    Justified FX Hat

    I’ve never tried his hats!

    Justified FX Hat

    The fedora wasn’t Raylan’s hat; it was Boon’s hat (and made by Nick Fouquet).

    ‘Oppenheimer’ is a masterpiece

    My understanding is it’s a quite existential film that’s quite critical of the same subculture that’s being used to market it. In TFL news, Oppenheimer’s hat was made by Baron.

    Aero 1920s Work Coat Collar...

    The 42 has the same PTP as my Ridley, which is why I was thinking I want to go up a size (Like you, I also want to wear it as a coat, for a level of formality above a leather or Barbour but lower than my wool overcoats.) We’re similarly sized, so I think measurements similar to yours could work...

    Aero 1920s Work Coat Collar...

    This was my thinking. By widen size you mean one size wider but the length of your regular size, right? I think because I am an inch or so taller than Aero's standard assumption, a full size up I.e. both wider and longer (with slightly shortened sleeves) could work. Speaking of sleeves, this...

    Aero 1920s Work Coat Collar...

    Helpful! Thank you! I think another thing I have to grapple with is that what used to be my one-size up for Premier is actually my new base size, over the past year, lol. I did send Aero chest measurements of other similar coats I have so hopefully that’ll help us figure it out.

    Aero 1920s Work Coat Collar...

    I’m deciding between my usual one-size-up Premier sizing or going one size further than that.

    Justified FX Hat

    Baron hats are really nice in my opinion. And I’m not sure what your point is. This is a widespread practice in props, using a cheaper item for what gets destroyed I mean.

    ‘Oppenheimer’ is a masterpiece

    My understanding is that Barbie is an auteur film dressed up in commercial garb, so it might be a better watch than you fear. I haven't gone yet, but mean to. Probably after a third viewing of Oppenheimer though…

    ‘Oppenheimer’ is a masterpiece

    If you can make it to Missisauga (Cineplex Cinemas Mississauga) or Toronto (Cineplex Cinemas Varsity) you can catch 2 of the only 30 true IMAX film screenings of the film in the world. I'd highly recommend it, even if it's a second viewing. Been recommending this to Ontario based friends! There...

    ‘Oppenheimer’ is a masterpiece

    Since you're in London (I lived right across the way from you), I'd recommend trying to make it down to the BFI IMAX to catch a screening. That's where the director himself tests out his footage, so it's the "ideal" experience so to say.

    Aero 1920s Work Coat Collar...

    Troy blanket is an extremely appealing option especially with its western look, but I want this jacket to be a notch more dressy than my cross zips and half-belts, so I think a solid melton might suit the part best for that use. Should be similar thickness wise though I’d think.

    Aero 1920s Work Coat Collar...

    I’m in the process for one of these. Thinking about whether I want to go up an inch from my Ridley pit-to-pit (so one size up overall)–I think in practice it might be less than an inch because that has a thin tartan lining whereas this has melton wool.

    Justified FX Hat

    The costume designer said herself that they used Stetsons sometimes as props, but they weren't Raylan's hat per se, just disposable parts. Raylan's hat was always a Baron, except for the fedora at the very end of the series.

    Justified FX Hat

    Yes, that was used as a throwaway prop. Timothy Olyphant was a longtime customer of Baron in his personal life long before Justified.

    Justified FX Hat

    No, that same guy then made another video after being corrected by the costume designer. It's in this thread. YouTube clothes people are always clueless anyway.

    Legendary USA Black Stallion is Back

    Thank you for sharing. I'm glad I cancelled.

    ‘Oppenheimer’ is a masterpiece

    I was surprised to see that there isn’t another thread about the film, considering it is so firmly ‘Golden Age’ in its setting. I think this is Nolan’s best work from a filmmaking perspective, and the costuming is standout, from tailoring to outerwear to, of course, Oppenheimer’s iconic hat. I...

    Wested vs us wings Indy jackets

    Wested will be more screen-accurate, US Wings will be a more rugged jacket (made by Schott and with less delicate leathers). The length of the US Wings keeps me from getting it… but on the other hand, it's there for a reason. (The jacket was made for the stuntmen who do a live Indiana Jones...

    Five Stars Leathers: remake of a 30's "Aviator's" style Jacket

    On this point, tailoring and machining are respected skilled trade professions in the Subcontinent. Five Star's operation seems to be a high end one in that sense.
