Any news of hats being delivered to stores?

I'm interested in bucket hats or wide brim hats.

Regarding bucket hats, I have one from the FW13 season (reversible). I am curious, are there various styles of the EG bucket where one version has a wider brim in the front, and a shorter brim in the back? More so, the crown in my particular hat at the back puffs out. When worn it looks like I have my hair tied up and tucked inside the hat.

See photos. You can see that the backside is almost nonexistent in terms of a symmetry. Some reasons I can think of is 1) This is suppose to be a hat for women 2) Error 3) This is intentional and the shorter brim is for collared tops when worn in the winter. I'm still floundering about wearing it outdoors. Seems like an odd shape...almost like a newsboy cap when I was under the impression it would be more like a bucket hat.

Reversible Coat Olive Poplin $720 Khaki Cotton/Linen Coated Canvas $720 Dk. Navy Cotton/Linen Coated Canvas/Herringbone $795 Dk. Navy Cotton/Linen Coated Canvas/Floral Jqd $840
There's that' men's floral jacket! Really like this one too:
Will be getting that one!
need more info on the dk grey heavy brushed hb... - I saw its 100% cotton but how warm would you guys rate the fabric - Is the bedford in this fabric fully, partially or unlined - is the true color closer to gentry's pics (med-dark grey) or closer to LB pics (light-med grey) tia
Most probably partially lined, in the arms only. Here's some more photos of the fabric, seems to be taken in natural light, i'd like to think they reflect the real thing. http://shop.kink-nagoya.com/?pid=78709989

This looks so much better there than in the lookbook for me. This might be the jacket / EG suit for me this season.

I ddin't realise they were cotton, think I just assumed they would be a really soft wool. I think I'd prefer it if they were a mid to light grey (not too light though). Garbstore and Liberty should have their first drops out this weekend. Hopefully I'll have time to nip in to town and they'll have something in this fabric.

This so much. We've had such a great summer this year and its still so warm that I can't get my head around buying flannels and wools while I'm still looking to buy shorts.

Dang. Looks like I won't be getting the reversible anytime soon. Hoping the floral makes it to some sales racks

That's in response to eusticity
