    Fortune & Glory Coalition {Adventurebilt}

    Let's not even mention "Indy's" gas mask bag that didn't yet exist in the year when the movie was set... :rolleyes:

    Fortune & Glory Coalition {Adventurebilt}

    I agree with Art. The HJ "Poet" was a real style. "Indy" is NOW a style. :D

    Fortune & Glory Coalition {Adventurebilt}

    Mine is on the way in a few months - for now, just the Akubra! Actually, I went a little outside the norm and ordered in Gray with a black band. (as in the one on the right).

    Hat Storage Advice

    Yep... This is one I struggle with almost daily. I usually end up keeping my hat on a (hopefully) free seat at the table. There are times when I go in to a place that I know has no place to put my hat. I end up leaving it in the car (NOT on the dashboard!); however, that kind of...

    Indy - non Indy poll

    It has nothing to do with Indy. Although I do have a Federation with an "Indy bash" (just because I think it looks nice).

    If you could own just one Akubra, what would it be?

    I was planning on www.hatsdirect.com. Is there anyone else?

    If you could own just one Akubra, what would it be?

    I heard the same exact thing with regards to the Federation (that it fits/runs a tad larger than normal). I'm OK with that. The "lower crown" feel just sealed the deal... I WANT ONE NOW!! :eusa_clap

    The Dumbest Comment I Ever Heard

    I usually get 99% favorable compliments, however, once - one of my employees was walking out of work behind me (I was actually wearing my Art Fawcett Sportaire as opposed to an "Indy hat," but) and said (in a perfect movie accent): "No time for love, Dr. Jones!" Had he not done it so...

    Anti Hat bias

    The temperature scanners are a reality, folks... While I won't claim to know how the technology works, I do know that it came in to "fashion" after the SARS scares... Here in the Detroit area, I ALWAYS remove my hat when going into restaurants, etc. Then, as I'm eating, I look around and am...

    If you could own just one Akubra, what would it be?

    Hi am looking VERY seriously at the charcoal Banjo Peterson. I've been wanting to check out their Heritage felt and since I already have a Federation (regular) with a gray Adventurebilt on the way - it would seem a bit redundant... The normal Fed fights for time on my noggin with the jem...

    1st attempt at making a thin ribbon...

    Good for you! Nice work, however I have to give you even MORE credit for having the guts to attempt this... Not me... NO way!:confused:

    How often do you wear your hat?

    Every day here as well. Sometimes even in the house, also... :fing28:

    Have a hat that will fit a 24" / 60cm-61cm head that you don't want?

    I have two - both with approx. 2" brims. One is a 1969 dark brown Mallory and the other is a sandstone colored Dobbs with a wide ribbon. The Dobbs is listed as a 7 1/2 (which I am) but is EASILY a 7 5/8. The Mallory is a 7 5/8 and true to size. Both are in very nice shape, although not...

    Beaver felt hat from Vintage Silhouettes

    Another wonderful hat from Art. It really "fits" you and looks GREAT! What a nice added bonus that it has a bit of a historical / sentimental value as well.

    Pipes

    Oh - and in case you missed it... Yeah, I smoke a pipe! :D

    Pipes

    It's not hard to keep a pipe dry. You smoke SLOWLY and you smoke quality tobacco (not the heavily cased, aromatic stuff). That goop is a result of the excess moisture caused by the "topping" that gives it the "amaretto, vanilla, caramel, Magilla Gorilla flavoring... :rolleyes: A nice...

    Tilley Fedora

    Is there a way to shape the brim a bit (as in snap the back UP and leave the sides and front alone)? I have a Tilley winter hat and it is GREAT for snowblowing, etc.
