Fedora wrote:Another terrific looking SOC fedora! But even this hat, on the wrong head would not look the same as it does on you. I hope everyone here understands that. Your facial shape is similiar to Ford's. There used to be another guy on here, who no matter what brand he took, the always pulled off the look better than most. Not taking anything away from you fedoraraiders.
The SOC hat, takes alot of work, to pull off. And is best done by the owner. I know I don't have the time to make em, since you are replicating a very relaxed and distressed hat. And of course, you are using rabbit felt too, which is essential, I think, for this particular look.
You have quite a bit of "artist" in you, that is evident, along with Holt, who made the best looking one I have seen to date. You are a very close second, but I can't tell for sure, unless you did what he did, and post it besides the SOC on Ford's head. That would be a great show and tell, and I would love to see you do that.
I love it when you guys take a hat, any brand, and do the work to get the look of this particular hat.
How long did it take you to get this look? That is, once you reblocked the hat? I am sure many here are curious. The back shot, from the side, looks just like LLS's blocks. Great work! Fedora
Thank you fedora!
I don't just re-block the hats, i made the hat with felt body and the accesory. I beleive that is the similar. In fact, I bought a beaver felt body from you few months ago. I make many experience with your felt. It's very interessting felt.
My head size is 59 cm, similar as Harrison but I'm realy sure that i don't have a similar head
form that Harrison Ford because I have a large head for my height and my forehead is much larger to Harrison, i'm sure.
This hat is perfect on the all head form. My hat would be perfect on anyone who has a head size similar of a mine. i'm sure.
When i re-block
or i made the hats, i call my father and my friends for the test. I put my hat on them heads and I look the hat on the all angles and i take the pictures for my archive.
Look these pictures, it's my father with my SOC hat. The look is very very nice on his head and his face does not resemble to Harrison Ford.
The head size of my friend is 57 cm and last year, i made a SOC hat for him and the look is very very good. I have 5 hat blocks with a similar form for make my Street of Cairo Hat, i have the blocks 56cm, 57 cm, 58cm, 59cm and 60 cm. Since 2 years i work on this projet and i beleive that i make the good replica.
Thanks!
Fedoraiders
P.S. Note: I have since 2 weeks a Garrison hat and my hats are very very different than those of LLS. I like the LLS hat but i love my hats that i made.
Thanks!
