I allways loved the LC hat with the shorter style crown and the loose pinch. It has character.
I tried to go for the same look but not an exact replica.. Just trying to pull of another one of those loose pinched LC stunt fedoras..
Something like what Vic is wearing left there..I just gave mine alittle more turn as this is my favorite hat detail ever. No Indy Fedora should be without the turn!
What do you think?

Holt,
You are living proof how great a hat the Akubra is at taking on the Indy look from any of the movies.
Regards,

That was the original intent when it was created back in 1998, Jeff.

Whoa, you've got some magic touch with those hats of yours. Well done. Is that a Fed IV? Regular or Deluxe?
