Hi Blackthorn! I've dropped out for a bit due to work insanity. And then my heart acted up with Congestive Heart Failure and I just beat stage 3 esophageal cancer. All is well now. Have two of my Brent Black Panama hats in Hawai'i getting rebooked by Brent. Made me think of this nice...

Hi RBH... Thank you and your wife for the ad. It's quite nice. Was right down the street in Japantown, but still haven't been there...someday.

Thanks Blackthorn :) Hey, Paul's Hat Works is being featured tonight on KCBS channel 5 in the SF Bay Area on "Eye on the Bay" 7PM Pacific. :eusa_clap :eusa_clap

I'd say the Brown...my first Fed. Thought the Carbon would replace it as my favorite...but I still gravitate to the Brown. So, it is Brown, Carbon, then Moonstone...today ;) You bet Chinaski. My pleasure. Hey Scotty...that story reminded me of something similar. When I was buying my...

Thanks ET. I owe it to Mr. Paladin. I saw him looking so smiley in his Homburgs I thought I'd give one a try. Thinking the same and that someone needs a hug ;)

ET, it is Willow Green. CB, thank you and I am glad I make ya smile :)

Hi MCrider... Ha Ha! I haven't worn that packer much lately. Been wearing Barmah Squashy Roo in foul weather lately. But I used to wear that packer quite often. I would say that my one and only Homburg (Akubra) that I received in March 2009 has become the hat I wear more than all my other...

Hi Chinaski...:) Here I am. To answer Edw8ri's question, my Feds are all bashed the same. Wish I could do center dent or something else, but my noggin is too tall. Here are the dimensions: Front: 4.00" High Side: 4.4" - just shy of 4.5" Rear: 3.5" ...

No one asked, but what the hell. Here's mine. I really like it. Mine is bashed similar to my Feds, so it's like having a bound brimmed Federation ;) When I take this Squatter out of the closet near a crowd, I have to say "excuse me while I whip this out". Then the hat fans go "it's twue...

Thanks Edw8n... Scotty on the Rocks answered the tugboat question. Just for the heck of it, here's dimensions on mine: Front: 4.00" High Side: 4.4" - just shy of 4.5" Rear: 3.5" Varies a bit hat to hat. But that's the dimension on my Fed IV Deluxe Dark Brown that I'm wearing today...

About $63 if you went for the Federation IV Deluxe Here's the pricing I just did. Due to flucuations in exchange rate, your mileage may vary. All prices from their respective web sites including shipping: Adventurer $133 FED IV $133.62 FED IV Deluxe $196.35 I don't have an...

Hi Blackthorn... Cool to hear about Paul's and see more pics. They sent me a invite to their opening gig (I'm nobody special...I signed up for it) and some more mail around Christmas. Unfortunately, my transportation situation of the past few months prevents my visting. Though it may be...

Today was my Barmah Squashy Roo Hickory. Raining Roos and Koalas out here on the left coast. Last week or so, I had to make a decision on what hat to wear to the laundromat since the washer fritzed out. Figured a Homburg was ok given that it was getting close to evening...

While that pic of Billysmom has me thinking otherwise...I'm not as cute as her. I go "no" dents. One (or two) less thing(s) to worry about ;)

Thanks to all for the kind words about the casual look in my felts. For the past year, or so, I've worn nothing but my felts or Panamas. Except once... One day my wife commented/asked why the "change". I'd worn fedoras off and on, but it's been the uniform of the day for me lately...
