It makes most sense to me that Indy would have a trusted, traditional, gentlemen's hatter thathe returned to every time his hat got lost or damaged. The conversation would go something like:
Ah, Dr. Jones. Nice to see you again.
Hi, Mr Johnson. Well... you know what I'm going to say.
Another hat lost?
Yup.
We'll, we've already established your size and preferences, let's see, yes, the nearest we have is this.
Perfect!

If he could survive, why wouldn't his hat?

'Fallout' can be scrubbed away (as seen when he was being brushed down in CS). Clothing items, on the other hand, are disposed of.

Keep in mind, he didn't just ride it out in the 'fridge', he walked to the top of the ridge and viewed the mushroom cloud that towered above him...WELL within fallout range.

Yep. I used to work in the nuclear industry years ago. I can't tell you how many times I had to leave articles of clothing (gloves, trousers and shoes) for disposal after videotaping some material training on a cell floor. There is no discussion or debate with a safety officer or industrial hygiene personnel. You just hand over the article and move on.

Maybe Steve or Marc should have a cameo role in Indy V... They could show a scene of Indy picking up his hat after a reblock. Hehehe.

Here's another idea... Indy could have just ordered like 20 of the exact same hat. When one got lost or ruined he just moved on to the next hat.

Yeah then when they updated the Indy DK book, it could have their names instead of Herbert Johnson. I thought that was kinda crappy that it stated the AB was a Herbert Johnson....I understand why, as HJ was around in 1957 and AB wasn't.....but still.

Now in CS I can see it as a "travel" hat, as he was just taking a leisurly train ride and then maybe a boat/plane ride to London.

This comment from SS kinda makes me wish he had been wearing a grey in the venice scene of LC.....

Great, love it, there's only one problem: based on the Life Magazine being read on the plane, which is dated November 23, iirc, it seems clear that the search for the Ark takes place in late November-Early December of 1936. So you've got Sallah sending his gear back about nine months too early. -M

They use multiple hats even in YIJC. The hat in Spring Break adventures and Adventures in the secret service is the tall stovepipe one on the right side there. Later on during the series a shorter crowned fedora similar to the one on the left was used that seemed to be almost a c or teardrop bash instead of the center bash. Mystery of the blues, hollywood follies, Mystery of the Peacocks eyea nd some others used the shorter crowned hat.

But it looked alot better then the one on the left there.....that one looks like they pulled it out of the river and threw it on SPF's head. I remember seeing that too, thinking, "dear god, thats not the same hat!" lol.

True, but it is a movie. Keep in mind too that for some reason the man wears the exact same pants, shirt and boots, but his hat and jacket change every three years.

So what really lasts longer - your pants/shirt or your beloved hat/ jacket? (Perhaps Indy found a surplus store in the early 30's and bought a couple dozen of each - pants, shirt, boots.)

Don't even get me started about the gun.

PS - the Sallah letter should probbaly mention the grey clipper fedora, too. (I'm assuming he'd bring it from Mongolia to Cairo, right?)

Posted: **Sat Feb 13, 2010 10:16 pm**

I figure if the man is willing to pay for someone to make him an exact copy of the same custom jacket, then he's willing to pay for someone to make some custom adventure pants and shirts too...

Since he based his style almost exactly off of Fedora....tan pants, leather jacket, satchel and brown fedora......then he was already purposefully searching for certain articles of clothing in order to make a certain style in the first place. Similar to how we see Indy and try to emulate his style...maybe not with the exact same clothes, but Indy gear that suits us, how Fedora's gear was modified to suit Indy.

His pants, shirts, and jacket are obvious custom since they are reminiscent of military (to fit in with indy's time of service) but they are not military issue (the pants might be, but I thought Officer Pinks weren't pleated and Indy's pants are) and more reminiscent of Fedora. Add to that purposefully having a strap made for a mark VII gas mask bag......

A man willing to do all that.....he's def. willing to buy more then one brown hat of a similar style.

Posted: **Sun Feb 14, 2010 9:55 am**

Ive always had the feeling, based purely on what I thought was logical, that, over the years, IJ just bought a number of items that he used and liked, and then rebought them as needed, including the hat. Military issue stuff has been available for years. I dont know if a civilian could buy stuff like that back then, but then again, IJ obviously had connections, and he wasnt the most completely scrupulous character, either, at times. He could have obtained relatively mundane stuff, like clothing, as he obviously did obtain treasures in his adventures, that other people couldnt.

He liked what he liked, and just bought a lot (enough) of it.

As far as the jacket, the average viewer only knows that IJ is wearing a brown leather jacket, which were available back then, as well. It doesnt have to be custom made in the IJ world, it was just 'available.' But for the movie, it had to be right - cut to work, look right, and fit HF. But in IJ world, its just a brown leather jacket.

Same thing with the bag and strap. They needed a vintagey-looking thing that had to be the right size, hang a certain way, and a leather strap just looks cool. So, in the real world, a bag from the 'future' was found, a leather strap was added, and voila! thats what was normally available in the IJ world of the 1930s. What do we call this? Artistic license?

True, but Indy's jacket is obviously the exact same style throughout at least 20 years if not longer......most people don't make the same style jacket for that long....which leads me to believe its a custom job, or a jacket he bought sometime between 1922 and 1935 and then had it replicated over the years.

The pants might have been available, if officer pinks had pleats. On Magnoli's website, he sells the "indy pants" which have pleats....and then sells "officer pinks" which don't have pleats. yet in the description for the indy pants, he states that they are officer pinks....so that's where my confusion on those comes from. So I don't know if the Indy pants were standard issue or just based on officer pinks.

Indy's shirt isn't standard issue in any military is it? Sure its a military styled shirt but I've never found a shirt like that in any surplus store. So that seems to be a custom job....

of course the bag...is always going to be anachronistic (aside from CS).

But, his style, his want to emulate Fedora's style....leads me to believe he would buy more then one fedora to achieve his style and keep it going over the years.

I think it means more to me have it be the same hat. I think Steve helps convince this hypothesis to me since I have a good feeling (and I think John has even said this), that a hand-made AB hat could easily last a lifetime.

But the cool thing is that until established for sure on film, it's up to us to decide. I am just glad HF agrees with me. $\:D/$

True, an AB would/ will last a lifetime. A Herbert Johnson, though... eh...

And I don't think an AB would ever look as bad as the hat did for a good portion of The Temple of Doom.

Posted: **Wed Apr 14, 2010 12:27 am**

^ True. Technically, there is no on screen confirmation about who made the hats. I take solace in knowing that its POSSIBLE in real life that a hat can be created to last (so it can be especially so in the films). As far as I am concerned Steve and Marc made Indy's one hat from YIJ on and I won't accept otherwise

(sticks fingers in ears, "la la la la la").

Posted: **Sat Apr 17, 2010 6:13 pm**

Indy would probably do what most of us would do. Go to your favorite hatter and buy a new one.

The question is...would he choose the Penman or the Adventurebilt??? For you must choose wisely.

Posted: **Sat Apr 17, 2010 10:45 pm**

I think that due to the rough and tumble nature of these adventures, you have to error on the side of practicality and conclude that eventually, he would have rotated his clothing, boots, hat and jacket, etc., as things were lost, became thread bare, or were just plain were torn off the body. The jacket after the truck chase, and the use of the LC jacket two years later, as one example. Tradition is one thing, but I would think that you have to rationalize that it just was not possible. jmo.

In the 1930's, he might have had all of 3 fedoras, his dress brown, dress gray and the 'adventure' hat.

Michaelson wrote:Can't grasp the fact that Indy is a fictional character? Excuse me, but a LOT of us have made that very statement for decades on forums all over the internet.

The question posed in the subject title is 'how would Indy replace his hat?' That is not a question regarding a 'fictional' or 'mythical' item. That is a question regarding replacement of a real world piece of gear.

His gear was never originally intended to be so philosophically 'deep'. According to the original book, he DID lose his hat, as well as his whip etc. when he left the ship and went to the sub in Raiders. It's only been over the years that the story gets spun over and over again to give these items a story of their own.

There was nothing absolutely 'magical' about the hat in the beginning. It's only become so in recent years, and like I said, it's one spin I've never accepted. It all started back when it 'returned' to Indy in LC, which was only intended as a visual joke when it originally happened. They couldn't figure out how to get it back on his head to finish the film after the tank fight, so why not just have the wind blow it back with Ford giving a comic double take?

The 'Lone Ranger' analogy, though good, is not equal. His silver bullets were introduced and created as a symbol of good from the very beginning. Indy's hat, on the other hand, has taken on a life of its own. What started out as just a head covering has become a 'talisman' of mythical proportion.

What next? His jacket a symbolic shield against evil? The whip his sword of justice?

Ford also originally said Indy was nothing more than a grave robber too. Nothing mythical about that!

Anyway, not to be a wet blanket here. If that's the path you choose to walk, go for it. This is just a hobby, and whatever 'floats your boat' and all that .....I'm just not interested in going down that trail myself, and never have been.

So, to reply to the question posed, he would have just gone to his local mens clothing store and purchased a replacement. They were in every town, and on almost every corner, and remained so in some form or other right up until the early 1970's (at least they did in MY hometown).

Regards! Michaelson

I like what you have said in multiple posts on this subject, Michaelson, and it resonates with me as well. Good, practical, sound rationale. Insight into why the 'hero' character HAD to wear his hat, as well. As my Dad grew up in that generation, he never had a closet full of suits, but of those he had, they were the best. Depression era was just a different time, far and gone, it seems from today. That generation knew real sacrifice.

If it is just a (f--ortune and glory) jacket, surely its just a (f---ortune and glory) hat?

A few thoughts then I'll close. I think some opportunity was lost in creating minor characters, like a favorite hat maker, his leather jacket taylor, to create interesting characters whom Indy would visit occasionally for replacements, reblocks, etc.
"...oh, YOU again?" "What happened to the last one I made for you?" "You go through hats like most people change their socks!" Indy recounts the story as the guy is cutting his jacket or reblocking his hat, etc.? Some banter with these guys that helped to create 'the look'.

Posted: **Tue Apr 20, 2010 10:09 am**

^ I dunno. Sort of think like sausages and laws, its prob. best not to know exactly how they're made. If we saw the process, we would lose the imagination.

Posted: **Tue Apr 20, 2010 5:52 pm**

I get this image in my mind of Indy going into the hatter's shop. He has just re-blocked it, and has taken out most of the character marks from the last adventure. Dirt, deep scars, even a couple of blood stains. This time, he earned every cent. From the look of it, as it originally came through the door, it must have been quite a story. Indy pops in at closing time, for an exchange, picks up the hat, and exits the shop, hat in hand. He stops briefly on the sidewalk, fiddles with it a bit, returning its shape back to the old, familiar, and puts it back on his head. Credits roll as we see Indy strolling down the sidewalk, his image becomming smaller and fading into the distance.

That inspired this alternate idea:

The film is about Indy's "last" adventure before retirement. At the end of the adventure, his hat blows off his head and slowly falls thosands of feet over a cliff. Dejected, but glad his mission is complete, he leaves. At the end of the film Indy recieves a package. He reads the card, it says :"Found this. -(friend). Sure enough, its his hat. He puts it on, smiles, and movie ends.

I'd like to add to this. When the hat goes over the cliffside, Mutt makes a failed attempt at retrieving it. Sadly ol' Mutt takes the 1000 foot plunge along with the hat. The note could still read "Found this...but not your son." IJ flashes that devilish smiles, roll credits.
