    Which TV personality needs a hat?

    Ok...I was watching Mythbusters, and really enjoy the fact both hosts wear hats. I also watch Anthony Bourdain (No Reservations) and Andrew Zimmern (Bizarre Foods) on the Travel Channel...and both of these guys could definitely use some sporty lids. Andrew is bald, and often wears some $1.50...

    Akubra Bushman from DM

    Well....got my Bushman from David Morgan...I lamented about what size to order, what with all the Akubra size stories. I have a Snowy River (60) and an Adventurer (also 60). The first fits just fine and the latter...is a bit to tight. Measured my head over and over just to make sure. I...

    6 7/8 Knox Homburg

    I came across a Knox homburg... Mink brown superfine. Size 6 7/8 (way too small for me). Do I post this in the classifieds section or should I try to find a buyer on the bay?
