    Brim Width and Head Size

    To me, hats are the epitome of style and one should not get to worked up about trying to match a brim to the size of their head or shape of their face. I'd like to encourage folks to make the style statement a fine hat allows and enjoy every moment of it. I think if you are enjoying the style...

    Berets, Anyone?

    @Daan: Thanks, that would be helpful. I realize there are many variables, but still some comparing photos would be great. And just to let you know, I did place an order off your website - but was feeling apprehensive with no experience with berets under my belt. Years ago I went through a...

    Berets, Anyone?

    Side-By-Side Comparison of Beret Diamaters I've looked through this entire thread and the SPB website. I appreciate the helpful info on how berets are measured and the different diameters available. What appears to be missing, and is only shown sporadically, is how the varying diameters...

    grammy hat??

    Interesting article about the history of Pharrell's hat - which was produced by Vivienne Westwood over 30 year ago. http://nymag.com/thecut/2014/01/pharrells-grammys-hat-not-so-ridiculous.html At the same link, don't miss the Buffalo Gals hip hop video featuring Ms. Westwood's hats.

    grammy hat??

    I just got around to looking for this thread. I knew there would be a discussion on Fedora Lounge about the hat Pharrel wore at the Grammys. However, I was surprised by so many derogatory comments by so many posters. Yeah, I can see that many would not want to wear that particular hat the way...

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

    We have a Stetson trilby with a back bow from the mid-1950's. The hat has little wear and the bow appears original. I have seen other Stetsons with the exact same bow on the back. I think hats were offered with a back bow. Our example is a size 6-3/4, so possibly on smaller sizes?

    Recommend hat shop for brim trim and rebinding?

    Byrnie Utz Hats in Seattle trimmed my fedora's brim today and did an excellent job. They use a special tool that removes 1/8-inch at a time. It only took about 10 minutes to trim my brim, making 5 passes with the tool before I said "that looks good!". I highly recommend them if you are...

    The Single & Ridiculously Good-Lookin' Room

    Well, if the girls sometimes end up with men that are jerks, then maybe we could say a few men end up with CRAZY women? :)

    My Search for a Mate is Confined to my Sock Drawer

    I think you are right. Men are sometimes even praised for staying single. Women never so - even in this modern age . . . .

    Fellas living with froufrou?

    Thanks Miss Sis! I like my women feminine and to be girly-girls, but pink in the bedroom is too much for me!

    My Search for a Mate is Confined to my Sock Drawer

    So who thinks it is easier to be a single man or a single woman? I guess as a guy I've always thought it was easier for me. There always seemed to be lots of dating choices - the challenge is to make the right choices and to not jump to fast into something serious!

    Vintage Havana

    I was in San Francisco last weekend and at the Farmer's Market down by the Ferry Building, I say a booth by a Cuban photographer with very cool vintage-look photos of Havana. Caused me to think that the ultimate vintage gathering might be in Havana. Have any Loungers made it there?
