Here's a snapshot of one of our pairs. A little bit shiny with all the light. Still shows what a warm, non red, milky chocolate they turn into over time, only using tender grease and care.

Stefan

The aging and polishing makes a big difference to the color. We offer the service to do the initial treatment for everyone who is interested. It then takes only a little bit of repolishing after wearing and the color fades into what is seen on the last picture I posted.

Hi, no we we're not changing anything for the batch. The color of the stitching matches the leather.

Stefan

Hi everyone, we are currently preparing a new batch of these vintage Raiders boots from Alden. The new leather has sparked quite some discussion here and I post a picture below of how they turn out after being worn for half a year. As stated also above, the color fades into a much darker tone. Pleas...

Here's my nearly 4 years old ABD in the Egyptian desert. We had a horseback ride from a farm near Saqqara into the desert and back but the light was already very low when we started to take pictures, My ABD has been with me in Egypt for a year now and I loved to wear it on any trips outside of town....

Stefan

Not sure that Deborah changed the creasing on this hat. I mean why would she mess it up if she already recognized it as a Raiders? I'd rather say he had changed it on it's own while playing around with it. Actually I'm not sure when he had the guts to do so because in those scenes it seems to be st...

Thank you for your comments Gentlemen!

Stefan

Took some time to finish the second ABD for myself but the result is very nice imo.
It's black felt with dark grey ribbon + black highlights on the bow and as additional trimming it has a bound brim edge.
The result looks like this:

[/quote] hahaha... you know Marc, one guy with a hat brings attention enough, now imagine 2 guys with hats (and very good ones) But Stefan had his own adventures in Beirut's pubs... as far as I know \:D/ :whip: :D[/quote] Yep, can second that :lol: Beirut is great for Pub night outs and lebanese gir...

Stefan

Guess you're the first Aussie owner of a Henry! Congrats

Stefan

Couldn't resist!
Here's a photo with my pair of AB Alden shot in a restaurated fortress in Sur, Oman

Stefan

Last I heard from Marc was 3 weeks ago. This is what he said: Which makes me a bit jealous! :lol: At least he seems to be ok, I was getting worried about him. Hopefully he will resurface real soon. Maybe he and his wife have had their first child! That'll explain it! :lol: Fedora Hehe, that would e...

Stefan

I made him a camel hat a couple months ago, and never got a response if he ever recieved it or not. Shipping overseas, isn't always reliable, as I have found out, over the years. That hat goes fantastic! Marc's totally overwhelmed by it and he wears it almost every day :) Please feel free to give m...

Stefan

Lovely pics!
I was also an a hike this summer. It took a friend and me from Sweden to Norway and my ABD was all the way on top.

Stefan

Nice to see your Henry in action, djd I was amazed that John had your size left! We already ran out of all sizes couple of weeks ago with our stock. Good news is that we recently received the new batch. Our stock has now a adequate size and will, or hopefully not :lol: , last longer than ever before...

Stefan

What is SA at all regarding the grey Raiders hat?

The felt specs (stiffness, thickness, contents) are all the same as known from the original Henrys, btw

Stefan

It's now time to start taking pre-orders for the grey Henry! We've decided to put a nature tan sweatband on it. The price for the grey Henry is 189,00 Euro! I'm sorry that we cannot offer the (forum-)price of the original Henry to you for this one. Shipping is included! Thanks to all who have given ...

Stefan

Thanks again for all your votes! It will be the same felt as seen in the middle of the pictures. We hope that the first batch is ready for shipping by the end of september. Marc will post the price later on. There's just one more question...... Which colour for the sweatband? The both prototypes abo...

Stefan

Stefan, is there any news on the other colors that Marc was working on for the Henry? I know blue and green were two of the colors. Dave Grey is the first added colour for the Henry.We cannot offer more colours now, but it's still a project for the future. I know it's hard to decide if the grey Hen...

ups,the right one was not meant to be out of poll

We have used different screengraps with different light conditions from Raiders and those three colours turned out

Stefan

Dear all, there are news about the grey Henry :D We have received a pair of two different grey-tones and would like you to give us your opinion on which colour to choose for the grey Henry. While taking out of the box, we were stunned that grey is not always grey and how they look different dependin...

Stefan

verc nice inside and good to see you working

G'sunday

Stefan

Hard to say , when those are ready. We still have to work out some details before we get the first samples done

Stefan

the choice is black :clap: There are just a couple of heads who like to see a dark grey ribbon on the grey Henry. Another way to find out which colour was on the original Raiders hat, would be to ask this guy from screenused.com, as I was not sure about that. The Colour on the KOTCS grey hat was def...

Stefan

Hi everbody, as many folks have asked for "The Henry" in grey colour, we've started to prepare for that project. But there's a question about the colour of the ribbon. You may have a look at the picture and tell us which colour you prefer. Sure the grey of the felt is an important fact whe...

Stefan

Hey Matt, good to see your Henry finally on your head :) Indeed , the centerdent must have popped out while shipping. Maybe we should tell Mr Muy Fragil that FedEx doesn't take care about his advertise :lol: But you've done right with bashing it back where the center has to be and also with given it...

Stefan

The Henrys have arrived this week and it looks good to have many of them here

We can now crease them on demand and bring them on it's way shortly!
The current orders will go out this week!

Stefan

This is my hat and me at easter weekend's fire. (There are made so called easter-fires on easter holidays in our part of germany everywhere). Amanzing what you can do with a cam, a friend, a long exposure time and a LED as a whip :) http://i600.photobucket.com/albums/tt81/ABStefan/IMG_0440.jpg (Mod ...

Stefan

Your are right Matt. We've increased the price to 175€,- for members (roughly 229,25 USD) since we offer to crease The Henry. This extra money is for the higher shipping costs we have. The good point is also that we'll have Henrys on stock from May on and there are still some sizes available with a ...

Stefan

allright, thank you!

Stefan

The Henry comes in full (centimetre) sizes! May some of you can send me a pm with your sizes? Still not binding, I'd just like to collect some experience which sizes are more often than others ( Are there many 64er out here :-k ?) Furthermore I can make sure that your size will be one of the first (...

Stefan

Thank you for the friendly welcome! I'm glad that no one is shouting something like: what does that newbie want from us? Your answers sounds very positive so far! We will shoot pictures of the Henry for our homepage in the next few days and I'll post them here as well! The main reason why we decide ...

Stefan

Hello, first I would like to introduce myself: My name is Stefan and some of you may have heard that I support Marc with making those beautiful Hats! Many, many thanks at this point for so many good reactions that you have posted so far in the topic where Marc has introduced me! For me it is an hono...
