The best hat jack in the world!
Hi gang, I received my hat jack from John Penman last week and this is among the absolute must haves for anyone who wants to keep or restore the perfect fit of his hat. Here's two pictures of a prototype - I'll take pictures of my own, when my wife comes back with the camera... -

This one is for you dad!
I've already shown you some teasers of this hat in the "a couple of hats" thread. However I cannot deny that my pride makes me believe that this hat deserves its own thread. I hope you don't mind. Four, almost five years... this is how long you've been bugging me to PLEASE make a hat for you... -

Where to get? Classic hat boxes
Dear all, I'd like to add some classic (preferable) oval hat boxes to my hats. You know, those where the hat is resting on a ring upside down, so that it's not moving forth and back during shipping. Does anyone know where to get them? Thanks, Marc -

Custom made Magnoli shoes. A review
Hey gang, I got the shoes I ordered from Magnoli for my wedding. And they're awesome. There's ONE tiny thing that could have been better and that is, that I can't pull the laces tight enough to make the shoes close all the way up, due to my high step. Otherwise the craftmanship and the...- Marc

An Indy / non-Indy Fedora hybrid... (pics)
Hey all, one of my customers - a gentleman with several hundred hats :o - asked me to make an open crown hat for him, with the flying-V and everything else that makes a hat an Indy Fedora, except for the dim. cut on the brim. Open crown, as he likes to put in a personal crease - non Indy. So... -

Felt debate

Finally got to see The Maltese Falcon...

Books about vintage hats
Greetings! I know a couple of you have books about vintage hats and how they're made etc. Would you recommend some of them, please? I'd like to learn a little more on the subject than the 'needle test'. Also, do they still produce these books (would be easier for me to get them here in... -

My favourite eau de cologne
I always thought that most of the current offerings of eau de cologne and after shave smell far to sweet and / or "soapy" and have therefore over years used the German brand "Tabak original" that has been produced for at least 50 years. But now I made a discovery and even got it as a gift...- Marc
