Ark101, You won't be disappointed with Advintage! Thomas makes some, if not, the best hats at the moment! The felt quality is amazing. I have an amazing Crusader from him in Beaver with map liner in true sable, as well as CS Hero (which is my holy grail in Indy hats now) and couldn't be happier. I a...

I was able to stop in with my son and see John at his shop in the first week of April. I was in town for a wedding and brought him an AB KOTCS for reblocking. I really enjoyed my time with him talking shop and seeing him in his element. At the time he let me know he was waiting on some materials bu...

Beautiful hat and loving the box too. I have a CS Hero on order from Thomas myself, the waiting part is the worse :? but his hats are so worth it. I'm eager to see more pictures of yours, especially the inside with the liner... :CR: Does yours have a logo on it? I've asked for mine to be without, ju...

Sorry for the disappointment but I'm sure Thomas will make the new hat to the perfect size. I too recently purchased an Advantage LC in beaver. size 59.7 too actually (that is pretty average size it seems ;) ) and it also felt quit snug when I put on the first time. I got a hat stretcher and stretch...

Gorgeous hat APL!!!
John is truly an artist

I have the privileged of owning a CS fedora from him myself, still have to post pics of it though

will do that soon!
I could not imagine myself anymore buying a lid from someone else than John!

Best regards

mcmanm,

I was wondering the same thing, quite interested in getting a F&G before the summer but the hat section seems to have dissapeared on his site...

Can't find any prices either...
It would be great to know if Dusty is still offering the F&G.

I own a handmade Advintage Fedora made from Thomas. I bought it more than 2 years ago, its a beaver KOTCS. It is an awesome hat!!! It has not change a bit qualitywise in the last 2 years, just gained in character :whip: from wearing it lots! It has gone through rain, snow, heat, sun and lots more! T...

j2m

Thanks again for the input IJ!!! :H: But, if one day, say I decide to purchase an SOC Fedora from one of the amazing hat makers that offer it, does that mean the dust they put on the hat would also fly away in a bit of wind? or do they actually have a way of making it stick to the felt? I'm sorry fo...

j2m

Thanks for the reply IJ, Ya, I've thought about the sock technique and the brush, even had earbuds in mind for the little details... will try doing a bit of research... 8-[] I'm just not sure about one thing too, does the earth stick to the hat really well once applied? or is there some kind of secr...

Hi everyone, I've used the search option but with no luck :P Maybe i've missed it but anyway...

Hey everyone, I thought I would restart this thread as there aren't any general thread about the Crease n' Corral whips that I could find. 8-[] Well, I've never owned a whip before and I thought this year, it's the piece of gear I'm gonna get! Did some research here of course and thanks to all the p...

I'll agree with IJ, great hat and customer service!
Just a little tip, they run slightly bigger... I'm a 60.5 custom size and ordered a 60 instead of a 61 and the hat fits perfectly!
Good to know if you are in between sizes

No worries, you're welcome

Hi The Numenorean I guess if Adventurebilt does have your size in stock, it can be shipped once payment is received :) That would then mean anything close from a week to ten days! Well that was the case when I ordered mine anyway. If they do not have your size, I don't know what the waiting period w...

I've seen a hat get a hole like this one, it was in the movie ''my name is nobody'' when Henry Fonda's character shoots Terrence Hil's hat like 4-5 times and there's supposed to be only one hole... :Plymouth: I know, not relevant to the thread but that pic just made me think of that scene :P I doubt...

j2m

Thank you so so much for the kind words guys :notworthy: really appreciated :TOH: I am more than happy with those hats. KOTCS is my favourite bash out of the movies but Raiders comes in a very close second, so when I got my Advintage a month ago, I looked at my Henry bashed in CS style, here's some ...

Hi everyone, I felt like playing with the camera today and thought it would be nice to share a few pics of my hats. The link below brings you to the album. The first hat is a Henry I got a year ago, it was originally bashed in a CS style but about a month ago I decided it didn't look right like that...
