Ideological and Historical Roots of anti-Suit Hatred
Hi Doran! I'll say first of all to everybody on this thread; to take full advantage of the reason(s) that most men aren't wearing suits, and buy all you can before the trend swings back around! That goes for overcoats, shoes and the like. I've never experienced the suit = Homosexual thing. The... -

Is the suit relevant in your life?
It's sure nice to be able to decide what you want to wear I did'nt always have the luxury of choosing to wear a suit or sportcoat. I hated to have to go into my closet and try to find something presentable and clean! to wear to an event or some gathering that I was invited to. I finally... -
self-concious in my fedora
Fight the good fight Aldocello, If you're 50 something and look it (distinguished) then while wearing your fed you're already going to look like you know what you're doing. I'm sure you know that you can't hardly go anywhere nowadays, without somebody having something to say. Used to be... -

Paul's Hat Works
Twas' the year of presumption It seems to me, that if YOU read a bit more of this site; you would know that most of the the HAT buying public is right here, or maybe it just looks that way. I'd be interested to know how many loungers have bought a titfer for more than...say one thousand... -
Paul's Hat Works
I see that you're from Oakland, are you affiliated with "The Hat Guys" ? Because if you are then that would help explain some your remarks. I can empathize with you about your Biltmore, that is kinda messed up. He WAS working on hats the three times I've been by there. Buy, don't buy[huh]... -

Hats at the Restaurant
No hooks for hats generally = no hooks for coats, I read somewhere that this was part of the reason that men's hats became a "bygone" Not having to worry about your "stuff" when, or wherever you went someplace, carefree, and some other words were used in the text. I can relate to the... -
Movies with brim snapping and crown bashing and denting?
I'll have to sleep on that There are a couple right on tip of my tongue, so to speak, but I can't recall at the moment. Hatflick is right though; Jake gittes for sure. D.C. Barton in the beginning of Alfred Hitchcock's "Number 17" which is my favorite "hat movie" Fairbanks in the Men's... -

Hats at the Restaurant
I'll come to one of yours, if you come to one of ours.. I'll meet you where you're at if you'll do like wise:) and I'll be glad to try out the hat hooks. And we have plenty good room in our Church for hats, and saints alike. Haven't been to Schroeder's in years, knockwurst is a favorite... -

Hats at the Restaurant
It's kinda weird to be attending Church in Frisco on a Saturday in the first place[huh] If you took a poll, and asked my fellow San Franciscans fifty things to do in the city on a Saturday, attending services would probably be 250th on the list. :offtopic: There is a small but influential... -
Akubra Overload
My Church has a annual retreat to Yosemite, and the Campdraft may be the very hat to accompany me on such. Jenny almost talked me into buying one of them when I placed my Fed IV order. NOW HERE YOU GO! -

Sorry Viper, I couldn't remember who mentioned the fast delivery:o I placed my order on 18 NOV, and had them in front of the tea kettle spout on the morning of the 26 NOV!!!! Pacific rim accessibility in action. -

WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL MY LIFE? Thanks to Indycop, Deelovely and Jpbales, I decided to gamble and buy two fedIVs in the carbon grey, and moonstone. Because I'm old fashioned I telephoned Hats direct with my order, I've called Australia before and had difficulties getting through, not this... -
Paul's Hat Works
Maybe one day... The felt, hat bands, wind trollies etc. that Mike uses are all 1940 vintage "new old stock" I don't know what that means in it self or is worth. I wish he would reconsider cleaning and reblocking hats again, I've even offered to work for him for free! just to learn, so I...
