    How to keep moths away?

    Hey folks, I just moved to Colorado and there are more moths here than I thought possible! They keep getting in the house no matter how fast I shut the door. I keep my hats hung on a wall, is there a good way to keep the moths at bay without putting them (the hats) all in boxes with...

    I had a Stetson turn pink once! The crown though, not the sweat. ;)

    US Wings garment quality

    Nope, dark brown goat. In answer to your first post, a US Wings will last you a very long time. Great solid quality, I can't imagine either of mine wearing out from normal use.

    US Wings garment quality

    I went with a 42 Long for the G-1. I'm 6'3'' 205. If you want that close fit in the torso, but enough length in the arms, go down a size from your norm and get it in long. It at least worked for me. You can still type in your size in the Wings order form, and also let them know you want a...

    US Wings garment quality

    I have two uswings jackets, an Indy and a G-1, they're both awesome. The G-1 has a great close fit. For the money, I say go for it. I would never want to spend more than 400 bucks on a jacket, so they're perfect for me! It is too bad that Wings has left their true sizing behind, ordering...

    US Wings G-1: Any pics?

    I am looking to buy a US Wings G-1. I have one of their indy jackets and I am sold on the quality, but I am not sold on the G-1 pic on their site, it looks very baggy/puffy. You never know what a jacket truly looks like until it is worn, so the call goes out: anyone with a pic of their US...

    Cooper USA

    Gift of Wings Okay, I called Gift of Wings, the fella said that Cooper has stopped making jackets, but swear they will be back up soon. He did say they had a few left in stock, so anyone that wants one at the old price should email him about availability.

    Cooper USA

    Yeah, I found a lot of sites that list them as out of stock. I sent an email to Gift of Wings, so I guess we'll find out soon! If they are out of date, I'll get a US wings G-1, or one cooper I found at a local shop. Thanks for your reply!

    Need info on vintage Stetson Find

    I thought it was a lot like a Whippet too, except it has a much larger brim than other whippets i've seen, and its an imperial quality rather than royal. Could it be a pre-whippet whippet? The original that inspired its own line in years to come? I would love to think its from the 40's, its...

    Need info on vintage Stetson Find

    I found this hat today at a second hand store here in Seattle. It has a light brown sweat with "Imperial Stetson vita-felt process" stamped in gold. The liner says Imperial Stetson. I would love any info on this hat, era, felt, name etc.

    Post Steam Pink Hue, how long?

    It was the only stetson in the store, out of the style I wanted, without some issue i couldn't live with. I was shocked by so many irregularities in almost all of their hats. The hue is barely visable, so I'll probably live with it, I'll see how I feel later.
