    I mean it's danglin, swingin around the hat. Lol. It doesn't seem to have a fixed spot. Is there something to do with it? Should I clip it orkeep it?

    Nice. Got it, that a good brushing with a decent brush helps "cean" it out. How about this-what is the danger? What's the harmful thing here? Had not considered a mask situation in the cleaning/prep to wearing a vintage hat.

    Nice. Thanks. I contemplated taking them to my hatter for a clean, but I guess all he'd be doing was what you describe--which is what I can do. Is there a brush recommendation that's general knowledge?

    Just got a couple of vintage Stetsons in box. Nice but a little "oldish" looking (dusty, etc.). Do you guys just wear your vintage buys, or is there a process you go through to clean them up a little? Probably not much to be nervous about after they've been sitting awhile,, right? Head lice?

    Those are nice. Mine has the same material--seems almost like a Selentino Queen--but a same-felt, and thinner, ribbon. Perhaps its earlier than yours?

    Looking for hat information?

    I have recently taken in this new specimen and wonder if anyone is familiar with the brand. It's pretty clean, so I might just wipe it down and wear it. It's got kind of a velour feel to it. Pictures are below:

    How many hats do you have...?

    Guys, I need a little moral support. I'm sitting here thinking about how I'm going to pull the trigger on a vintage Stratoliner just because I need that one in my lineup--I could use another color! Of ccourse, I have a vintage Stratoliner as well as a newer model; in fact, hadn't had time to...
