Fed Deluxe IV - what colour????
I just ordered a fed deluxe IV in dark brown. But I've just noticed a lot of people going for Heritage fawn. Which is the right colour to be more SA?

Dark brown is the color you want for a more SA hat.

Phew - I'm glad to hear that! I ordered one yesterday, and I was nervously eyeing this thread!
Thanks for putting my mind at rest! (Now I'm only worried if it'll fit my huge noggin'...and if I'll have to pay tax on it... )
Re: Fed Deluxe IV - what colour????
Dark Brown and it's a truly gorgeous hat.
Here's mine...
No steam, just a dry bashing into that shape...and it stays there like it was made for it

Re: Fed Deluxe IV - what colour????
A lot of people have been buying the fawn because they like the contrast of the dark ribbon on the lighter felt. I've also seen those who go on the logic that, when Indy's hat is at it's dirtiest, it looks like a dark tan rather than brown. Personally, I think that's just an excuse to buy a nice non-Indy hat!
You have chosen wisely.

Anyone have a pic of the fawn, and/or a fawn beside a dark brown Fed IV?

for once I just followed the directions that HD sent with the hat.
Held the brim flat on my chest, and pushed in the dent inwith the palms of my hands.
Worked like a treat.

Wow! Indiana Holt that's one of my favourite views of the SoC hat - your hat looks fantastic you've really captured the look.
Is that the reg fed 4 or is it the deluxe?

Re: Fed Deluxe IV - what colour????
Nice hat but I really love the beaten up SOC look. Your fed 4 deluxe captures that well worn look.
Any other fed 4 deluxe pics?
Different angles?
Outdoor lighting?

Re: Fed Deluxe IV - what colour????
wow! your're great! I did'nt thought could do something like this with a Fed4..how did you bash it?Indiana Holt wrote:here is my dark brown fed4
Re: Fed Deluxe IV - what colour????
with a lot of TLC.
I used very, very long time on this hat. Did everyhting you can imagine just to beat it up and make it limp like the soc hat, then start working on the bash STEP by STEP. using very little water and steam. and few clothes pinches... then beat it up again....

Re: Fed Deluxe IV - what colour????
my Fed Deluxe 4 arrived today!!!!! I've managed to get a near perfect Raiders bash from it. It's such a good Indy hat, really captures the Indy feel so much more than my original Fed. I'm gonna have to put some pics up in the fed 4 thread.

No you really shouldn't be! It's a beautiful hat. But I'm getting better at bashing.

Re: Fed Deluxe IV - what colour????
Sorry I'm having some real problems with my laptop - it won't charge! I'm typing this from my iPod touch... frustrating! I still haven't worked out how to get my photos from my phone to my iPod.
Maybe I could send them in an email?
Help anyone?

Or you could plug in your laptop instead of using the battery.
