    It's beautiful felt. I asked for this one to be bashed to a 4.25" front height unlike the 4.5-4.75" that is more common for Indy hats. It looks far better with my face shape than a taller hat I think

    Thanks. He's talking about Steele and Jones Herbert Johnson project. It's designed to be a close copy of a 1980 (raiders of the lost Ark era) HJ, right down to the liner

    DJH, it's a great hat. I've had quite a few indy hats over the years and this is my favourite. The only thing that's 'wrong' is the ribbon is a little too brown compared to the correct colour. It's only apparent if you stick it side by side with my AB. The felt colour is lovely. Has a real...

    I guess he's one of those guys who doesn't like having uncomfortable conversations? I don't agree with his business decisions but he's an honest guy. His health situation is just dreadful to hear and it makes me glad that we don't have that ruinous system of 'care' here.

    DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects

    Yes, it mentioned this on the BBC. I think his mother was Jons mothers sister? Is it only Ian Lavinder left from Dads Army now??

    I ordered from Steve a couple of years ago. He said six weeks and I think I had it in seven. Fingers crossed for you. The Fed IV is a very tough hat and as suggested above you should get it in three weeks. Personally in the conditions you're talking about I'd go for a fed IV rather than...

    Found this homberg on a market stall a few weeks back. Not sure on the date? Exterior is in fine condition, the lining is a bit tatty but otherwise it's great

    The other issue is that people ordering a hat from Steve probably want a hat made by Steve... not his assistant

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    I watched We're no Angels with Bogart earlier this week. Bizarrely I've never seen this before on tv despite being a Bogart fan. What a great movie! Odd but really very funny. Peter Ustinov was superb in it.
