Also take the pit to pit measurement into account, as this will tell you how much actual room you will have in the jacket. If you order a Destiny jacket also keep in mind the shoulders are smaller than on the other Indy jackets. This will directly affect the sleeve length. For example the Destiny in...

Awesome looking jacket, Rob!
The hide is beautiful and the sleeve and body length ratio is fantastic!

Tremolo

Outstanding! The pictures are great, especially the whip and suitcase ones! Love the vibe of these pictures. Without a doubt the aging is definitely a class of its own and I really can’t get over how good the colours of your gear look. It’s not just that they look super accurate but it is also beaut...

Tremolo

That´s fantastic Holt! The jacket looks even more beautiful in natural light! Overall your whole LC set is looking awesome

For me, your fedora also really nails the Castle Brunwald look!

Tremolo

Thanks guys! :TOH: The felt is definitely on the thicker side, just a tad thinner than my older Agnoulita. Right now I am still working a bit on the brim to get the drop and also swoop right. It’s never ending, right? The hat also made me start another rewatch of the series :D Fantastic hat, Tremolo...

Since I started working on a new Young Indiana Jones Diary and began to rewatch the entire series, the urge to once again own a proper YIJ-style fedora began to grow. Ten years or so ago I used to have a pretty nice Christy´s from Hornet Hats that I ordered with a bigger ribbon and 3 Inch brim, but ...

Tremolo

Thank you!! May I ask what hat you are wearing in your profile picture? Perhaps an AdVintage? Whatever it is it looks amazing!! I really love the LC bash, especially early on in the movie. Now I just need to get some LC gear to go with it... It truly is a never ending rabbit trail. Thanks for the k...

Tremolo

Beautiful! Your pictures really make me miss my old Fed IV. The Fed looks great with a LC bash!

Tremolo

Wow that´s an incredible find! The natural wear is also beautiful. I am looking forward to see your next set of pictures together with the Grail Diary!

Tremolo

The jacket looks good on you Rob, congratulations! I really like how well thought out your whole ordering process was. The ratio of sleeve and body length is great. I am also a late converter to lambskin jackets, the Indy jackets I bought many years ago were all cow or horsehide and I can only agree...

Tremolo

Congrats, the jacket looks really good on you and definitely has that fitted look!
The color looks very nice as well.

Tremolo

I can second that, currently they are pretty fast. I ordered a Raiders Hero jacket on May 20th and on June 3rd it was already on its way to me.

Tremolo

When I got my Todd holster I used warm water to mould it to the shape of my resin revolver replica. I think that really helped with the overall look and fit.

I have been using my Magnoli bag since 2011 without problems. A bit less in the last couple of years as I often need to carry a laptop with me. It’s a great size for your normal stuff and I have been enjoying it on vacations, excavations, short trips to the city etc. It faded a bit but after a redye...

Hey ChrisW, here is my Advintage Harrison with an LC bash and while I can´t compare it to a HJ LC I do have a Destiny Poet to compare it to. You will quickly notice that the HJ crown is a bit fuller compared to the Harrison. Left is the Harrison and right the DoD Poet http://i.imgur.com/4k45a39m.jpg...

Tremolo

Congrats! The jacket looks beautiful and I really like the color here! Does the thin cowhide give you a lambskin kind of drape with added durability?

Tremolo

What an awesome memory that is and that jacket fit you perfectly! So cool of Noel Howard to let you try it on

Tremolo

While I can’t compare my Destiny jacket with the Raiders hero cut I can say that it is indeed roomier than my LC legacy (25.5 pit 2 pit) and ToD (25) jackets (all are size 46) and also feels that way. The leather is a bit thicker than the others (washed lambskin and LC Legacy) so I tend to wear it m...

Tremolo

Thanks Prodigal Son, that’s flattering to read

Sad to hear that they didn’t follow your requests for the collar but if I remember it correctly they didn’t follow all of my wishes either. But then I think I sent them over a page of requests

Tremolo

In my experience lambskin gives you that look and drape but since your goal seems to be durability instead of screen accuracy, goatskin would be a better choice. Even if it would be only to save your mind from constantly worrying about ripping your jacket. Have you considered some of their cowhide o...

Tremolo

Congrats on the new HJ and the short waiting time!

What size is your Poet? I think only the size 59 hats have a 5.5" open crown height and all others are slightly less/more in order to keep the overall proportions.

Tremolo

Oh that´s a beautiful ToD hat and I think the lighter Sable was the perfect choice! It does look really natural on you. I totally know what you mean with the Raiders hat, I feel similar when I put mine on and there are some hats/bashes that just let you feel the whole Indy vibe a bit more when you s...

Tremolo

Sleeve is the actual length of the jacket‘s sleeve. When I order a jacket I also take the shoulder into account. My ToD is also a 46 and the shoulders are 7.5“ wide from the collar. This gives you this nice overhang on the shoulders and also makes the sleeves longer as they will start below your sho...

Tremolo

That’s a fantastic looking hat and your bashing job just nailed it! The new Sable 23 colour is looking lovely, especially in the outdoor pictures and even more important it looks perfect on you.
This shows how good todays Indy hat choices really are!

Tremolo

I have to second that, the hat looks fantastic!

Tremolo

Thank you

I´m pretty sure I will remember that week for a long time!

Tremolo

Thank you all!

Indiana Jon, in which Sable color did you order your Harrison? They all look beautiful and the ToD bash look great in adVintage´s shop

Tremolo

Yesterday I received my Herbert Johnson Destiny fedora right at the 6 months mark! After getting my Advintage CS Hero fedora just last week this may be the most intense and fantastic Indy gear weeks I ever had with all those longtime orders finally coming in. :D Now to the hat, I have to say it look...

Last week I received my Advintage Crystal Skull Hero fedora! I ordered it back in November when Thomas was taking orders again and it arrived, as promised, right at the 3 months mark. :D http://i.imgur.com/cy2IeWsl.jpg This hat is definitely a true masterpiece. The beaver felt is finished extremely ...

Tremolo

Thanks guys!

I‘m really happy with it and it really completes my LC set of gear.
Bearbeast, yes that’s an 8 plait 8ft whip I bought from Kiscien here in the Cairo Bazaar about 13 or 14 years ago

Last Christmas I got a new Advintage Harrison fedora with a LC bash. It’s in New Sable and I really dig that darker color, I was especially happy that Thomas had a 58.5 size in stock, the fit is great. The felt feels very nice and overall I think it’s definitely a quality factory hat. Now after a li...

Tremolo

My first thought while watching the game trailer was that it looked a lot like the Dial of Destiny jacket, especially the collar and stormflap.

Tremolo

Beautiful distressing job Holt! I especially like the pockets. The colours are gorgeous, how do the undertones compare to your older jacket that you dyed?

Tremolo

Right, they are on Etsy as well. The pictures there didn´t quite impress me that much but when I looked at their own shop( https://www.agnoulitahats.com/collections/explorer/products/the-templar?variant=42602637951224#show ) I liked the pictures in one of the reviews. That convinced me to give it a ...

Tremolo

I thought this might be of interest for some as there is only one thread about Agnoulita hats in our forum here. As I am still anticipating my HJ Destiny poet, the urge to get another hat got stronger and stronger. After a while Agnoulita caught my eye, even though there is not much information avai...

Tremolo

I love the design overall though, as it is a much more forgiving take on the Indy fedora. With Raiders, for example, it's so striking that it almost requires you to dress around it. With the subdued pinch and softer angles of this fedora (my own opinion, anyway), it is a much more complementary hat...

Tremolo

Great looking jacket, Croft!
The wrinkled up sleeves look beautiful and, to me, even give it a slight ToD vibe. Overall I think that, besides the similarities to a normal Indy jacket, its unique features still look totally natural with the rest of the gear.

Congrats on that awesome jacket!

Tremolo

That video is indeed really helpful for getting a better idea of the color differences. I like how vibrant, although lighter, Nutmeg appears to be, and seeing it next to the LC in Deep Sable you could almost get the impression that it is meant as a slightly faded variant. I am repeating myself but I...

Tremolo

Thanks a lot guys! :TOH: Right now this really became my go to jacket, especially since the weather right now is perfect for a light leather jacket. The look of the washed lambskin amazes me every time I put the jacket on. Now I´m just trying to decide if I give it some distressing like my LC or jus...

After more than decade of enjoying my Wested Custom Crusade jacket in Novapelle I decided to get myself another one. I especially wanted an Indy jacket with a more fitted cut and less weight. After a while of thinking it through over and over again I decided on a Custom Temple of Doom jacket. Next I...

Tremolo

That’s sounds a like a reasonable waiting time! Thanks a lot for the comparison picture! The hat looks so good and I love that it looks totally Indy but with a unique twist.
It also looks like it has a slight reverse taper, what a great looking hat!

Tremolo

Congrats! That one looks awesome!

I really dig the colour and the deep sable ribbon is beautiful!

Tremolo

After much comparison and another trip to the cinema to watch Dial of Destiny I placed an order for a Destiny Poet! Now the wait begins

Tremolo

Oh thanks for that info IJJTM!

I just got that impression by Arch Stanton‘s pic and been wondering a while now

Tremolo

How much darker than Deep Sable is Nutmeg actually?

Tremolo

That's a great hat. Please forgive me if I missed it Tremolo but you ever get it re blocked? It got such a great shape! Also for anyone: is Penman back to taking orders. The website has always been difficult for me to navigate. Is there a better place to go to check on getting a new fedora by Penma...

Tremolo

Thanks a lot guys!

jgino, yes, this one is beaver. If I remember correctly, then rabbit Penmans weren´t a thing back then. I would have chosen beaver anyway as I was so impressed by all those stories describing its durability.
And I already had a couple of hats with rabbit felt.

I haven‘t been active for a couple of years but I thought it would be fun to show my beloved Penman Raiders fedora I got in 2011. It is number 350 from March 2011. I wore it a lot during my time as an archaeologist in Europe, Africa and the Near East, on vacations and of course whenever I was in the...

my Christie´s posted earlier here too..

I think it works in that episode but to me it is one of the less desirable YIJ fedoras.

That´s a nice looking Christy´s you got there. Enjoy it!
