    Fallout 3

    I don't know if we've got any computer game threads and understandable, they aren't exactly vintage fare, but i bought this game when i came back home about a month and a half ago and have been totally.. dangerously hooked ever since. Basically, if you aren't familiar with the series its a role...

    vintage FEDORA by Hughes & Hatcher 7-1/8ths size

    I just got this hat two days ago on ebay. Its a GREAT hat and i'd love to keep it (its in what appears to be perfect condition, as you can tell from the link on ebay) but for my slightly larger head size. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280442000892 Keep in mind that this...

    Kangol Enfield Caps... (HELP NEEDED)

    Hi, my father is a big fan of this particular cap and has been looking for one all over, but never gets it so i figured it would make a great christmas gift. I've got one that was given to me by one of his friends back home but i can't seem to find anything like it anymore save the "fisherman"...

    Bailey hats.

    I know Bailey tends to make low quality hats, but most of my early hat purchases were baileys. Face it, when a teenager or something goes looking to buy a hat he just saw in some movie or in a picture somewhere, he's not going to look at the 250 dollar hat.. he's going to go for the 30 dollar...

    Dark colored dress shirts (and other colors) in the golden era

    I wanted to start a thread on this topic because i notice in most movies and most pictures i've seen from the golden era, men generally wore plain white dress shirts or maybe wore those white/cream colored dress shirts with small dots on them but I never see any other colors outside of say a...

    Howard Unruh dies...

    http://www.nytimes.com/2009/10/20/nyregion/20unruh.html I've done alot of reading up on spree killers, serial killers, and those who go on shooting rampages, and i've known about this fellow for awhile. He's been in an institution for practically 60 years now. I wonder if they ever found out...

    Linney's hats?

    I stumbled upon a brown fur felt fedora at a shop in Kerry earlier today . I've seen these in tourist shops before, it cost me 64 euro but being that it is fur felt i figured it was worth buying. Anyone heard of this brand (Linney's) before? Here are some photos of the hat, it seems to be a...

    A hat problem

    I have been wearing my old fedora more (i've posted it in pictures) and i just noticed the other day that the wire at the back is sticking out and a mess.. i kind of panicked since this is an OLD and priceless hat (for me). My question is should i stop wearing it until i get it fixed, where can...

    Two questions (in one)!

    If i'm posting this in the wrong area my apologies, but i'm just trying to gage opinions on two (semi related) items. I'm looking at my favorite place for cheap suits, http://www.mensusa.com for a decent white suit to wear during the summer, and also i was wondering what anyone had to say about...

    Question on Sunglasses

    I've seen some threads with various sunglasses discussed, but none of them adequately answered a specific question that came to mind so i figured i'd be straightfoward. I'm a big fan of the way Captain Vidal from Pan's Labyrinth was played and carried himself. I particularly liked the sunglasses...

    Men's Hair question

    This section mentions "hair" as an object of discussion so i figure i'll pose the question burning. If this is somehow the wrong section (i know its FOR GIRLS.. but its a hair question right.. that counts.. right?) please do me the honor of moving it elsewhere but i actually have been meaning to...

    m 43 field caps

    I just got two field caps from a seller from hong kong on ebay. I despise baseball caps and don't like those trendy military caps some people like to wear now (the type of cap castro wears, but now its being adopted by teenage girls everywhere) so i decided to get the german m43s from WWII...

    Strange way to wear a tie..

    I've noticed on two separate prominent figures in the thirties a very odd way to wear a tie- very short and hanging outside the suit. Was this a trend back then? It looks absolutely ridiculous. here are two examples: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9kKQ4m1OmO8 a video of gardel wearing it...

    Carlos Gardel

    I'm a huge fan of tango, my grandfather used to be a tango singer himself in clubs (mostly cuban social clubs) but when he died i got most of his cassettes and plenty of Gardel ones. Besos y amores, cartas viejas, and el sol del 25 are my favorites, although of course, i like his more famous...

    Evening folks! Perhaps you could assist me with a waistcoat query.

    Well this is my first post here so i suppose i'll introduce myself- I'm a college student and i guess i've got an old fashioned mindset, but I've always been a fan of the Gentleman's clothing of the good old days before people stopped caring about this. While indeed clothing isn't the most...
