Hello everyone! This is my another Fedoraiders SOC hat, made with a Judith felt. I distress this hat like as Deborah Nadoolman told on the Making of Raider of the Lost Ark but me, i put my hat in my pocket for this video. My video finish like my favorite scene in Raiders.

Deborah Nadoolman, i love you for your good hat choice in Raiders!

Thanks for looking!

Jason

hat in a pocket! wow I've never seen that before
looks cool thanks for the video. The hat in the picture you posted looks identical to the scene when Indy is hanging off the Mercedes truck, you know which one I mean?

Aaaaagggghhhh!

I want one of those hats of yours SO bad it HURTS!

Jason, I am a huge fan of yours, my friend!

And if I get my way, I'm going to make sure that the phrase "That's my fedora in my pocket" catches on around here.

You're awesome, pal!
Brimming over with "the spirit of Indy"...

Cheers!
Mitch

Cracking looking lid my friend. Good work

Hey Fox, is that a fedora in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?

Awww Dave...
Shucks.

If Jason ever lets me buy one of his Custom (or Used) "Fedoraiders" Hats, there'll be a hat in my pocket AND I'll be glad to see ya!

Glad to hear it...just keep a foot of distance, my friend.

I agree with the above statement. The hat you posted, Jason, looks more like the one in the chase scene than the SoC hat. The Cairo hat has this huge bulge on the right side. You can clearly see the ribbon bulging and then the top of the hat bulge as well. It is a very interesting affect and one that, I think, cannot be reproduced without much difficulty. If you can get the aht to bulge like that, I think you will have a very close replica.

What I like the best about this is that this is how Indy would have naturally distressed his hats. A world traveler that he is, you just know he crammed that hat into a pocket, or suitcase, or MK VII bag, or something. I think thats why the Raiders hat is so attractive to a lot of us, the distressing represents a lifestyle of which most of us are very jealous of! Sure the other hats are dusty and slightly rumpled but the Raiders hat has been rode hard and put up wet...many, many times.

Thank you guys!

You are right Travis. The last year, i'm went in vacation to Disney World with my family and often, i put my Fédération in my back pocket jean or in my Indy bag beacause, it's too hot to kept the hat 12 hours or because the rain.

You are right Dave when you tell ( The hat you posted, Jason, looks more like the one in the chase scene than the SoC hat. The Cairo hat has this huge bulge on the right side. )

Before putting my hat in my pocket, my hat has a bulge ( look the picture ) but after putting in my pocket, the bulge is not visible. It,s very hard treatment for a felt hat, lol.

Wooow! The hat looks very great! Awesome! Great job, Fedoraiders.

That hat looks fantastic. I don't see the reverse taper I noticed before, maybe because the camera is further away. You don't see many videos here, even though it's the only honest way to evaluate a hat, and that's clearly a great SOC.

The Lid Looks just like the the one on cover of the Indy Dvd Trilogy...Awesome
