The crossbreed wouldn't work for me here in Italy. I've decided to get a classic shape silver belly fedora; it's such an elegant hat that I can't pass it up. It might even be a better looking hat than a high wpsi straw... In any event, my Montecristis can take over when it gets too hot for the felt. ;)

Well, that is the idea, Dr.

Yes,there were several extra INDY hats for each film.At one time it seems that I heard a number but it has slipped my mind.

If you're really interested you might like this....it's more about the last movie (crystal skull) but it's always amazing just how many props they use.

Funny how discussions about fedoras often end up with good old Indy :D

Its not about temperature but humidity. Hot and dry - felt is ok, humid and it just does not stand up to a Montecristi
