Does owning 2 Borsalino's get you into the brotherhood, or is there a minimum requirement, for elegebility?

Today as most days during summer, I wore one of my Akubra Hayman's, but on Saturday i found a suit that i could wear with my Borsalino, I have been looking for quite a while and finaly got lucky at a retro clothes store near home. The suit is a Stafford Ellinson, (Marcus) in dark grey pure wool...

The Kings Speech, Excellent movie and a very interesting story.

I use foam head manequins tastefully spray painted and old Bobbins from spinning mills to hold my regulary worn hats and those on display rotation , they are used to decorate the front entrance of our home and easily grabbed on the way out of the front door , those not on display are kept in...

In my neck of the woods Hats are back in fashion , it's great to walk down the street and see other men both young and old wearing hats , some could do with some advice re - sizing and style though .:)

Grimakis , just do it , but make sure you look damn good in it !

Sometimes it is good to see famous people wearing hats but unfortunately most of them only seek publicity by whatever seems hip at the time . I am much more heartened by the growing number of average joe's wearing hats, in my neck of the woods hat wearing is booming .

I would renmove my hat more often in resturants etc, but the lack of a safe place to put my hat means i leave it on , even the coat check people these days seem to have no idea of the value of a hat or of the value the wearer places upon it.

Welcome All*Hell. Great guns ,nice tractor ! Next time lets see the hats. Cheers Peter.

Well done, Mario. I was watching that hat but had already reached my purchase limit , its a beautifull hat wear it with pride my friend. Cheers Peter.

The metal polishes mentioned will work fine for polishing, once the item is clean , then to maintain the shine use a good qaulity furniture wax, any wax you use should not be to sticky it should have the consistancy of butter ,forget fancy additives and perfumed waxes, an old fashiond recipe i...

Nice hat Dr greg, cheap at twice the price!

Today i have been wearing a very nice dark grey Huckell Fedora that i bought off Ebay . had to pad out the band a bit but the condition of the hat is far better than i was expecting.

I drive a 2000 model Subaru liberty Heritage that has been modified some what (because i like going very fast on twisty roads), and always wear a fedora whilst driving , i am also building a mildly cutomised 1964 Falcon hardtop for a more sedate ride. However i would love a 1950's Buick coupe...
