Well... I can understand that. It can take me that long to get my hair style right too, somedays.
It's something that either you make it or break it.

Re: Bathrobe/Smoking jacket

I grew up watching lots of those Hollywood classic movies and always admired the way people dressed in the 30's and 40's and 50's. Every item of clothing had a time and place for it. The sheer glamour just with a man's smoking or bath robe just looks so suave. I 'll never understand why men stopped ...

Re: Wife modeling Adventurebilt CS

Thank you, Beaverlid. I guess I'm kind of like _, in that I'm thankful for her, too, and amazed that she would be with me. To me, she is a one of a kind, the perfect woman for me.

Re: How to make a hat fit a little tighter

There's half the bassists in the world for you...guys who couldn't make it as guitarists. :rolling: Dave I'm assuming you mean John Taylor(whom I had ...

Re: How to make a hat fit a little tighter

Huh..well there you go..I did not know that it is a Fedora after all... :[ So, Fedora's can range in size, in particular with the rims?

Re: How to make a hat fit a little tighter

Depends on how much room you have there, but perspiration and heat, as body heat escapes through the top of your head, will cause the leather hat band to shrink. Similiar to Michael, this Henry was a bit loose, but now fits perfectly with use. Do some yard work around the house in it, work up a swe...
