Look at the band on Speilberg's hat- red/black with very a rough edge. Same as Barranca's with some fringe added. It has a realy rough rebash. Remember, it looks too tall because these DVD captures get compressed sideways. Maybe that black fringe IS there on Steven's hat, and they cut it and let it fall on Barranca's. The color looks the same in this shot. EDIT- I turned down the saturation here-

Yes, it was straw, and it looks like it has just been distressed with a scissors! Look at the band on Steven's hat, it looks like it's 1/2 inch thick (front and back) -with that black sash uncut? Cutting a chunk out of the front of Barranca's brim would have taken the curl out of the brim- in fact, that hat would completely come apart in no time. (Again, the shot from Raiders is compressed sideways here.)

Well, 65 percent proven. The thick colorfull bands on both hats are ONLY found on Hawaiian hats. They are hat leis called huma papa. The original ones were made of feathers but they are very expensive. Note the THICKNESS The yarn ones on Steven's and Barranca's hats would be a lot cheaper. I think it's a safe bet both hats were BOUGHT in Hawaii, not brought there. probably the same model hat bought in the same store, since there was very little time spent there.
