A new item has been added to my wardrobe! And since there are a certain twisted individuals who will want to see it, I'll post it respectably hidden behind a cut.

Chump in a Chapeau

It's a new grey fedora! (Dull surprise!)

The previous one has been transferred to the tender care of [livejournal.com profile] mammallamadevil, whom I hope will get much enjoyment from it.

The new one isn't quite as dressy as I thought it was going to be, although it's kind of hard to tell from the photograph. But it's still quite a nice hat, and I expect to get a lot of mileage out of it.

(Note to Kerry: Yes, I will post that "Fedora Care Primer" you asked for now ... probably this weekend.)

Thanks! But the tie is actually only red at the neck. The bottom looks like this. (http://www.crazyhatsandties.com/42592.html) ;)

It actually goes with that particular shirt perfectly.

What brand? What felt material is it made of?? I have a few classic fedoras in my collection that I have gotten over the year. Unfortunately with moving they have sort of gotta out of shape.

Scala Wool Felt Fedora New Yorker (http://www.hartfordyork.com/ShowView/product/182/15), as sold by Hartford York. :)

If you're interested in my hat history at all, you can read more than you want to know here (http://www.talkaboutcomics.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=34237). ;)

That is a very nice hat.

I've been looking for a while for a nice black fedora. (been considering an Australian Akubra for a while). I'm definately going to bookmark this and come back to it!

Next FC, take an extra day or so. Go up to San Francisco and visit Siegel's Clothing Superstore (http://www.zootsuitstore.com/). They're a classic menswear shop, and have a good hat selection.

I like the jump jive bop hat....

Yay for new fedoras...after all, the Gneech without one is naked!

LOL! The new one looks really nice, grey is a good color for you, John!

Watch...Kerry will still steal it, even though she has her own now. *grin*
