Originally found it from cross posts from AR15.com, then found it again when researching black and white tie dress.

Every time I would google "fedora", this place would show up. So I joined.

From my friend, John in Covina. We share an interest in fountain pens and fedoras, and one day he scribbled the FL website address on the back of a business card. It took me a while to actually check out the site, but am glad that I did. Thanks, John!

Looking for a fedora for my boyfriend. I stumbled across the list of threads and saw The Powder Room and it was like I was no longer the lone vintage lover in a world of hi-tech gadgets and of-the-moment designers... that there is a whole bunch of us out there, and we're articulate, classy and darn intelligent! Oh, and we dress well, too!!

A few years ago I was attempting to find guidelines on "hat etiquette". An internet search brought me to a thread on FL. John

accidents do happen
I found this site by accident, I was reading the My 50's year blog and she mentioned this site. Everybody has been so friendly and has great advice so I am really glad that I found it.

I bought a Tilley last summer and wore it just about everyday while on a boat or in a kayak. Liked wearing a hat better than a baseball cap. When the weather turned cold, I bought a Dorfman Pacific Indiana Jones fedora...NOT to be Indy, but the price and style was right for me to see if I even liked wearing a proper hat.
While surfing to learn the care & feeding of a felt fedora, I found the FD (and some other places as well), and....in a short time, my modest "collection" is growing.
Less than one hour ago, UPS just delivered my Akubra Banjo Paterson in fawn. Now I know the difference between wool felt and fur felt....I picked the Banjo largely because of what I read and saw here.

Well for me it wasn't the fashion... that came later. I blame yuhz guys for that! Gosh, the things that happen when you run with a fast crowd. lol
I think it must have been either '30s pulp stories, or history stuff, or vintage home decor things. My house will be dressed convincingly vintage long before I ever am.

Be careful what you wish for....
I searched for "sock suspenders".....and look what happened!
Still haven't ordered any, but I've found a new way to burn time in wholesale quantities....:eusa_doh:
It's sort of like a very well dressed group therapy session....in your mind....

lol I like that.. i could imagine it too. Instead of sitting in folder chairs, we sit in vintage couches and chairs. Instead of coffee and donuts its pâté and wine from the Renaissance..
