Adventurebilt contact info

[Rondiana Jones]

Hi. New guy here.

I tried contacting Mr. Delk at the email address listed on IndyGear (sdelk@cableone.net) but the email bounced.

Looking at the AB web site, am I to assume that they're no longer taking custom orders and are now directing all new business to Penman Hats..?

FWIW, I'm interested in a Raiders style hat. Reading posts here and doing some research, it sounds like I can't go wrong with a Penman hat if I want a Raiders look, right?

Thanks.

Ron

p.s. I bought an "Indy" hat in 1981 or 1982 from a Macy's, I think. It had the official movie logo on the liner and a pin. I wore the heck out of that thing in the 80s and 90s, and it now sits in a box in my attic - probably deeply in need of a cleaning...

Mr. Penman took over the running of the Adventurebilt line with full approval and endorsement from Steve a few years ago, and yes, is in charge of the Adventurebilt hats being made currently, although they're still using the same blocks and methods that Steve used, so the exact same hat, just with less tobacco and better email response times

Send John a message, and I'm sure he'll be able to help you get what you're after!

Steve offered me a hat making job once. Told me he was making the movie hats when that was secret. He was the first person I had a conversation with on the web, at Indyfan in the 90's. I thought I came across him on a hat forum recently. Living in a shack in high desert in the West, in the sweet middle of nowhere.

3thou, would you happen to know the name of the forum?
