    Shoelaces

    I have an old set of White's boots w/ flat waxed laces. Love the boots and have had them for years but never have liked the waxed flat lace. It's not an issue of them coming untied (or knotting) it's that the waxed flats don't seem to seat into a speed lace as well as other designs. I know...

    Car coats - are they out of fashion now?!

    Dammit, Janet! It's a coat; not a jacket! If there were an aspect that merits mention it would be that the early car coats were looong. If you've ever owned one of the longer versions you know that they're often filthy along the hem as a coat of that length scrapes around on the floorboard as...

    Car coats - are they out of fashion now?!

    Thank you, Sir! At close to ten pounds she's a big girl but that's noticeable only when you initially put it on or as you're looking for a place to put it once you've taken it off. While worn the weight disappears and it makes me feel like I'm wearing a coat of armor. The horse hide is only...

    Car coats - are they out of fashion now?!

    I've been hesitant to post my version of a car coat in that the definition of the term has been a wildly moving target for a long time. In my view a car coat covers mien heinder and beyond that doesn't have a whole lot of distinguishing characteristics. Last year I bought a Lost Worlds leather...

    Conspicuous and striking w/out being gaudy. Very nicely done.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    Thanks for sharing. What are those big white discs that look a little like onions but likely aren't?

    Lost Worlds Leather Pea / Shearling Collar

    Enabler! ...and this will happen. Thanks for the boost. I think it will be removable so I can wear the jacket more often. Thanks, Edward.

    Lost Worlds Leather Pea / Shearling Collar

    I've shortened the sleeve length a hair and they turned out perfectly. I've had internal knit cuffs installed and they turned out perfectly. I can't quite get it out of my head that this jacket would look even cooler w/ a roughly 1" thick shearling collar. ...but I've done a bunch of things...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    Are you by chance sporting a booger, Sir? No harm no foul amongst family. Perhaps the backside of that pocket triangle might come to the rescue? Desperate times / desperate measures and all.

    Ask a question, get an answer

    In three languages the label states "100% hair" however, nowhere does it state "Made in Europe". Something about Italia, sure... but not Europe.

    I've got a couple of Borsalinos that have a really REALLY similar statement sewn just beneath the size label at the rear of the sweat. I have one on now.

    Can someone please explain to me why I have to start all over every time I try to log in?

    Is it possible that 'a long time back' you restarted your computer and cleared your cookies.? The next time you logged in you may not have clicked the 'remember me' check box. Sound like that might have been it? The typical ten year old kid can sort this stuff quick. Somebody fetch this...

    If there isn’t a King’s Umbrella hat box in here the thread is sorely lacking.

    A Little Journey to the Home of John B. Stetson by Elbert Hubbard 1911

    Interesting. Some of the graphic art in that book was clearly either drafted by or heavily influenced by Frank Lloyd Wright. This (right) page nearly looks torn from one of his window designs of the time.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    A newly married couple and an older couple met out and about one evening. The younger man asked the older what the secret was to a long and successful marriage. The old guy said "when we were married we decided that from that point forward she would make all the day to day decisions and I'd...
