    WHO made Johnny Depps hats for Public Enemies

    Depp's lid looks like the 47th Street model on the Optimo website.

    Homburg with dents

    Haven't posted in a while, but this thread has piqued my interest. I think a homburg with dents looks infinitely better that one without, it's a little surprising that more people don't wear theirs that way. Are there any modern production homburgs (I know Akubra makes one, but only in black)...

    7 1/4 Long Stetson

    Man, my question keeps sinking to the bottom. A conspiracy, I say!;) Anyway, could anybody who has a Stetson (Whippet or similar) 7 1/4 Long please give me the interior measurements from front to back and side to side? Thanks!

    Regular Oval vs Long Oval

    new strategy! Okay, new idea. Would anyone who has a Whippet (or similar Stetson) in 7 1/4 Long measure the interior front to back and side to side? That seems like the easiest way for me to figure out if if I can wear a Long Oval or not. Thanks!

    Regular Oval vs Long Oval

    After a recent post of mine, I'm still trying to figure this long oval thing out. There's a Whippet on Ebay now that's exactly what I want (and am probably crazy enough to pay a premium for), except for one thing--it's 7 1/4 Long. According to the chart in this post, and after comparing my 7...

    7 1/8 Long

    I have a Stetson Royal De Luxe in regular 7 1/8 that I'm able to get away with wearing by sitting it on the top/back of my head. I just wasn't sure if a 7 1/8 long oval Stetson might fit a bit better. The ideal of course is 7 1/4, but those pickins' are slim! Just trying to expand my options...

    7 1/8 Long

    How well would a hat sized 7 1/8 Long fit someone (me!) with a regular size of 7 1/4?

    Whippet (or clone) wanted!!

    I know this is an extreme long shot, but I'm looking for a Whippet or clone with similar looks in size 7 1/4, preferably brown or grey. I'm not having any luck on Ebay. Can anyone help? Please, please?

    Where have all the good hats gone?

    Has anybody found any good hat auctions on the Bay recently? Seems to me over the last week or so there's been an alarming lack of drool-worthy listings...[huh]

    Pre-fedora fedoras?

    I'm finding that recently I'm really digging early fedoras-- you know, late 1800's-early 1900's--the ones that look like a hybrid of a Homburg and a fedora (kind of like the one Daniel Day Lewis wears in "The Age of Innocence.") I suppose they began from men just pinching the fronts of their...

    Cannot wear stingies anymore?

    I usually switch between an Open Road, an Akubra Stylemaster, and a Royal DeLuxe. Yesterday, I wore a porkpie I hadn't had on in a while and was uncomfortable and uneasy all day.

    Really Small Borsalino Hat

    Borsalino sizing I've often wondered when looking at vintage Borsalinos on OFAS, when the size is labeled in the hat as 7 1/8, 7 1/4, etc., is that the British size or American? I guess it might partly depend on where the hat was originally sold.

    Akubra Hampton/Whippet

    Does anyone know the differences in Akubra's Hampton and Whippet? Dimension-wise, they look like practically the same hat.

    To wait, or not to wait?

    Hello! I'm new here and a confessed hataholic. A few weeks ago I purchased an Akubra Stylemaster from Everything Australian. My debit was charged the next day, but a week passed and I hadn't received a shipping notice. I emailed them and they replied that Akubra's shipping dept. had been on...
