Saw that today. It seems like a movement of hat-resurgence is slowly growing, guys, there's hope for us yet.

The price keeps going up because the US dollar is quickly becoming worthless. I doubt costs are really skyrocketing--anyone know if the AU price has been relatively stable compared to the shooting up of the US dollar price?

Question on measuring--I know I've always been told, like you said, measure where you want the hat to sit, but where is the ideal place to set the hat?

I posted earlier in this thread but I haven't had the time to order a Fed and figure out how to bash and such. Is there an absolute guide (thread) on how to order the right size hat, bash it, etc. for noobs? The last post on this thread seems useful, but there are no pictures: http://www.indygear.co...

I'm just going to ask a little question here since people are helping and it's sort of relevant:

Why would I buy a Fed Deluxe over a Fed, other than the darker color?

(I'm soon to buy my first hat and would like to know that).

I was thinking about geting a JPD Rabbit to tie me over. Should i get a Federation instead? Does the Federation or the Fed Deluxe come with a Raiders block? How SA is the Ribbon? What color should is the best? I'd like to know as well, I'm about to buy a Fed and I am unsure of which is preferable (...

(Hi I'm new)

Let me pose a bizzare scenario here: Let's say oil runs out tomorrow and the world goes into anarchy, dictator-warlords arise and I run into the hills to hide. I want an Indiana Jones style hat. What is going to last outside the longest in that situation?
