I wear my fedora occassionally (it's great in the rain and snow) and I've had a leather jacket (not a Wested, but close enough for me) for years now. But I find that I feel really uncomfortable wearing both together in public. It makes me feel like I'm a hero-worshipping teenager again. Now I know it's just me. I'm old enough to handle any taunts and smirks, but still I can't bring myself to wear both items at the same time.

For those of you brave enough to do so, what reaction do you get from the unenlightened public?

Maybe I should start carrying the Webley?
