The Temple of Lost Hats
Actually, that was an initiate wearing a camouflage hat. This is indicative of the stealth that must be practiced when approaching the Drum of Doom. Once within the Drum of Doom, the initiate must discard his camouflage hat before assuming the Cone of Silence. Or so I've been told. -
movie hats that inspired you...
Elliot's hat has no side dents, just a sloping crease down the center of the crown. The pencil-roll brim doesn't appear to have a bound edge but it's hard to be certain. The Stetson has a much steeper crease, side dents, and a wide binding but the ribbon seems to be nearly the same width as... -

Does anyone wear their hats tipped back?
Of course, actors wearing their hats tipped back in the movies was more about the camera being able to capture their faces than anything else. As for attitude, I think Sinatra nailed it. -

What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?
Great setting, Nigel! Your Campdraft looks good from here. If you're looking for a bit of swoop in the brim, that's relatively easy to accomplish. What is that terrific vest that you're wearing? BTW, I'm reading All the Colors of Darkness by Peter Robinson. It's a Detective [Alan]... -
Copying a Custom????
IMHO this is a personal decision as far as ethics are concerned I have two custom hats created by Art based on a vintage production hat, a Templeform by Style Park, that I sent him. The ribbon treatment on that hat is a bit unusual. Mine are called the Forrestor and one is rust while the other... -

repair sequence question
That does not appear to be a wool felt. It appears to be a fur felt with a velour finish. It either has an overwelt or a mode edge on the brim (it's hard to see in the pictures). The bow on the ribbon looks sweet as it is. It's your hat but I'm not sure that's the one to practice on... -
