How does Indy wear his fedora?

I heard some where that a fedora is supposed to sit right above and not touch the ear. I was wondering if Indy followed those guidelines.

Well, I just finish watching Raiders less than an hour ago. It looked to me like Indy's hat sat about one or two fingers-width above the ear most of the time. So that seems like a yes to me.

I think as long as it stays on your head your pretty right :twisted:

Indy wears it fairly high on his forehead as well most of the time - probably so the camera can see all those monkey-faced expressions when he is freaking out.

Just like the one in Chewbacca Jones' avatar :lol:

Keep in mind the shape of his head also affects how it sits on his noggin. :wink:

obviously in the 3 films they are 3 completely different hats.. and even in each film there are more than one hat being worn through out so i think that effects the non continuity of hat positioning!!

with crystal skulls i think there is another factor to take into account.. I remeber hearing a few years back that men's noses and ear never stop growing and i believe that harrisons ear size has changed from crusade to new film... i know its a sad observation to make!! but anyway i think that it might have an effect on the subject of this thread?

Red Dust,

Are you sure you didn't read that men's nose and ear HAIR never stop growing? That I could believe. :rolling: Just kidding.

Most men have one nose and two ears, but what you say is true; Mickey mouse is 80 years old and clearly proves your point.
