Yours for only $395. Davy Crockett and Jim Bowie eat your heart out.
Part of the new "Prairie Chic" line. Oh Pulease.

Hehe.. I like the model, with her full, pouty lips, and "get this damn thing off me" stare.

In other news, French-Canadian fur traders finally get out of their 120-year sales slump.

N.B. It's Finnish fox fur, not French-Canadian beaver, not American raccoon.

I thought shirts with kottke yellow and zeldman orange stripes would flop too. I hate fashion.

Fur is food!

The real question here is why anyone would pay $400 for a hat that makes you look like Rod Stewart.

A related question is: why would anyone in Great Britain "Create a Californian style grassland garden with a dry river bed" in the name of "Prairie Chic"?

First, I think the hat would look cute on some girls.

Second, it's inconsequential how much it costs, as different people value things differently. At least they're using real fur, not that cheesy fake stuff.
