round ol' noggin. -

Trendy Guys in Trendy Fedoras
I'm right there with you, RedPop. I don't look to these actors for much myself either. Unfortunately, there are others that do. It boggles my mind. I do give them some scrutiny from time to time, just to kind of test the waters, so to speak, and steel myself for their next trend. I always... -

Oops! Did that just come out of my mouth?!
When in a real pickle, I find it wise to simply quote Yosemite Sam. You know, "galoot", "durned", "sahr-sper-illy" and the like. But being a gentleman, I stay away from "rooten-est tooten-est". Call me old-fashioned. Best, Robert- DocBob345

Unusual Bash..
If I'm not mistaken, Dinerman, that bash can also be used to form pita pockets and crepes. Seriously though, I don't think I've ever seen one quite like that. Very curious. Best, Robert -

Color Schemes
Thank you lads! This is exactly the conversation I was hoping for. To not only hear what everyone thought about the colors in general, but what their particular palates were. I appreciate the openness from everyone. I'm mostly a brown-type guy myself. I tend to stay with earth tones... -

Twenty six bucks for a hat....BOX?

Color Schemes
See, this is exactly what I'm talking about. I've always thought that a brown hat goes with just about anything but black. I'm just curious as to some of the combinations that other Loungers go with. Thanks, gents! Best, Robert -

My first Cavanagh
I do really like that stingy. I've wanted to get one, but I'm just too unsure about the look it will have on me. The problem with stingies with me is my affliction - noggin = bowling ball. I've heard that stingies aren't bad on the round cabesas like mine, I'm just still on the fence. I'm... -

Oops! Did that just come out of my mouth?!
If it's used here in America, it's probably filched from another continent. I've used it since hearing it in several older films and books. I just always loved the simplicity of the phrase. You're right, Miss Sis, I hear it very rarely here in the States. BTW, I also love the word...- DocBob345

Color Schemes
I'm certain that Mr. Deckard has addressed this topic at some point in the past but I've been unable to find anything in the "search". I'm wondering if there are any rules of thumb when it comes to matching hat colors to clothing/coats, etc. I usually try to match my hat somewhat closely to... -

The One that got away
Sorry to hear.... Bud, I'm sorry to hear that you lost that one. The story is almost as nice as the hat itself! Best, Robert
