    Newsboy from Dillard's

    I was in Dillard's the other day and found a selection of Country Gentleman hats, and caps. I have been wanting to try a few of the styles like the newsboy, and ascot type caps. I went back today for a second look, and found out they had been marked down. I decided to get the newsboy ($11.00) ...

    New Cap

    I need opinions. I have been wanting to try this style of cap for a while, and was on the verge of ordering one from Hanna Hats in Ireland. The thing is $50.00 is a lot to spend if your not sure if you'll like it. So I orderd this Jaxon herringbone ivy cap for $12.00. The quality of the cap is a...

    Brown Hat and Black Coat?

    I just recently received this beautiful brown Stetson porkpie I scored on e-bay. The only problem is the only overcoats I own are black. Does a brown hat look ok with a black coat. I have another brown hat, but I wear it with very casual clothing. This one can go casual or dressy.

    Steam Wins!

    For those of you who are still using a spray bottle to shape your hats, take the advice of the many loungers who have advocated steam as the way to shape. I finally broke down and got myself a tea kettle, and the results are amazing. It is so much easier to obtain the results you are wanting...

    Hat Stiffener ?

    I stopped by the local western store (the only hat store around) to pick up a few hat sponges, and other items. I was going to buy some stiffener for one of the hats I had bought on e-bay. The lady at the store said they did have it, but told me that if I wanted to save money to use hair spray...

    Need Gray Fedora

    I need help deciding on a gray fedora to wear with suits. I like the Akubra CEO from Hats Direct, but would like something with a smaller brim. Not a stingy, but more of a med brim. I do like the price of the Akubras right now and would like to stay in that price range. Also I want a pre creased...

    New Stingy

    I just received my "new" vintage Knox Stingy brim I won on e-bay, and I love it. I don't know if I look better in a stingy brim, but I definately feel more at ease wearing it. I don't feel nearly as conspicuious out in public. I'm not sure why. The cloth style ribbon really goes well with the...

    Crooked Hat Band

    I have decided to reshape my DM Adventurer, and as I was doing so realized for the first time that the sweat band is sewn in off center. I dont know why I never noticed this before. The hat as everyone here knows has the dimensional brim, being shorter on the sides. When you look at the hat from...

    What kind of hat is this.

    I didn't get much response on the e-bay thread, does anyone have an idea as to what brand this hat might be? The only clue from the discription would be the "water bloc" and possibly the Commentator. I've e-mailed the seller for more info but haven't heard back yet. Also by looking at the large...

    Hello Again

    Hello again to everyone! After moving to a new town, changing jobs, and reenlisting in the National Guard. I finally have time to post. I tried to upload pics of all my hats. My DM Adventurer, Snowy River, Riverina, and Texas Ranger Captain's hat. I reshaped the Riverina to have a western style...

    First Reshape

    I decided to reshape my Snowy River's brim today. When I got the hat I was suprised at how much of a roll the sides had. It really didn't look anything like the picture I had seen on the websites. I just turned the hot water water on in the shower, soaked it good, and went for it. I wouldn't...

    Question About Akubra Liners

    Both of my Akubras have liners. In the photos I have seen of unlined Akubras they have the Akubra stickers attached to the inside of the crown, as do most unlined hats. If the liner is removed would a hat with a liner have this sticker, or is it only placed on models that are ordered that way.

    Cold Rainy Night = New Akubra

    I went out to a few stores tonight, and for some reason decided not to wear one of my hats. When coming out of the book store I noticed the temperture had dropped, and it was starting to rain, a few miles down the road when I stop to fill up my car. It had gotten very cold, windy, and was...

    Dobbs Game Bird?

    I was at the local flea market today, and saw a nice Dobbs fedora for $25.00. On the sweat band it had Game Bird and the name of a local hat store here in SC. I don't know if it's still in business. According to the man selling the hat it was made in 1955. It appeared to be fur felt, with a very...

    Hat band or ribbon

    I ordered my Akubra Riverina because of the great price, but it's quickly becoming my favorite hat. The only thing I don't like about it is the cheap band it comes with. I was thinking of replacing it with a thin ribbon. What do you guys think, would that look good on this style hat, or would a...

    Akubra Colors?

    I'm sure this has come up before, and I've seen some mention of others trying to compare colors from various sites, but has anyone else noticed that on the Akubra website(and others) they show several hats supposedly in the same colors that look nowhere near the same. This can be very confusing...
