    Anyone here have "small" feet?.....

    .....if so, I have a pair of Nunn Bush shoes size 7C that are in near perfect condition. I bought these shoes off of ebay about a year ago thinking they were a size 8 1/2.....but they turned out to be 7C. I thought they were pretty cool so I was really disappointed when they arrived and didn't...

    (SOLD)Forced to give up this VS

    As much as I hate to do it, I am offering up this beautiful Art Fawcett creation, "The Hoosier" for sale. You may as well call this hat brand new because it has never been worn except to try it on when it arrived. It's a beautiful hat, basically a size 7 1/4....I measured the inner circumference...

    Thanks to Boston folks!!

    Just a moment to say "Thanks" to all those who posted suggestions on my earlier inquiry on places to visit while in Boston for the Marathon....y'all were a huge help. The weather was lousy the entire time we were there (the Sun FINALLY came out about 30 minutes before our departure...

    All you Bostonians...need your help!

    Okay guys, how 'bout helping a Southern boy out? I'll be up in y'alls neck-a-the-woods for the Marathon in two weeks.....how about some suggestions on THE places I must check out while I'm up there? I'm taking two teams, so I'll be hanging out with about 10 other people. We already have tickets...

    Breaking out the Straws

    As noted in a few other threads recently, it is getting to be that time of year when the weather dictates bringing out the straw hats. I hated putting some of my felts up for the Summer, but at the same time I am having a good time "rediscovering" some old friends I haven't seen during the...

    Fondling hats

    This past weekend as I was going thru, sorting, trying to decide which of my felts would be boxed up for the Summer and replaced by Straws......I found myself fondling my felt hats.....sad to see them being stored away for the long Summer season. Am I alone in this madness, is there a support...

    A Proud Moment!

    A young lady whom I coach was recently named the Oklahoma "Runner of the Year". I must admit she is a coach's "dream".....does everything I ask of her. The hardest part is trying to keep her "reigned in" and doing too much. In fact I'm really excited about our entire Women's team which will be...

    Favorite Crown Shape

    I'm sure this has been asked before in some form or another, thought I would post it as a poll to find out what the majority here prefer...What is your favorite crown bash or shape? ....and as a followup, what proportion of your hat collection does your favorite shape fill? I would say the...

    One of those fun "Hat Moments" (compliments of/to Art)

    I was in the Phoenix area last week for the Marathon. Afterwards I was kicking around in Scottsdale just doing a little "sightseeing".....when I came upon a nice looking hat shop....."American Sky Hats".....naturally I had to check it out.:) As I entered, the gentleman I assumed was the...

    Show us your hats (The lighter side)

    Okay, we have a great thread started where we can post pictures of our fedoras, derbys, homburgs, etc...... But fess up guys, how many here have one or two "silly" or novelty hats!? There must be at least a few who have something stahed away.....only to be worn at the BIG football game or...

    With Apologies to "Bogie"....

    While I may not be able to pull off the "Bogart Aura" ......I think this Hat certainly does!:D I just received my first VS custom made from Art Fawcett, and couldn't be more pleased. Very soft felt, the color is "Granite" and the ribbon is "Midnight Blue". It has the diamond crown and a 2 &...

    An Adam for Adams.

    With my last name being Adams, it only made sense for me to track down a hat by the name of "Adam".....only for some reason it was somewhat hard for me to find one. I guess they weren't as popular as Dobbs and some of the others?[huh] Anyhoo, here's what I finally found in my size. A "Deluxe...

    A "Stingy" day.

    When I first started buying/collecting fedoras I stuck pretty much exclusively with the stingy brims. This Dobbs was one of my first "vintage" purchases...

    New "Custom"

    ......well that's what it says on the sweatband!:D I just got this one in......just couldn't resist it.....I liked the "look" and the price was right. It's called a "Masterbuilt"....on the sweat it says "custom made", "soilproof", & "Deluxe Quality". Castanza would describe the liner as having...

    2 More Keepers...

    ......or perhaps I should have titled this thread "Hey RBH, this one's for you!"lol I just received another Champ, and Open Road style Featherweight. I've been on the lookout for one of these for awhile (inspired by Douglas!) and finally snagged one. Of course it is VERY similar to a...

    What's on your list??

    Do you keep a "list" of your hat inventory? If you do, are there any particular brands of hats that you find yourself on the lookout for? At this point, I find myself looking more for a different "style than a particular brand, BUT there are a couple that I would like to add to my collection. So...

    What a week!

    ....okay, I'm almost embarrassed to admit....but I had a couple MORE hats arrive today (from a recent flurry of activity on that auction site:) ).....I have mentioned before my weakness for "Champ" hats.....so I couldn't resist this one. I was also able to "steal" a good looking Dobbs 20...

    My first Mallory...

    This hat will probably never make my "top 10" list, but I couldn't pass on it......picking up my first Mallory for under 20 bucks.:D It is a nice enough hat....soft, seemingly well made....
