I put in an order for this new jacket. I got a prompt reply from Todd. Hi Erik, I wanted to touch base with you with an update on our new Indy jackets. After several months (including a month lost in transit) the prototype is here! It has been so long since we have had jackets, it was like starting ...

This gentleman on Instagram got a close up look at the archives in the Smithsonian. The hat, Jacket and some props. I didn't know where to post this so here goes. Just scroll down a bit. Maybe he is a member here and can shed some light on how he got a chance to take a look. https://www.instagram.co...

I notice right off the bat that your creases go way to far back to the middle of the hat. They should be more to the front. What is the height of the hat open-crowned? What are your crease heights in the back and the front? Can you show a picture of it open-crowned so we know what we are working with.

I got mike to make me a raiders hat in a different color. His block and bash was perfect. I would just order his standard raiders and give the dimensions and there you go. The turn might be a question mark though. http://i1293.photobucket.com/albums/b589/gunner25111/11143482_991981217480852_10806636...

Just gets better and better every time I wear it. I have Rolled it up and jammed it in a backpack. I have used it to collect water and used it as a pillow. It's versitile. Oh and it keeps the sun off your neck too. http://i1293.photobucket.com/albums/b589/gunner25111/Adventurebilt/AA4D40F6-CA8E-4E0D...

What did the measurements of the brim turn out to be? Just curious. Looks great!

Where would be a good place to purchase these when the fall line comes out? Internet sites i mean. The fortune and the other ones Matt posts on instagram. I live in canada.

That looks good to me. Definitely stepped up their game from what i can see from pictures. Is that the general consensus? No more powder dye and better construction?

Your Fed looks great. Since you stated your a little OCD about it here is a link from Steve discussing his specs. If your interested. Its a good read anyways. http://indygear.com/cow/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=48113&p=695451&hilit=+SPECS#p695451" onclick="window.open(this.href);return...

Shipped open crowned. That's a bonus. Anyone seen one of these? Price? Thoughts?

You can always ask Baron Hats. They "made" it after all.

Any update on these squeeky shoes? Did you try the powder? Did it work? I have got a squeaky Jackboot that I can't get rid of.

I usually wear a Large in all Jackets and shirts and got a Large in my Todd's. I should have gotten a XL. It will start to annoy you so I would exchange for a larger size.

From what i can see he is the best at what he does in the distressing department. There are others out there that got into it aswell. Westbrook. Nick fouquet. A few others that have done a few here and there. Havstadhatco and the like. But to make a hat with bullet holes and basically tarred and fea...

erikgunnlugson

The more I look at them the more I like this distressed look. That is not fullers earth though I dont think. Paint? Charcoal? Lacquer? Might try something with a cheap find off of e-bay.

erikgunnlugson

From what I see when reading up on him earlier. He IS the guy Hollywood goes to for making their hats.

erikgunnlugson

So he just dry blocked a hat and sanded it down and popped it off and steamed in the bash and the flange? That seems time consuming and difficult for no reason. Do you think that is a better way to go about it? What would be the point?

erikgunnlugson

So I have and I am sure most of us know how a felt hat is made by hand (more or less). Adventurebilt, Penman and others have posted step by step shots of how it is done. So I was looking at Gunner Foxx's hats and I saw his step by step tutorial and it confuses me. https://schaeffersgarmenthotel.word...

This is a beaver AB. Second hand from e-bay. It was brand new when i got it.

I hear what your saying John. When i took this pic the hat had been soaked through and the weight of the water kinda smooshed it. I mean after it dried it tapered a bit and lost some brim break. http://i1293.photobucket.com/albums/b589/gunner25111/Adventurebilt/957AF82B-CA57-4C5F-937C-F4BA865BFF42_z...

Well i kind of wanted the indy vibe but wanted a lighter color so it goes with more of what i usually wear on a day to day basis. I was hoping to get away from the indy hat comments so i went with a shorter crown and shorter brim sizes but its his indy blok. Fits my face better too imo. I also have ...

I am going to guess PB too. As for the sweatband stitching showing. He probably just sat on the hat once or twice. My AB does that now too, I am always pulling it down over the stitches.

What is the length of this jacket If you dont mind me asking. More blazer length than bomber jacket length ya?

Have you tried Heronleather.com for custom work? No personal experience but heard good things and it is not a scam site unlike those others online with stolen photoshopped images.

Like it has been folded in half. The brim starts to slope down on the side of the hat instead of the front.

John how do you get that bend in the brim on your Raiders hats you have been posting on facebook? Are you just bending the whole hat in half? Doesnt show in your bash videos and it looks super cool! I would like to give it a try with my AB.

Is there ar timeline/location for shooting for LC? Just wondering if you could maybe follow a hat through location and whatnot to see how it shrinks up.
