    What we have to put up with!

    This was truly a horrible article by a less than talented "journalist". I understand he meant it to be satirical or witty but overall it's just poorly written. I am 6' 4'' and about 250lbs so I don't get a lot of smart ass comments. People may think I look "dorky" but at least they keep thier...

    The Okie From Muskogee's Hats

    That was a great documentary and I noticed about 50 different lids in it. It's like the lounge Motto " If a guy doesn't have a lid, he is not worth talking about."

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    I love that hat! That's exactly what I want. My hat budget will be built up again in a couple months and then I'm getting an Art.

    Panama Hat Thread

    Stetson Andover Here's my newest straw. It took a lonf time for me to get it right because it just didn't want to snap down in front but after working on it for a couple months off and on I've got it to hold it the way I like it. I really like the two-tone as well. I've got some "nicer" straws...

    Hat Sightings

    This isn't really a "sighting" story but the other day I was flying from Lima, Peru to Houston and I was wearing the hat in my avatar and a sports coat and the woman at the counter upgraded me to business class. She said "you look like you deserve to be upgraded". The flight was pretty empty so...

    Stetson Retro Panama Straw Hat

    Mine was a little "dry rotted" when I bought it. It has 3 breaks in it now but I just put a band-aid on the inside and a little elmers wood glue and I still wear it a lot. You can't see where I've patched it but I wish I had manipulated it a little more at the store before I bought it. It was my...

    Show us your late 50s early 60s hats

    WOW! This is one of the nicest presentations I've ever seen. I saw a similar box in an antique shop but alas there was no hat in it. Beautiful.

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    Stetson 20 Soveriegn My first successful bid off the bay. It looked rough in the pictures but after I cleaned it and reshaped it it's fine. It had a couple "rough" spots but they sanded right off. It's a small 7 3/8 but I'm real happy with it.

    Black Sports Coat w/Khakis

    Thanks Norton. I've always been very casual and wearing a suit or sports jacket is new to me.

    Black Sports Coat w/Khakis

    I've had a blue collar job most of my life but have recently moved into management. My workplace is basically business casual. My question is whether it's acceptable to wear a black sports coat with khakis. If it is should I pare this with black shoes and belt or would brown belt and shoes be...

    The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD

    You get used to the comments and it really boils down to what YOU like. I heard it a lot at work when I started showing up every day in a hat. Now about 8 months later everybody comments if I wear the same one too many days in a row. I even had one kid say "Where's the Stetson? Men listen to a...

    Where or How Do You Store Your Hats?

    I keep my silverbelly westerns wrapped in acid free tissue paper in thier boxes but I cycle through my other ones (when I'm home) so much I just hang them on the european mounted deer antlers I have in my dressing room. I'm gone from home for weeks at a time and then have long periods of time...

    PSA: Brooks Brothers has hats on sale...

    That's a good deal on the Temple. I've never seen one with that brim treatment or those dimensions. Not the regular Temple for sure. I get aggravated by the S,M,L option also.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Thanks for the kind words. I wear every kind of hat but really enjoy the fedoras. I've bought 5 or 6 in the last few months but always seem to gravitate towards the Temple. I'm in the market for a nice OR Silverbelly 7 3/8 or 7 1/2. I think it would go with more clothes than a grey or black.

    Hat Horror Stories

    I left my dressing room door open and had a number of hats (2 ORs and a modern Temple) laying on the couch. My 110# Chocolate Lab jumped right on top of them and slept all night. When I woke up in the morning I was mad more at myself than the dog. Luckily I was able to work out all the creases...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Nice hats the last few days as usual. It doesn't usually get cold enough for me to wear a jacket so I had a tough choice of what to pare it with today The old Resistol Wide Country or the Temple I went with the Temple. I prefer to wear my old Resistol with a brown leather coat. I...
