Tri-Corner and Panama Hats

[SicEmBaylor]

Can anyone point me to a good place to buy a tri-corner and panama hat?
I'm in the market for both, and I don't want some cheap *** costume ****.

I had a prof recommend a pretty good place for Panama hats, but I can't find a good tri-corner dealer.

go to 1800's-r-us. That is where I do all my "Ben Franklin impersonation" shopping

Don't forget the powdered wig you colonial fruit.

You're a century or so off, but I can't find that URL. That's not a legitimate site is it?

And yeah, a powdered wig would actually make it even more awesome.

I always like the idea of wearing knickerbockers.

The only problem with the hats from those links is that they aren't really authentic. I want an authentic reproduction. Something of good quality.

At some point your parents will tire of paying for your foolishness.

yes, it is fake:D

and if we are talking about old fashion statements:

kilt>knickerbockers

if it were socially acceptable, I would wear one of those bad boys all the time

I used to wear knickerbockers in my War of Northern Aggression re-enacting and such. I loved knickerbockers.

Anyway, I think walking around campus with a tri-corner on would be the schizznit.

You're assuming of course that they aren't just as bad as I am.

Pretty much a tricorn. You can also buy a Baldric. Just don't listen to his cunning plans.

Don't they sell those in Branson. Sounds like something old people wear

You've given up on dating women on campus this year haven't you amigo? ;)

By the way.. Nordstroms has some pretty good Panamas/straw hats. You will pay in excess of $100 for them though.

Heh. They're actually made in Ecuador



For the tri-corner, how about Colonial Williamsburg? I'm sure they have some extras lying around somewhere. They might make you churn butter for one though. ;)

Inquire within -- but even Meyer prob'ly doesn't have a tricorner. Take the costume shop advice
