I wonder if Harrison’s injury caused a significant enough delay that the hats had to change?

Philip Hinchcliffe?

;) ^This! All of it. I like the hat, but that lack of any appreciable contrast between the hat and the ribbon is really making me twitchy. And while the video is nice, the lighting is not great. Really just need to see this fedora in various lighting scenarios to get a feel for the way the thing rea...

I would LOVE to see very good, high resolution pics of a HJ DOD fedora next to a known HJ (Either sable or the new dark sable) in natural daylight, or even multiple lighting conditions. I still can’t really tell if I like it or not, and it’s kinda driving me nuts.

A darker hat in Nutmeg with a lighter color Sable ribbon. Almost a “Reverse Indy” Fedora. Check out this new HJ video with Michelle, and a bunch of familiar faces. Fascinating, and worth a watch: https://youtu.be/7T53d3DDmkw

After having ordered a Berlin shirt last night, and Cairo pants a few minutes ago - I’m excited and can’t wait to do my first review of new pieces in years!

It's a sticky label applied to the liner. It's how HJ did it after the days of the unicorn logo. It's legit. Mine has the same oval.

John

And so with that sorted, who's up for another guess?

Thanks W! A Lee Keppler lid...I never thought of that. Ok, the color is throwing some people so I think more pictures are warranted. Reminder: John, Steve and Marc make their hats just a tiny bit darker (so as to lighten with age and use, so some might have forgotten but the color of the fedora at t...

Lose interest? Did you just see size of the tumbleweed that just rolled between us? It was as big as a house. Further, if there's anybody left 'round these parts who remember me, they know that I don't trifle with Indy Fedoras. If I post something and invite people to guess what it is it's with a go...

Johnny Fedora

Northwest or Garrison?

Not with THAT ribbon.

The picture might be messing with the color but it's the same as a vintage HJ Indy.

Keep guessing folks...

John

Johnny Fedora

Optimo? LOL...no...LOL

Johnny

Johnny Fedora

It's actually an Indy 4, but the make is a mystery. Any guesses?

Johnny

Johnny Fedora

It's been a while, but thought I'd pop in here and show off my new Indy lid. http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y126/AshGL1914/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zps6e45f452.jpg What does everybody think? Note: it's a selfie so there's a bit of parallax distortion but it's still a serviceable look at a fantastic ...

Johnny Fedora

What are you doing for the ribbon?
Is it Steve and John's authentic ribbon, or something else?

Johnny

Johnny Fedora

Untill you someday have to reblock mine!

Johnny Fedora

AWESOME LID CANYON!!!! And for only a $50 gift cirtificate! John has always been a top notch guy though!

Looks awesome on you to boot! Congrats!

Will SOMEBODY please, for the love of God, cast Mitch as Indy so we can go ahead and make some new movies? Come on!

Hey John, what about a brown or tan, thin bag (maybe canvas) with a Penman logo on one side that one could fold up and store in the pocket of a jacket or gas mask bag? Large enough to store a fedora in, and you could either place it under your chair, or hang it on the back. What do you think? Johnny

Johnny Fedora

Nor mine. I just wanted to.discuss the situation.

Not the guy on "Jersey Shore"

Johnny

Johnny Fedora

Just when I thought I was going to get some more sleep... I think we're beyond the original felt comparison here, and this is as good a time as any to discuss what I and others feel is a change in the way discussions are handled around here. Mark, I may not have a really high post count, but you hav...

Johnny Fedora

Wow. Thanks Dave. :TOH: I don't know what to say. You've said it so well. And I feel the same way. As far as post holiday lull...its nearly April. What holiday are we talking here? Presidents Day? I would NEVER presume to speak for Steve and I don't here except to say that were I on my computer (not...

Johnny Fedora

Wow...I can't even believe I'm posting in this thread again but here goes nothing... I am overjoyed that Dude loves his DP hat! Truly. That's awesome. :TOH: I had one as well and I still do. I was never slamming dude's lid. I did answer a direct claim that it could stand up in quality to an Adventur...

Johnny Fedora

I'm done.
You go stand in the rain in your beaver Dorfman Pacific, and I'll go stand in the rain in my beaver Penman and then we'll see who's all wet.

Cheers!
Johnny

Johnny Fedora

Jlee, The beaver DP talked about in this thread retail for more than My hats, Steve's and almost as much as Marcs. This hat retails for $500 & Steves hats are currently priced at $650. ADVENTUREBILT HENRY: $290.00 PENMAN CUSTOM INDY: $425.00 for pure beaver or $325.00 for pure rabbit ADVENTUREB...

Johnny Fedora

Again, if you like your hat that's awesome. :clap: I owned and wore a Dorfman hat very much like that one for years before receving my Mags HJ. I still have it, and I won't part with it. I was only addressing the idea that it was "on par with a Penman or Adventurebilt", that's all. Cheers!...

Johnny Fedora

Too true, I didn't mean to trash Bats at all, I was only responding to the notion that ANY Dorfman Pacific hat could stand toe to toe with an Adventurebilt, or Penman hat. That's all. This is afterall the section of the board where issues like this are debated, and it was an intresting idea that I w...

Johnny Fedora

Pics? :-k And while I'm sure that having the ribbon replaced by Optimo helps, it's still just swapping one inaccurate ribbon for another. Sorry, but Optimo's ribbon gives off the wrong shine (from being made of a diffrent material), is the wrong color, and somethimes even photographs as purple for s...

Johnny Fedora

I have actualy seen one of these, and where shall I begin? The felt is in no way comparable to the felt that John, Marc, and Steve use. It may be 100% beaver but not all beavers are built the same it would seem. While the crown might be abit higher than a standard DP Indy Hat, the crown is still too...

Johnny Fedora

Bruce Wayne wrote:I have one & it is on par with a Penman or Adventurebilt. The way it is creased from the factory along with the crown height (5 1/4 inches) makes it perfect for a ToD fedora.

In NO WAY is THAT hat even remotely like a Penman or Advenurebilt.

The mentioned store of 'Worth and Worth' was one of the VERY first stores we dealt with regarding obtaining more correct Indy style fedora's, by the way. They had one called the 'Allegro' that was quite popular in the mid 90's many were experimenting with at the time. Regard! Michaelson I thought I...

Johnny Fedora

Ok Steve, I've been very understanding...but the last update to this was back in November. We need to see this awesome hat!!!
Anyway, hope you had a great Christmas and New Years my friend, now make with the pics!

Johnny

Johnny Fedora

Mine is still going strong

, though I do need to stop procrastinating and ship that lid off to John for the reblock he's been wanting me to get.

Cheers!
Johnny

Johnny Fedora

Sooooo...PICTURES!?!?!?! I'm dieing to see this hat Steve!

Johnny

Johnny Fedora

Wow!

That is one awesome looking hat. And such a cool color to boot.
I reallllly need a hat made on this block. I just love the results!

Cheers!
Johnny

Johnny Fedora

ahem...Peter O'Toole still lives.

Johnny

Johnny Fedora

WOW!

That's a perfect jacket you've got there John! Not only does it look the part but it looks super soft and comfy to boot.

Johnny

Johnny Fedora

Wow!
Thank you Michaelson, and Thanks Mike!
Little Portia or Abner will be our first kid.

Dang it Steve...just when I thought I was safely lurking about I have to read about this piece of awesomeness! It goes without saying of course that I can't wait to see pictures of the new lid! http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y126/AshGL1914/NewJohnny.png http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y126/AshGL1...

I'm so happy the this thread/hat was bumped as I would never have seen it otherwise. Fedora, Bravo sir :clap: ! That is an absolutly beautiful hat. Mila has on occasion lamented that I rarely ever venture out from under my Indy hat and into a diffrent style or color. Which is true...I'm a creature o...

Johnny Fedora

A Henry would be fun...but a custom hat is a CUSTOM HAT.

All things being equal, I would chose a PENMAN over a Henry.
