Sorry
Jeez, I didn't mean to get everyone's ire up by suggesting the option that a Cuenca Panama could meet Mark's needs. I have one, it is what it is (a work hat) and I'm #@*! proud of it. It was just what the vendor told me it would be, he was very helpful (I was on the phone with him several...
Welcome to the Lounge, get comfortable and you'll have a good time. I would definitely go with a Panama Hat (with a black silk headband). You'll look great without coming on too strong with the headgear. A Montecristi would be ideal. If for some reason, you are cash challenged (as I am), you can...
Returning Home Clothing
My dad was a WWII vet and I still have his Ike Jacket, wool shirt and trousers. I remember the two buckle combat boots, belt, and tie, but they have been long misplaced. Seems to me I heard him say that that was the
outfit he wore home although the cost came out of some...
Photo How To
Hello Paddy, thanks for the instructions. I've got a couple of things to get out of the way, then I'll upload the pics.
I used to wear his uniform from time to time but I've outgrown :hamburger the size 34 pants and size 42 jacket. It seems the belt and tie are long gone, but...
Hey Guys, my dad was a WWII vet (ETO). I've got some digital photos of his Ike Jacket, shirt, and trousers that I would like to share with y'all (A little East Tennessee flavor there), but I'm not sure how to get them here. I've got a Kodak camera so I can send them to Kodakgalleries.com (used...
I was never much of a "hat guy" until recently. I happened to meet an old acquaintance, he was wearing a sand color blazer and a "ultra" fino Panama Fedora. Something about the dapper look he conveyed stayed with me and I finally figured out it was the hat. It was like completion of a persona...
Hey guys, take a look at my first Goodwill Store find, set me back a whole dollar 35. Looks like it's never been worn (wonder why?) and fits like a glove.
Y'all better say something positive or I'll send my Charles Bronson lookalike over.
(You'll never live that one down Bob, and I do...
One of My Favorites
That was one of my favorites as a kid. What kid could resist those jumping Jeeps and 50 caliber machine guns?
From what I understand the show was based (rather loosely) on actual experiments and attacks using Jeeps with mounted .50's for hit and run tactics to fight...
Does anybody remember the TV series "Combat," which ran from 1962 to 1967? It starred Vic Morrow as Sgt. Saunders. My childhood mind will never forget Sgt. Saunders and his Thompson sub-machine gun. Does anyone remember him ever running out of ammo and having to change magazines?;) Wasn't TV...
My wife (of 29 years) and I are just sitting around. She's studying, (she graduates as a 46 year old nurse in May), and I'm reading, so feeling a little mischevious I said, "Well Hon, I think I'll go check out the Fedora Lounge and see what's going on." She gives me that look that only a married...
Greetings ladies and gents. I never thought I would be a hat person but a few months ago tried n a friends Panama Fedora and loved it. So here I am showing off my wife's Christmas gift to me. I like the fedora so an Indy seemed liked a good place to start. I also received a Panama Cuenca (From...
