Nudie Suit

Why should ’60s Nashville stars have all the fun? Found this original suit on eBay. Sadly, the pants are much too short. Definitely not an all-the-time thing, but it puts a smile on my face to drag it out from time to time.

Adventurebilt Fedora

Another Adventurebilt, this one by Steve Delk. I wore this one a whole bunch, through Halifax rain, sleet and snow. I didn’t baby it the way I did the Deluxe- the gray suited me and my wardrobe much better. But surprisingly, after wearing it outside for a while, the brim flange got funny and the crown tapered a whole bunch. It just didn’t hold up the way I would have expected it to. I accidentally left it in a cabin in Maine on a road trip. A friend was able to retrieve it, but I took it somehow as a sign and passed it on to someone who hopefully has made gentler use of it than I did, and I switched back to vintage hats exclusively.
