Problems with sweatband

Hey guys, a few months ago I got a raiders style advintage Harrison. It’s a really nice hat and I really like it, however, a nasty crease devolved in it which makes at times extremely uncomfortable to wear, which is a shame because it used to be so comfortable I would forget that I was wearing it! A...

Penman Everyman

I'm planning on getting a nicer hat when my head stops growing, which won't be super long, and the Everyman seems like a smart choice. How durable are these hats? Can they take a beating of any kind or not?

Re: Question

Something that hasn't been said, but is worth mentioning, consider your use for this hat. Is a daily wear or do you costume a couple of times a year? 99% of the population don't see the difference between the DP and a screen used fedora so if you'll be costuming, it may not be worth the added inves...

Re: Question

Hi guys! Newbie here, i am wondering if there are any ways to make my dorfman more screen accurate? :TOH: Hi, Indiana augustus -- Any luck re-shaping your Dorfman? :-k If you're not satisfied, or you're ready to move up to a better and more accurate hat, first: Don't spend more than you can comfort...

Re: Question

Since you have the fur felt, you could try tighten the pinch a bit. I don't recommend the Raiders razor pinch, think LC or TOD. Just boil some water (in a kettle if you have it). When the steam is strong, hold the pinch area in the steam and reshape by hand slowly. Not too close, don't burn your ha...

Re: Question

Welcome Indiana augustus! The problem is, with exception to the fact that it is a brown fedora (and the Indiana Jones logo), the entire shape of the hat is really so far off from the real hats in the films. Can you post a pic? Depending on if the top is a center dent or teardrop will affect how you...

I have the fur one. Arguably the nicest of the officially listened ones out there.
