That photo sold me, too. Unfortunately, I'm not built that way, and I still ended up looking like an unmade bed even in that jacket. By the way, it's good to see you alighting here briefly again, Rick5150!

Flash Gordon

You look pretty grim for a guy with such a nice jacket.

Flash Gordon

I just received the trousers that jl hampton "let go"...to me. I see what he means about the rise. You really have to hike them up. But they're of such high quality that I'm enjoying them just for that! They'll serve the purpose as Indy pants just fine. Todd certainly puts care into his pr...

Flash Gordon

So your jacket really IS screen-accurate!

Flash Gordon

Those are Indy's pants, too! Apparently he lost his iron between "Hanover" and "Raiders".

Flash Gordon

Beautiful! How much? Can we place orders?

I opened the paper this morning, and found this article about our favorite hat: http://www.nytimes.com/2011/03/11/nyregion/11nyc.html?_r=1&scp=1&sq=fedora&st=cse" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; We're WAY ah...

Both the Coopers and the Westeds were based on a cloth mock-up that Deb Nadoolman had made by Western Costumes that she brought with her from LA to the UK. That cloth mock-up was used on screen in the Hovitos chase scene because the cloth held the fullers earth better than the leather. Both Spielbe...

Great article!

It's wonderful to see someone doing something creative getting press for a change, instead of the constant barrage of negative "news".

I hope it brings you lots of well-deserved business!

Oh...yeah!

And speaking of Holmes...how about an honest-to-goodness Norfolk jacket? THAT I would love to see what you do with.

Think Sherlock Holmes.

The epaulets are too long to be Last Crusade. They're Raiders length.

I knew it!

Is that SNOW?!?! Already?!?!

Flash Gordon

My new "large" Wings naked cow jacket is way too big. The diameters of the arms are Patterson-size. I also bought a medium just in case. It's too small. So here's what I thought I'd do before I sell one of them: Since I can't make the small one bigger, I'll try to make the big one smaller....

Michaelson posted a photo?!?!

Flash Gordon

Just got my jacket. On the bright side, the leather is fantastic! I LOVE it! It's just the right color and the right feel and it smells great! It looks like it will age wonderfully. Not so bright; there's a black line that runs right across the front from the right sleeve to the zipper. Not so bad i...

Flash Gordon

The length looks all right, but it looks a little baggy on you. How does it look zipped up?

I'll take it!

PM to follow with my address.

Flash Gordon

They went to all the trouble of putting those Indy strips underneath the pockets...what would it have taken to continue all the way up? Arrggghh!

Flash Gordon

Why do you suppose the "bilt" part of "Adventurebilt" is crossed out with black marker? Did Ford do it when he signed the hat?

Flash Gordon

Which jackets had the d-rings and which jackets had the sliders? (Cooper, Wested, etc.?)

And how did they come to have different fasteners in the first place?

You'd think that they'd want to keep the hardware the same if they're trying to duplicate jackets.

Flash Gordon

It all boils down to sliders and D-rings. Mmmm...sliders and D-rings...

Flash Gordon

BANG!

Flash Gordon

Has anyone mentioned d-rings in some scenes and sliders in others?

Flash Gordon

As you look at the photo, the left side of the brim looks a lot bigger than the right side. That's quite a dimensional cut!

Flash Gordon

I don't know if I'd actually wear the thing around. Especially to pizza joints. I'd probably keep in in a glass display case at home. But then, I'm not a movie star.

Flash Gordon

Billy Rubin wears a liver color Netchuebillin.

(get it? bilirubin? is there a doctor in the house?)

Flash Gordon

Around lunchtime today, I stopped in a pizza joint at Bleeker Street and 7th Avenue here in Manhattan, and on the wall were the usual photos of celebrities who've eaten there. One caught my eye...it was Shia LaBeouf standing between two of the pizza parlor guys and he was wearing: A BROWN INDY HAT! ...

Flash Gordon

Yep.

He would have made a terrific Indy!

Who ELSE from the Golden Age of Hollywood could have been cast in various other roles in the Indy films?

Flash Gordon

DON'T wear them in the rain!!!

You'll slip and break your neck!!!

They have absolutely NO traction on wet surfaces. In fact, it's NEGATIVE traction

. OUCH!

Flash Gordon

Let's see the lid on your noggin when you get it, Michaelson. SOMEBODY there must have a camera and know how to use it.

AND, I finally get to use this!:

Hey! It's the Green Hornet's hat!

Flash Gordon

I always figured he wore the tie because he was going to see his father.

You know, to show he wasn't a slob. Out of respect.

"Yes, sir!" "No, sir!"

Flash Gordon

I've noticed that I dissipate more quickly these days with use and airing.

Flash Gordon

Marc, you MUST post photos of your Dad wearing that spectacular hat!!

Flash Gordon

I'll bet they tried it on when they opened the box to inspect it.
"Look! I'm Indiana Jones!"
Maybe that's how it got the hole.

Flash Gordon

Haha. Look at that big seam running through the pillar in the background.

Flash Gordon

Atta boy, Steve!

Too bad they still don't have those old TV shows "What's My Line" or "I've Got A Secret". You'd be the perfect guest.

Flash Gordon

Ouch, my sleeves are so so. If they shrink they will be too short. :shock: There's some extra leather folded under at the lining. He unfolded it, re-sewed it and now it looks great! Really, and old crease doesnt showed up? Not really. The tailor ironed the crease, or whatever they do to leather to ...

Flash Gordon

It happened to me on a Wested lamb. I took it to a tailor, and he lengthened the sleeves. There's some extra leather folded under at the lining. He unfolded it, re-sewed it and now it looks great!

Flash Gordon

I've read about the Crystal Skull fedoras being sent to Baron Hats for what's been called "tweaking".

The KOTCS hat I got from Steve looks pretty much like the one in the movie.

Why did Bernie think the fedoras needed tweaking, and what exactly was done?

Flash Gordon

Hey! What's that sticking out of his right shirt cuff? A hanky?

Flash Gordon

ALL the time. I'm constantly pulling them back to center. Why can't they design them so they stay put, like other shoes?

Flash Gordon

Can we buy a liner to replace the old one in our hats?

Flash Gordon

The horsehide is quite a bit heavier and stiffer than the lamb. The drape is different and it doesn't react and flow like the lamb. I'm not sure if it's actually THAT much warmer, but it sure is a sturdy jacket. I've actually gotten compliments on the leather itself.

Flash Gordon

We need to find out who Indy used to clean and re-block his hats after each adventure. If it's supposed to be the same hat, after all that dirt and water in the Crystal Skull, for example, when he gets married at the end, the hat looks brand-new. And the crown was re-blocked higher between Temple of...

Nice to see you back, _.

Beautiful! Let's see it on your noggin!
