By only 8 years! :lol:

No, there have been no sightings of any Gary White hats for many MANY years here, so you'll have to give us a report if/when you order one.

Good luck

Yeah I guess a little more than extremely late hahaha,

Anyway yes! I stopped in yesterday and chatted with Gary for the afternoon, the work he had on display was very high quality. Lots of different felts and ribbon to choose from. I told him I was looking for a hat that sort of combines elements of both the Raiders and Crusade, essentially brim shape and "curl" of the raiders but with the loose pinch and deep brown hue of the crusade hat. When all was said and done, he seemed to have a pretty good hold of what I was after.

My hat should be done around September-October and I will be sure to post as things come together. Overall Gary has been pleasant and accommodating so far. I anxiously await updates.

Generally speaking you described the Crystal Skull fedora. Overall dimensions of the Raiders hat with a looser front pinch. I look forward to seeing it.

Yes, and since I went with pure beaver felt it would be probably most similar over all to the Crystal Skull hat. I look forward to seeing it as well haha :H:
