Hello all. I have searched but could'nt seem to find the info that I need. I need the sizes of the parts of the LC hat (front height, rear height) mainly the brim size. I f anyone can help with this or post a link to a thread that I may have missed that would be fantastic.
All the best

Re: LC SPEC SIZES
The LC crown is slightly lower than the Raiders bash. If the Raiders hat is 4 3/4" front bashed crown, and 4 1/2" rear bashed crown, the LC would be around 4 1/2 to ~4 1/4 front crown bash, and around 4 1/4" rear crown bash. Brim dimensions, as you have some brim curl: 2 7/8" front and back, 2 5/8" side to side.

Thankyou very much. That is a great help, you are a star.
Re: LC SPEC SIZES
The Stetsons used in TLC came with a 2 5/8 by 2 3/8 brim. 5 inch open crown height. I am fairly certain the HJs used in that same film were 2 3/4 by 2 1/2 brimwidth.
I see a couple different crown heights in TLC. One, looks to be no more than 4 3/4 inches tall. Others appear to be taller. Like the other films, the dimensions seem to vary a bit, either they came that way, or shrinkage occurred. Since they used rabbit, I think it is safe to assume shrinkage did happen, before they swapped out hats. Fedora
