Dalexs has a point, guys. Just think about what happened to all those poor 80s kids after they first saw Marion in that torn wedding dress and then Willie Scott baring her midriff. Then spare a thought for those unfortunate souls who also bore witness to Princess Leia's slave girl outfit. That's ri...

ABSOLUTELLY GORGEOUS!!!

(Not you man, the hat! The hat!

)

Fink

I bet those boots might be fairly priced as any Todd’s product, but I wonder if they will hold real life outdoor usage, but if Todd says they might survive this, I’m on!

Fink

...is either that, or the gloves brand is “LARGE”!

Great catch!

Fink

So I guess it shouldn’t be a problem, no one can simply transfer money with out your authorization with only your PayPal public details. Worst that can happen is that you deny receiving the items so they will be sent back to the origin if Todd fails to stop them on time. What still bugs me is why he...

Fink

That’s why you should always use PayPal for those kinds of transactions! :idea:

Fink

It has beaver in the felt, so it will be a notch above. This is exactly what I believe Chewie, but still I’m wondering: Akubra claims that the Fed IV Deluxe is made from a very selected fur from a specific part from the rabbit (I really don’t want to know what part that is), the Henry is a blend, b...

Great hat and great chose! I have mine and I’m really happy with it!

MustangLoverMex on the other side is for his first Indy hat, so...

Fink

So, for me anyway, the Henry is about $63 more than a fed deluxe. That was MustangLoverMex´s calculation that he did for me half an hour ago... A Penman Hat is $250.00 (For COW members) + shipping, but it’s a pure beaver. But hey, you haven’t shared which one would be your personal choice! (Let’s s...

Fink

take my advice with a grain of fuller's earth OK, that’s hilarious! You really brought a good laugh to me tonight! :lol: Yes, I'm pretty darn sure that the Henry is quite a bit more expensive than the Fed Deluxe. The AB Henry is 165 Euro incl. worldwide shipping for fellow COW'ers. ( http://www.ind...

Fink

We are two guys ( MustangLoverMex and me) thinking to buy our hats together on a relatively limited budget, under this budget limitation basis what hat you would go for? Both are about the same price, right? But which model is better? Which one do you think will last longer? Which one is more comfor...

Fink

Wow! Were did you get that one?!?!? (JP Amazon?) Please tell us! I have been trying to get one since this thread begun for collector purposes!

Fink

I actually bought the MK VII bag, holster, whip holder, belt, and headpiece of The Staff of Ra from this seller before this shirt thing I found inappropriate too. Before the shirt, this is what I think about the seller and his products: This guy is a very serious seller; everything I have bought fro...

Fink

Great tip, Steve! I might actually buy from this seller. But you know, it might be better if you had something to do with this seller since COW rules doesn’t allow users to link eBay sales that don’t belong to you, I believe. Still, I believe that promoting any sale indirectly is allowed. P.S. Do yo...

Fink

I don’t think your comment was offensive at all, actually I think it was quite funny because that’s exactly how it looks like! :wink: Well, sort of... my first idea before posting this thread was: “ Indy captured by the Russians and gone mad after steering too much a Crystal Skull after several inte...

Fink

The best of the wools seems to be the Christy's Wool Adventurer, based on word of mouth here. The Christy's Wool is beautiful as a display / costume Indy hat! (Obviously, I have one!) :lol: But still anyone knows this is not a “real” hat, meaning it won’t stand the use and the elements, but quite c...

Fink

Can you share a few pictures of your hat???

Fink

Yeah, I’m thinking a DP would be a perfect candidate to try this style, uh?

Fink

What do you guys think of this hat? What kind of hat is this?!?!?
A simple modified fedora? The brim has been cut or just twisted?

(Image to big to display here)

P.S. Somehow I like it!

Fink

So saying my trilbie isn’t a trilbie a hundred times won’t make it a fedora?

Not that I really have any, right?

Fink

I’m actually one of those who think the Magnoli bag looks absolutely great just as it is! This is why: I had a real shoulder military bag (Not really a MK VII but very close) in the past witch I owned and used for some primary school, high school and must of my university time. At first, this bag wa...

Fink

You can’t! Dorfman Pacific usually puts a plastic ring inside the sewed edge of the brim, your only choices are cutting down the brim manually (a great opportunity to do a dimensional cut), but you need a sharp knife (X-Acto cutter) and a steady hand for a clean cut, or simply unsew the brim edge an...

BendingOak wrote:fink, what is the measurement in inches?

As far as I know: 57 cms equals 22 1/2 inches.

Fink

Can’t post the link, but you can easy find the bid if you search for “Shirt costume for Indiana Jones KOTCS”:

So, what do you think from this picture? (It’s a $35 US shirt, by the way)

Fink

57 according to my measuring tape, but I can fit a 59?!?!?

I really don’t get it; have measured a hundred times my head and always come up with 57, but still 59 on the hat seem to be my real size... :!:

Is it interesting enough?

Where's the EYE option?!?!?

Fink

No kidding: Fedora, do you and Marc have the contract for Indy 5? I have heard the rumors as most have about there being 2 more. I don't put much stock in those rumors. But perhaps they shot 3 at one time? Nah, impossible. If there was to be another film, I am NOT interested. We made the CS fedora. ...

Fink

Tell me about it; have been on a couple of those before! Yay!

My worst thunderstorm (hurricane actually) ever and anywhere was suffered in Florida back in 2001 (Gabrielle), I would rather go down three waterfalls before another hurricane like that one!

Fink

Hopefully my AB, when I recieve it, will look like G-MANN's with time. Dave: I believe you should love and care for your hat, but I also believe loving and caring a hat is WEARING IT! So, I guess that if you really get to love your hat as a friend (John’s words!) and use it all the time everywhere ...

Fink

Why old, ugly, loved hats are always the best looking, beautiful, droolable hats around?

You can’t replicate that, that G-Mann’s AB looks indeed like a REAL old friend, exactly what we all like here...

Fink

BendingOak: I know it’s way too soon for a review about the following topic, but do you believe your hats are going to be weather resistant, crushable resistant and tapering resistant? I know you’re using the “Bulldog” slogan, but it will be nice to hear your impressions on your first prototypes. :...

Fink

Oh, I see! Now I get it, thanks Michaelson!

OK, so I’m definitely waiting for the Deluxe Moonstone, I really want the color and I really want the plus of the Heritage felt.
Any news now on when are we going to be able to order this beauty?

Fink

G-MANN: Don’t listen to these guys, your AB looks quite old and ugly...

But I’m such a great guy I’m willing to change your old AB for a brand new AB, what do you say mate?

Fink

I don’t get it; the Fed IV pictures thread have some beautiful gray (moonstone) fedoras posted from May, but right now it’s just a rumor? (Or a little bit more than a rumor) :?: I’m up to buy a gray Fed IV for my heavy, and I mean heavy outdoor activities while I wait for a regular brown AB, but I w...

Fink

So... no chance to get an original SA KoTCS movie (not promo) shirt?

Fink

You’re kidding me? An AB can take no one, no two, but three water falls without loosing its shape!!!

Fink

Didn’t found this on my search, I swear I’m not being lazy here!
So, do we know who manufactured the Indy shirt for KoTCS?

Fink

I don’t have a clue of what exactly these nominations mean, but a local dealer sells woo felt for hats on the following quality X-Rating:

Merino (economic) 5x
Super Merino 7x
Interlan 10X
Majestic 16x
Silverlan 20x

I double envy you now! :lol: My dad is a totally indoor man since he got married, so I never went out to this kind of trips with him, and I’m single son. He used to be a real climbing, hiking, trekking, etc. maniac, but mom is a M.D. and she’s too nervous for all that kind of stuff, but still she’s ...

Ok...but here is a question for you... I'm going on a 6 day hike on the west coast of BC in two months. The last time I was there, it rained pretty much all the time. What do you suggest I do about letting it dry at night in the tent? Let me see if I get it right; you’re gonna be outdoors on the BC...

C’mon! You really want a “out-of-the-box” *adventure* hat?

Fink

Expect to have Gremlins grow up out of the hat?

Nah, seriously... A real Federation Deluxe should have NO problem at all even if you take it for a swim! So I wouldn’t worry too much about it, but let’s see what the real experts have to say about this

Fink

That’s my girlfriend’s size and she would have a blast with that HJ just as it is! That hat have a real personality of it’s own as it is!

Fink

It looks much better now from a regular DP! But I went a little bit further with mine (My camera died on me so I have no pics available yet): I got rid of the teardrop and worked as much as I could the taper, removed the band and dyed it dark brown chocolate color and dimensionally cut the brim and ...

Woooooow! Nice catch! Please let me now if you ever, ever sell that beauty on eBay!

A few weeks ago I bought some items from Todd’s, I received my order receipt, but I didn't get a shipment notification either, still the package arrived home on time. Todd is an honest seller and a great guy as far as I can tell, and he always answers his messages sooner or latter (or Cissy), just h...

I actually spayed the starch all over the inside and outside, brim and crown without causing any negative effect but an a excessive stiffness (Witch I fixed with a little bit of water), but let’s remember I’m talking about a DP here, I would use a real hat stiffener for any other of my hats!

Fink

I really don’t know! But I could try... I’m not a professional, either must be a perfect job, just enough to find out, what exactly should I try to find out?
