    What this forum needs is a gallery

    There are so many nice pictures posted here, but finding that certain "one" can be difficult. And the images on the different vendors sites rarely give an accurate depiction of what the hats look like on a real head. It would be really nice to have a gallery that is searchable by name or type so...

    Is there any way to look suave and debonair while chasing a hat down the street?

    I walked out of a building today and a gust of wind took my hat off. I spun around to find it, but it was nowhere to be seen. The wind had picked it up like a kite and blown it about 20' in the air. It was really sailing! I was afraid it was going to land on a roof somewhere. At least it was...

    In honor of St. Pat's Day - show us your Irish walking hats

    I'll go first: This hat was my father's. It is an honor to wear it now that he's gone.

    Does anyone wear their hats tipped back?

    I've always felt more comfortable with my hat tipped back on my head. My family and friends, whose opinions I respect, say I look like I'm ready to go fishin' on the Mississippi when I do that. Being bald, it tends to emphasize my high forehead (which actually is so high that it goes to the back...

    My first fedora - and a question about fit

    My first real hat came in the mail today. It's a Pallone by Tesi of Italy that I got from John Helmer Haberdasher in Portland OR. It has a nice grayish taupe color and very soft felt. I think it's great looking, though I don't know about the finer points of a quality hat. It came with an open...

    Can anyone tell me what color this Akubra Stylemaster is?

    This seems to be the most common image used on all the Akubra hat sites, but it looks to be a different color from the Stylemaster hats that I've seen posted here. Thanks

    How do you break in a new hat?

    I've heard of people wetting down their hat and then wearing it while it dries. Is that something that was only done in old movies? What about fur felt? How do you get it to have that "lived in" feel?

    Kevin Costner's hat in the Untouchables

    I've seen other threads that tell who made the hat, etc., but I'm wondering what currently available production hat most closely resembles Costner's hat? Brim and crown dimensions, color, style of bash, you know. I know about the custom hat makers, but I'm looking for something a little more...

    Good Lord! What has happened to me???

    I went to the library today and checked out a bunch of movies based solely on their "hat appeal." Vertigo, The Man Who Wasn't There, The Untouchables, Miller's Crossing, etc. I used to be normal. :confused:

    Has the state of your hair influenced your hat wearing?

    Do any of you wear hats because of lack of hair, either because of vanity or to ward off the effects of the sun? Or is fashion/image your primary reason?
