    By particular smell, you mean that of a wet dog, or shall we say, a wet rabbit?:)

    Movie hats

    I went to see the "Christopher Robin" movie today with my wife, daughter, and grandson. The reviews I read, prior to, were scattered, some good, some meh. I am glad to say it was a wonderful movie. Very gentle, hearkening back to an earlier time. I needed it, after a hectic week. Everyone from...

    Akubra Campdraft

    I saw Belgium, France, and Ukraine mentioned in other articles, but it looks like mainly Ukraine. Or at least it was when most of the articles were written in 2014-2015.

    Indiana Jones hat dimensions

    If you think about it, the hat was actually a character in the movies.

    Hat Room

    As I am new here, I don't know if this has been covered before (most likely it has!), but what do you do with your hat, out in public, when you are not wearing it. I adhere to the old ways, and do not wear my hat indoors. Back in the day, there would be hat rooms, in restaurants and other public...

    Hats on TV

    Understood. But don't give up watching it , because of commercials.

    Hats on TV

    On AMC's "Into the Badlands", it is bowler/derby heaven. And if you aren't watching, you should be.....

    I think wearing a brimmed hat at all, in the modern era, may be influenced by Jones. When I was an adolescent and teen, in the late 1970's and early 1980's, no one I knew would have been caught dead with a hat of any kind. Then the hip hop came, and the baseball caps....

    If an Indiana Jones type person actually existed today, what would he wear? Since this is on the "Hat" forum, we'll stick with hats, but feel free to branch out into the whole ward- robe. Please think about this before answering. It may not be as easy as you think.:)

    Felt Hats and Humid Weather

    Even though I grew up in the South, and lived there off and on as an adult, I have not lived in real humidity since Hawai'i 1996. There is a possibility within the next year or two, we may move to Eastern Carolina. I would like to see some general thoughts and observations on wearing felts in...

    Sunglasses that work well with a Fedora?

    I have prescription Oakley sunglasses I use while driving, but don't really need them for general use, and don't want to beat them up while walking around campus and going to class. I got these on Amazon, and for beaters, they look good with or without a hat, and if you drop or lose them, no big...

    What color was your first Akubra?

    My first three Akubras (and only ones, currently) are two Snowy Rivers and one Territory. All in Santone Fawn.

    Beaver Brand Grand Beaver

    I think I might pick one of these up. Might be my only chance to pick up a Peluche in my size.
