    FS - New With Tags Bill's Khakis - M1 Lightweight Poplin

    I ordered these pants about a year ago because they were on sale and I couldn't resist. Well, I never came up with anything to wear them with, and it's now time to clean out my closet. These are the Bill's M1 style poplin khakis, as seen here, yes, for $125! The pair I have still have ALL the...

    FS: Akubra Squatter - Like New

    As much as it saddens me, I'm selling what I call my "Villain Hat". It's the perfect black, wide brimmed hat to wear while tying a damsel to railroad tracks, or plotting schemes under cover of night. In all seriousness, this is a great hat. It was given to me a couple years ago and I have only...

    FS: Vintage Brown Portis

    This is a vintage (60's and after, most likely) chocolate brown Portis. It is a size 7 long oval and has a 2" brim. This hat has a great color that the photos just can't capture. It also has a cool tiny little gold eagle pin in the band which I'm including. Also included is the original Portis...

    FS: Vintage 20s-30s Grey Stetson

    This is a great example of the hats of this era. It has an impressive high 5" crown and is perfect to accessorize with your serious vintage suits. It is a size 7, and has a 1 3/4" brim, which has an unfinished edge. I purchased this hat from Mark Chevalier and he gave me the info, so I trust the...

    FS - Vintage Grey Stetson

    Time to thin down my hat collection! This is a vintage (60's or 70's?) grey Stetson. It's in great condition, and used to be my go-to fedora. It is a size 7, the brim is 2 3/4" brim. I am asking $45 USD including shipping. If you need any more information or specific photos don't hesitate to...

    My New Vintage Cake Dome!

    I just won this stainless steel cake plate and dome from eBay! It went for a whopping $2.99 ($15.88 with shipping when all was said and done). I've been borrowing my friend Sarah's cake dome for over a year now, and she's been barking to get it back. So, I just happened to come across this...

    Drowning My Akubra Squatter

    Recently, I was discussing my new Akubra Squatter in this thread. I had tried to bash it by hand and it didn't turn out how I wanted. A few fellow Loungers (jazzncocktails, Daoud, CRH) gave me some great tips on using water and steam (technically water too) to bash it properly. I decided to...

    Best Bottles to Age

    I've decided to think waaaay ahead, and buy some good bottles of whiskey, wine, etc. to age for several years. I plan on giving some as gifts, and of course, enjoying some myself. I am a very occasional drinker, and I usually stick to a few favorite drinks. Martinis are the staple. I know...

    The Whiskey Sour

    I'm having a little get together this evening with some co-workers in my home. I've decided to make whiskey sours along with some other libations. I've never had or made one before, so I'm new to this. Ingredient #1 I'm sure of, a bottle of Maker's Mark. Check. Now, I hate the sour mix you...

    Your Favorite Catalogs

    Before we all shopped online with the click of a mouse, we thumbed through catalogs! Though I get a lot of junk, there are a few gems I look forward to checking out. Of course there are the usuals, J. Peterman and Brooks Brothers. I also LOVE the annual Ikea catalog, and I'm anxiously...

    Don't Know About Stingy Brims Anymore...

    Well I'm having a hat transitional period. I've been selling off a lot of the old/ugly/too big hats I don't wear, and I'm only down to a couple that fit and I like. Unfortunately, I realize they're all stingy brims. For some reason, I don't like how they look on me anymore, and therefore...

    Suspenders For D-Rings?

    I recently purchased three pairs of European military wool trousers. They're not super vintage style, but not especially modern either. They're thick wool and will be great in the winter. Only $4.88 a pair on clearance at Cabela's, so that was the deciding factor. On to my question...

    WWII Khaki Army Shirt.. What Do I Have?

    Hi everyone. I just won one of these shirts on EBAY. The description really just says 1945 army khaki shirt. The price was right so I got one. I was wondering if this was an officer's shirt or enlisted, or really any details I can get. Are these sort of shirts a dime a dozen at surplus...

    Iron Man Inspired by Howard Hughes

    I admit, I'm pretty excited about the upcoming Iron Man movie. Wealthy, eccentric, billionaire, playboy, and inventor. Wait, that sounds familiar. I was reading an article on Yahoo today, "Just The Facts on Iron Man", and I came across an interesting tidbit. "FACT THREE: 'The Aviator'...

    Stetson Homburg, Size 7 FS

    This is a dark chocolate brown Stetson Homburg, size 7. It's in great condition. I did stick that red feather in another hat though, so no guarantees if I can include it, but I'll include one either way. The color really is striking. It looks black in these pictures, but it's really a very...

    Beautiful 7 1/8 Borsalino FS

    I have an amazing tan Borsalino for sale. I hate to part with it, but it's a touch too big for me. I'd rather pass it on to someone who will wear and enjoy it. I figured I'd try the Lounge first, as I'd rather someone here have it. There is no tag displaying the size, so I measured it. The...

    Using a Fountain Pen

    I looked for an existing thread on this topic, but I didn't find anything. If there is one, please direct me. I acquired a Parker Latitude fountain pen a few months ago. It's my first fountain pen, I've never even touched one before this. Of course, it was my beloved Fedora Lounge that...

    iPods! Yay!

    Well I got an iPod for my 25th birthday (which is today, Monday 1/7 :) ). The black iPod Classic 80GB model to be precise. I've been playing around with it for a couple days and I see why they're so popular. I feel like I'm a few years behind. I used to have a Creative Zen Touch, but it...

    What musical instrument do you play..?

    I recently started taking piano lessons, and I was just wondering if anyone else here played an instrument. I've only been playing for a few months, so i'm no virtuoso. What instrument do you play? How long have you been playing? What types of music do you like to play? Are you, or have you...

    I Met Food Network's Alton Brown Today

    I got a call from my roommate this afternoon, telling me that Alton Brown was sitting in his restaurant having cheesecake. I'm a huge fan of Good Eats and Iron Chef America so I rushed down there, hoping to get a chance to say hello. Well, the place was empty except for him and his two...
