    First Time Hat Buyer Info Thread - A Compendeum of Advice

    I have a "whiskey" colored Art Fawcett hat. The whiskey color is for all practical purposes a variation of brown. I had Art put a black ribbon on the hat which, in my estimation gives me much more versatality. I can and have wore my hat with blue and gray suits; black shirts; green shirts...

    Panama Hat Thread

    Bluesman61, very, very nice hat. Too bad about the wave. You could hang ten on that rascal. Art, will no doubt, remedy the situation. Mr E Train, wise choice on the pug v ribbon swap. Really makes it happen. 150719541, that hat looks cool in more ways than one.

    Free Shaving Cream

    Thanks Many thanks to Brian the SlyGI for affording me the opportunity to try his shaving cream. I've used it twice and am very pleased with every aspect of it. I very much like the fragrance and enjoy that it doesn't linger. It provides for a very lubricated shave. I applied it by hand...

    Touché Tonyb for similarly good advice for which I do indeed heed. Presuming that my comment may have been misinterpreted, I will say that I am not against manners. In fact I believe that I have more manners than most. I actually had to teach my wife to wait for me to open her door. I...

    It is quite obvious there are many different opinions on this matter. At the risk of offending anyone's sensibilities I say get over yourself. Your dad or granddad's world is gone. There could be any myriad of reasons why he is wearing his hat at the table. Retaurants of this day and age are...

    Art Fawcett VS Hall of Fame

    You gotta start somewhere so it may as well be the beginning Bman, I'm feeling your pain. I just went through it. I told Art that I felt like a girl not being able to make up my mind. In the end the final product was/is fantastic. :)

    Which ribbon treatment do you like better on this hat?

    I agree I think that Andykev hit the nail on the head. I'll take a wide over thin any day, just no too wide.

    Art Fawcett VS Hall of Fame

    DRB - Yes jporgeck, tell us more. What color is that? Whiskey? DRB, yes it is "whiskey" color. The indor picture, at least on my monitor, most acurately depicts the deep, rich, mellow whiskey color with just an ever so slight hint of olive.

    Panama Hat Thread

    Ordered the diagonal last weekend from PB in a 3" brim. Robert is supposed to have it sent directly to Art Fawcett for the blocking and ribbon work. In a society of instant gratification waiting for a fine hat is very humbling.

    Hmmmmmm I'm kinda surprised with myself. I think I really like that hat. Not sure if I could pull it off though. The polka dot ribbon looks really cool.
