Black Sheep Hat Works
It's here! The inspiration for this hat was a good long search through many threads of the Fedora Lounge. The primary influence is Alan's wonderful Stetson Star from the Pre 1940's Stetson Dress hats thread. I asked Bob to also include his "Halo +1" edge treatment, for that special Black... -
Custom homburg
I do like the look of Drexlers....but my first answer is gonna be Bob at Black Sheep hatworks. IMHO, he has the best brim curls. -

Bob at Black Sheep sent me some teaser shots of my hat. Now I'm really excited! It's going to be a heather charcoal grey felt, based on a pre war Stetson that belongs to Alan, here on the lounge. -

Indy's Hat
That's because the Fed IV was designed with an eye for the Crystal Skull hat. -
Indy's Hat
"The" hat was a Herbert Johnson "Poet" model, which was trimmed to order by a man named Richard Swales. The block in use now is very probably not the same as the original hat. Check out indygear.com for more than you ever thought you needed to know about the Indy hats. -
The hats of our fathers
Gotta love that duct tape sweat. The corrugation in front looks an awful lot like the kind Borsalino put in their hats. Not great pictures of mine: -
The BORSALINO BROTHERHOOD
+1 on Mike's sage advice. Bob is quite the hatter extraordinaire.
