Another new person dumb question

[cooper]

Whats the difference between a fedora and an adventurer or "Indiana Jones" hat? Just brim size? Without the two side by side, the one Jones used looks like a fedora.

 

[Doctor Strange]

The Indy hat IS a fedora. Why would you think otherwise? It's an unusually wide-brimmed and high-crowned (and untapered-crowned) fedora, but still within the parameters of typical 1930s hats.

(BTW, love your avatar - "Nightmare at 20,000 Feet"!)

Thanks,I sortof knew it was,but on a couple of hat sites they call them different names.

 

[Not-Bogart13]

I guess "adventurer" could be considered a model name of sorts. Many sites have a hat with that or a similar name to draw a certain customer type. This habit will cause a crossover of fedoras that look sort of like Indy's and Outback hats (wide-brimmed, Digging for the Truth types).
A note of imporatance, though... if you have a specific interest in the Indiana Jones style, as seen in the films; ask us - we know the best ones! :fedora:
Welcome aboard!

Bailey has a hat called the Adventurer which is identical to the "official" Indy hat that DP sells. They were obviously made in the same factory.

PS: The wool Indy 551 by DP will start using a real leather sweat instead of what they used in the past. They'll probably start shipping it as soon as they run out of the current stock.

The Firehole and Morgan are both western styles. They're very popular because they're western without being too cowboy and not a stiff 4" brim.

You'll have to take a drive up and visit us sometime.

This is a nice article. http://www.getahaton.com/pr_4-06.php
I have steered people to this site when they ask about hats, although I purchased my latest one from another Lounge vendor The Fedora Store.
