    Post New Hats Here!

    Thank you so much for your help! The brim is very wide (I love wide brims!) - not sure the exact length. Maybe just under 3.

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

    I am not sure if this is the right thread for this, but a couple of years ago I bought a Royal Deluxe Stetson on eBay. It is a size 7 and in very good shape. I don't ever wear it because I realized I liked it more in the photos than in person; just my personal style and taste - I don't like...

    Post New Hats Here!

    Very cool! I own a vintage tan Open Road that is in fantastic shape, except for the crown which seems to have been beat up a bit from not being properly stored. I've been trying to get a diamond crease going on it but it is very stubborn. I also am a real newbie at this and am definitely not...

    What's a wind trolley?

    I just won a vintage Alessandria Borsalino and it has a wind trolley on it. I have not received it yet and this will be my first hat with one; is it easy to take off if I don't like it?

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

    Sounds like a score! Thanks, DJH. Yeah, the Alessandria I purchased was in mint condition (well from the photos, waiting for the hat to come) has a very wide brim (I only wear wide brims) and a really beautiful color (again, from the photos). Really looking forward to getting it and putting...

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

    Thanks, guys. I luck out cause I have a small head; size 6 7/8 or 7. This was a 7 and really hope it fits great...I paid enough for it to! Anyway, excited about the Borsalino. Always wanted it in my collection and glad I own one now. Anxious to get it and wear it :)

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

    Just won a vintage Borsalino Alessandria on eBay with a best offer win. I paid a lot for it, but I always wanted one, and now this completes my small "collection"; I own two Stetson Stratoliners, a Stetson Open Road, a Lee Trinity, a Churchill, and now the Borsalino Alessandria.

    Like hell it's yours! Hat cards

    I think I need this sign to put on my back; why do people feel the need to touch my hats just cause it is "vintage." Because it is vintage don't you think people would think they shouldn't touch it? And then they want to try it on. I appreciate their curiosity but some people need to learn...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    It's pissing rain here in NYC, but I am grabbing an umbrella and not letting it get in the way of wearing my blue/grey Stetson Stratoliner for the first time. This hat needs some fresh air. I'll try my best to keep it dry.

    Ask a question, get an answer

    Looking to bring my Stetson Open Road in to Worth and Worth here in NYC to get it re-shaped and cleaned a bit. I haven't been here in a while but remember there was a thread with someone displaying their great talent for re-shaping hats, with quite a few different shapes shown with their proper...

    Stratoliners. Vintage or new?

    I wore one of my vintage grey Stetson Stratoliners last week here in NYC and got so many compliments. Love my Stratoliner. I have another one too, which I one on eBay last year but have not worn yet. It is a grey blue and is beautiful. I had the original ribbon replaced on it though, went...

    Woman wearing Hats

    I think the clothes Nicole is wearing there completes the outfit and makes the hat look better on her. If she was wearing a t-shirt and jeans it would look awful in my opinion.

    Woman wearing Hats

    I am usually not a fan of a woman in a men's hat. I think woman who wear hats designed for women look beautiful but most of them who try to wear a man's hat look pretty ridiculous most of the time, especially if they are dressed in casual clothes. There is a real trend here in NYC now with...
