My AventureBilt

Post by TonyRB »

Fedora from Adventurebilt arrived a couple of weeks ago, well worth the wait for such an outstanding piece of workmanship from Steve, I can keep the HJ Poet fed for display now. I also got the jacket from Wested.

Excuse the photo was taken at dusk, I didn't use a flash so slight bluring. I will take some better ones soon.

Thanks for looking

Great hat and a cool pic. The lighting makes the pic look like a lost scene from Raiders!

Thanks for the kind replies Chiliana Jones ,Alan, Giben, Indiana Max, BendingOak and Tron7960. I'm not sure about the turn I asked Steve to do the Cario bash, I need to get up to speed on this sort of thing. AB was ordered in Nov 06.

Indy french, no I'm not left handed, I just put the gear on quickly to get a photo before the natural light went, I should of also had the strap inside the jacket. But anyway this thread is about the Fedora not about the outfit.

Thanks again guys I will try to get some new photos of the AB this weekend. :D
