Hi Guys,
I just received a couple hats from Charlie Swindal (The Gladhatter) yesterday. One of them is a Milan weave fedora from Bilmore hats in Canada. I have a few Panama hats, including two that Art blocked, one of which I bought from Robert (Panamabob). I like the panama hats, but it...
Hi Guys,
I just got a couple new hats from Charlie Swindal yesterday... One is a 25X Hickory color fedora. When I first contacted Charlie several months ago, I asked him if he thought that I could be proud to be seen in a lowly 25X hat, or would I be looked down on by the "hat snobs" for...
Hi guys,
I waited to post anything about my newest hat, because I wanted to wear it a while before I commented on it. Then the excrement hit the fan, and I never got back to do it. Anyway, here goes...
I ordered one of Art's new hats made from one of his vintage bodies. I still don't...
Hi Sharpetoys,
The last time I exchanged email with Fedora, he was only planning on doing brown hats. Are the ones you got from him indi brown, or were you able to twist his arm and get other colors?
I don't care much for dark brown, actually...
Keep smiling,

Hi Guys,

Hi guys,
Some of you probably thought that the headline about hell freezing over only referred to Boston winning their playoffs... The truth of the matter is that I finally found a vintage hat on ebay that fit my oversized melon! I've been on pins and needles all week waiting for it to...
Hi Guys,
I apologize for posting information about the vintage hat bodies that have become available under the wrong thread. Logic should have told me that it would look like I was trying to hijack a thread mentioning one supplier, by posting a reply about another supplier.
I assure you...
Hi guys,
I heard from Charlie last night that he had finally gotten some of the vintage bodies he's been waiting for. He's quite pleased with what he sees so far, but he's going to finish one or two hats to see how they finish out.
I know how you guys like vintage felt, and since Charlie...
Hi guys,
I don't know if you're still interested in pictures of the new GH 1000x's. I still don't have a digital camera, so I had Charlie send me some links to the pictures of the hats before he shipped them. After I got the Pecan one, I liked it so well that I had him make me a Silver...
Hi,
Late Friday afternoon, I received my new Pecan colored 1000X Sterling Beaver Fedora from the Gladhatter. It is without a doubt the finest hat I've ever seen.
I haven't posted before, but I know from lurking for the past few months that Charlie is not the most popular vendor with...
