I'm moving and really have to pare down my hat collection (again), so I'm selling seven hats, all with $9.99 starting bids and no reserves. If I do say so myself, some of these are pretty special hats! Thanks for your interest!
Stratoliner (size 7): http://ebay.us/X6vr0B?cmpnId=5338273189...
I'm finding I'm now wearing vintage as much as I used to, so have decided to pare down my collection via a series of no-reserve auctions on eBay. Today, I'm listing a number of coats. Photos below, with links to the auctions below that. Thanks for your interest and good luck to bidders...

If a Lounge member uses the above link to buy this beautiful hat, I understand eBay won't charge me its seller fee, which would save me 10%. I'll rebate that via a PayPal refund to any buyer who uses the link.
I have two identical Ralph Lauren RRL shirts for sale. They are new, but without tags and are of a vintage workwear style. As is common with RRL clothes, they are washed to give them a worn look.
Unusual design details:
The fabric is a soft, very heavy flannel, but with essentially no fuzz...
I don't know the market for A-2s, but the buy-it-now (at $120, plus shipping) on this one seems reasonable:

This tweed suit appears to my eye to be from the 1950s or early 1960s. At any rate, I think it's nicely styled and the seller says it's heavy tweed. It looks like it was MTM or bespoke in Japan. Does anyone have any comments on the quality of Japanese tailoring? Can't beat the starting price...
Here's a suit that looks like it might be made of a wool/mohair blend called granite cloth (credit Marc Chevalier for making me aware of the name of this fabric in a suit I have).
It's a nice looking suit, but it's too big for me...
While I was out on a long walk with my dog this morning, I realized that I was wearing the hat I wear most often: an old Burton Taylor hat in the style of an early Stratoliner.
That made me start thinking about why I wear this particular hat so often. After all, I have about 30 hats--all of...

I'd like to buy (or possibly trade) a vintage (genuine) Milan hat in a biggish 7 or 7-1/8. I'm open-minded about color, but I'd like it to have a brim of at least 2-1/4". Please PM if you have something.
I bought this hat in the fall, but have since decided I prefer a taller, less tapered crown. It is a Stetson Benchley, mink in color and 100% beaver felt. It is in new condition---free of stains, odors, and any other defects.
I'd like $125, shipped in the United States.
