    Modern Open Road Stetson Question

    Hi fellow loungers. I’m looking at a mid 1970s 5X Stetson Open Road. I know that the quality of Stetsons varies wildly with the different eras, so I’m hoping that someone here can attest to that specific combo. It’s a long oval, which is great for me and rare, but I want to make sure I’m not...

    The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD

    Thanks for the info! The hat is currently off being restored. My dad had it for more than forty years and used it hard. Here's a photo I snapped before sending it off.

    The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD

    Hi, I'm hoping a sharp-eyed Borsalino expert can glean some information from this old tag (if there's any to be had). Anything would be interesting, manufacture date, style name, etc. Just trying to get more info on my Dad's old hat. Thanks much!

    The hats of our fathers

    Well guess what was under that duct tape sweat band:

    The hats of our fathers

    Has anybody had a hat restored by Mike at Northwest Hats in Eugene, OR? Bob at Black Sheep hasn't gotten back to me, but I've been talking with Mike and he seems like a really good guy. He's got a three-month backlog of hat restorations right now, so I'm just hoping to get a little word of...

    The hats of our fathers

    Interesting, was this a common feature on war-era hats? I haven't seen it on any of my various hats, the oldest of which is from the '60s.

    The hats of our fathers

    That's weird, my thread just got folded into an old thread from 2008. I assume a mod did this, but I'm not sure why...?

    The hats of our fathers

    That duct tape sweatband is just my Dad to a T. Something needs fixing, what do I have that can fix it, that'll work, moving on. He came from a place and a time where you either fixed it yourself or it didn't get fixed. Interesting similarity with the Borsalino, too. I'd pretty much given up...

    The hats of our fathers

    It's been quite a while since I posted here at The Fedora Lounge, but I thought this was worth coming back for. When I was a kid, I always remember my dad wearing a uniform of sorts, when he wasn't at work. Blue jeans, always. Sturdy brown leather shoes and belt (never black). Plaid flannel...

    Matt Deckard Apparel

    I just realized, Matt, this is the first opportunity you've had to actually see it on me. As you can see (and as Indy has testified) you nailed the look pretty well. Dan

    Matt Deckard Apparel

    Some more photos for discussion This is my Matt Deckard suit. I've had it for a while now, and I'm still trying to formulate a proper review. Just to give a bit of perspective, I'm 6'5", 185 lbs, and probably not the easiest guy in the world to fit.

    Post New Hats Here!

    New Knox Nice vintage Knox from the 'bay. I have it at Optimo right now being cleaned and blocked, as well as having the brim trimmed to 2 1/4. I wanted a narrower ribbon for it, but unfortunately there is a ribbon line, so no go. Still a nice hat, though. I'm definitely going for a...
