    $50 for a late 50's Back-bow fedora, which I turned into a Porkpie. Isnt worth 50, but probably the best hat i have.

    lexol Sweatband Goop!

    Ok, so my new old stetson Royal Deluxe's sweatband was a little dry, so i decided to put some lexol on it.

    Looking for a Fedora that will stay snapped down in the front

    A trick I learned a trick, wet the brim slightly, then put it on a pile of books against a wall, brim down. Leave it like that overnight and it should stay in shape.

    New 'Vintage' Garment: Dry Clean or Tailor First?

    The dry cleaner next to my work dry cleans clothing when he is finished with it. So you might aswell just get it tailored then get it dry cleaned. Its your call though.

    Fedora without a suit advice

    I just bought a 50's chocolate-ish back-bow stetson fedora, which i wear with a pair of jeans, sneakers, and a tucked in sweater shirt. People say it looks pretty sharp, without being dressy. No pics yet.

    Nice score, I love flattop back-bow hats. I scored a back-bow fedora at a vintage expo that came to town yesterday, I love it.
