For my birthday I got this very nice AdVintage Harrison in Sable in a Temple of Doom bash. I am a big fan of the True Sable colour, but inspired by Indiana Jon´s Pictures I really wanted to have a Harrison in Sable in my Collection.
I am very pleased and to me it nails that village look I wanted. Overall, the Harrison is a fantastic factory made hat and the block shape is so good for a lot of Indy specific bashes that I hope Thomas will keep offering them for a long time to come.
The bash was spot on out of the box, I only played around with the brim for a while as it was rather stiff and slightly odd looking with a heavy flange.

Here are a couple of Pictures:



And here is an attempt to highlight the difference between Sable and True Sable (in warm artificial light)

Lookin' good, Trem! I love having the color difference in my collection too. My lids are all lined up on my shelf, and I love seeing that Doom stand out. In fact, it quickly became my favorite, as I mentioned. Variety is indeed the spice of life.

Very nice, Tremolo! It looks awesome. Also love the whip. I think I've seen it before in one of your pics, not sure.

Cheers,

Thanks guys, this one really stands out in my collection with its colour and more pronounced taper.

Bearbeast, good eye! It’s a
10ft 12plait kangaroo CS style one from Catchall Crafts. I got it last year and it really took me quite a while to get used to it after only practicing with an 8ft whip for so many years.

Well, it's a beautiful whip, gorgeous colours. I've seen the maker around Etsy, with great reviews, nice to see someone here own one.

Yup, a 10 footer is a different beast, after cracking shorter whips the rollout of a full length bullwhip seems to take an eternity. But it is fun to crack nonetheless.

Wow! That is one beautiful hat, Tremolo! I love that Sable color, I think it really nails the way the ToD hat looks to my eye in a lot of the movie. I love the ToD hat for all the opposite reasons I love the Raiders hat There's something about the looser pinch and more taper and the way the color looks a bit lighter at times that makes it very unique among Indy's hats.

And, wow, as someone who has yet to own an AdVintage, I'm continually impressed that the Harrison, as a factory hat, can looks so stinking screen accurate. I would never have known that your ToD hat was a factory model and not a custom if you hadn't said so. It seems to me like every hat coming from AdVintage, whether a bespoke offering or a factory hat, is top notch.

Congratulations on an awesome hat!

Thanks a lot WNY Indy! The Harrison really is quite impressive for a factory hat and the different colors Thomas is offering, make it even more intriguing. I definitely see at least one more in my future.
Honestly, I would have never expected that I would be that happy with a tapered Indy hat but here I am and enjoying that it kind of closely matches a lot of scenes in ToD.
