Also noteworthy in Steve's case; He frequently posts on COW if something causes a serious delay, and will respond to e-mails that indicate urgency in the subject line. If JImmy got into those habits, it would help him greatly.
I think that any movie that enjoys significant success can start (or restart) fashion trends. But Indy did NOT bring back the fedora. There was a small blip of interest in the 80's because of it, but that's it.
However, since Raiders, the accessibility of movies old and new has changed. We...
I wear my hats however they feel right. The result tends to look right, so I must be onto something.
The best way to wear a hat, I find, is to allow your own instincts and the hat itself to find where it belongs. Small differences in the hat style, measurements, and even the...
This sort of thing happens with Jimmy from time to time. He has a rocky communication records, usually without any explanation. I thought things had finally gotten better, but I guess there are still issues. You won't be the first to cancel an order, Neil.
Well, if wool is the only thing within your budget, there is a wool version of the Christy's Adventurer. I recommend it because the shape and measurements will be closest to that era. If you can afford it, the fur felt version is supposedly inexpensive, and would be a good starter budget hat...
Rabbit felt Indy. I did the bashing.

JP makes a nice hat, but it comes with a waiting period. Still, you'll get the same or better quality compared to a Stetson. Better in my opinion.
Also, if you can afford his Winchester rabbit felt, it is better than the one on sale, and comes in many colors. The Curry is brown only. It...
Here's a thought; mail a print-out to the store with the price circled in marker. No return address, no note, no signature. The message will be understood. :D
Considering everything you said, start with a Stetson. The models that Spats listed are good, and also the Temple. You can probably find one on that most famous of auction sites. If not, look up Quality Hats in a google search. They have pretty good prices, and fast service. Sometimes the...
Soft thin felt does not necessarily mean it's foldaway. It's probably a summer-weight felt of something like that. As it is of considerable vintage, I wouldn't chance it. You shouldn't need to baby it, but be kind. ;)
Normally, I'm an advocate for any excuse to wear a fedora, but I have to make an exception here. Even before I read your own thought about it, I was thinking a crusher would be perfect. Maybe get it dirty so it looks as crusty as the personality it's supposed to go with.
Besides, with the...
Unusual looking hat. Nice to see something different. :cheers1:
I agree with Carter. Let your mood decide. Just make sure you always store it with the brim up to keep the shape.
