First of all, welcome aboard! And don't worry so much about your English because I assure you my Polish is worse! :lol:

That is a very interesting hat you have. Even though the ribbon may not be 100% Indy, I actually like how they've folded it up. It is a very distinctive look. Do you know what kind of felt it is? It looks quite fuzzy. Do you mind sharing how much you paid for the hat?

Still, I think it looks pretty good and it pulls off the Indiana Jones look nicely. It looks great on you, too. And if you love the hat, then that is all that matters. :wink:

I REALLY like your Indy hat!!

I'm grinning from ear to ear right now. :D

My first Indy hat looked much more like the one posted in the "my first fedora ...circa 1984" thread.

My 14 year old self is very jealous of your luck with your hat.

My 38 year old self is really happy for you and your hat.

Awesome looking hat you have there.

Your English is very good considering you rarely speak and type it. It is a real tribute to you that you are bilingual as where most Americans can't even speak or read one language very well. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Maciek101110,

That's a great-looking lid. It has a certain lived-in rawness to it. I live in Spain, can these hats be ordered via mail, internet? I've googled Almina to no avail...

Cheers!

This is Almina's e-mail info@almina.pl
You can send there message and take any questions, but I suggest you write in message "I write to leto73, I saw your fedora on Club OW forum (here link) from Maciek101110 topic" - then owner will know about that exactly.

If the price is about US$60.00 at the current abysmal exchange rate, it would be about the same as some other wool felt hats. I must do some research on the company. Do they make many other dress hats?

Pretty Cool

Really cool hat - better certainly than mine 'cause I don't even have one yet, and I'm a lot older than you. And great to see that Indy has fans around the world.

They do more women's hats, but they do IJ hats on your size and on wish.
If you want IJ hat from "Raiders" they do it, if you want "Last Crusade" they do it ....

If you have any questions abaut details, use Almina's E-mail Luke :D
