    Akubra Overload

    John has been sick as of late, so he is out of commission until he is feeling better. Also, iirc, I think he stopped selling the hat jacks years ago.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    Wearing my new black Campdraft I ordered from Hats Direct. I added an 8mm leather bolo to spruce it up a bit.

    How do folks react to your hat wearing?

    As someone who paid somewhere around that for a Burma Adventurer just to have it fall apart within the year with minimal wear... Well, I wish you good luck. After buying two hats that were within that price range and having them shrink within the year (The Christy's Adventurer and an Indy hat...

    What hat are you waiting for today?

    I ordered a black Campdraft from Hats Direct. This is the first hat I've bought in the last six years, and I look forward to getting it in the next week.

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    How many hats do you have?

    Only four. Three Penman Hats and an Adventurebilt. I wear all of my hats throughout the year except for my gray. I keep that one clean for formal wear.

    Advice about my hat

    What John (bendingoak) said, lol. Ninman: I would go with John's bashing tutorial video for the Raiders bash; however, different block shapes for fedoras will result in a different look. What hat do you have?

    Han Solo's leather jacket in SW7

    The Han Solo jacket, I can see being worn... The Iron Man jacket? Nope.

    which leather jacket for desert climate?

Why Pollack wanted a bulky, oversized costume, I will never know. I have a Crystal Skull Nowak that I bought second hand l, and while I love the...

    Han Solo's leather jacket in SW7

    Perhaps Seb's sarcasm didn't translate too well... I kinda like the jacket, and I found his comment funny.

    Now here's a guy who's happy in his jacket!
