Nice looking newsboy! I have a "newsboy" or golf hat (?) with the more modern shape, and a newsboy with the more substantial top, like the one above I prefer the older look like above!

Makes sense about the wind. Could also be the military wanted a certain look/design. Whatever the reason was, they both look good to me.

Yeah more or less. Those are a stiffer style. They are nice as well, but I would like to see the lighter bill on the same kind I got. Thanks

They are really nice crusher caps. The bill seems a bit shorter than the military ones, but that's fine. They have, for me, sort of that captain from the 1930's steamship vibe.

As far as Kong Island, for the safety of all, I plead the fifth!!!

Thank you! Yeah I am going to message them about the liner/hatband sewing. Also, it would be nice to have a fabric/tan version with a light brown bill. But the hats really are good quality.

Well I ordered two of the Sterkowski crush caps: a fabric one for spring/summer and a wool one for fall/winter. They are very well made! I ordered on the generous size, since I'd rather a hat be a little loose instead of even a little tight. My only wish is that the lining was not sewn to the...

Good points. I will pass. Great information! I will certainly look those up! I'd rather spend a good deal more and have something that will last, and stand up to actual wear. Thanks!

Good points. I bought a real leather jacket years ago that I really liked: some guy on the street "desperate" for money and sold it for $100. It was brand new, with tags... it fit well and was indeed real leather. It wasn't really a "bad" purchase, as it lasted me about three years, but then...

Howdy. I have been looking for a leather jacket in the style of the German U-Boat captains or similar. Prefer brown, but black is cool as well. I have seen some one ebay and etsy, and the prices are very good. Choice of real or fake leather. I would get real. Reviews are good. Anyone dealt with...

LOL! Do you have a better picture of it? Where you got it? Seems like a typical "naval captain's cap", which would also be good to have.

Thanks! I'll check it out.

I like those too. Thanks. But I want one with a leather visor and more like the captain in King Kong or like Jake's in Tales of the Gold Monkey. I ordered the Elvis one, in khaki, as it looks pretty much the same as the captain one. I will likely get the olive/brown one from US Wings for...
