On a trip out of town a few months ago my three year old son lost his Indy hat! It was a cheap "official" one that I picked up at a gas station for fifteen bucks, so it wasn't a great monetary loss. Now his 4th birthday is coming up and his mom and I want to get him a replacement, but the gas station doesn't have any more. With a quick Google search I was able to come up with this: http://www.amazon.com/Indiana-Jones-Kin ... 858&sr=8-2

Does any one know anything about this hat? Keep in mind that it's for a four year old boy (in other words, I ain't lookin' for an AB or a Penman here).

Looks like it's probably a stiff wool hat. Perhaps not the best of the Dorfman quality, but if it's for a 4 year old, this would probably fit the bill perfectly.

I've got a youth large Dorfman official from Disneyland (looks like this). It may be a bit large for a 4 year old, but I'd send it your way for the cost of shipping.

Lost it? No! A 3 year old? Get out!

Just a bit of teasing from another parent.

That hat looks fine for a 4 year old.

I remember when I lost (brother actually destroyed) my first Indy-ish style hat when I was 5yr, I was devastated.

That should be a fine hat for your son.

Todd's costumes sells kids Indy dorfmans for around $50.00. Or at least he used to.

But for a 4 year old, a $15 hat should be perfect.

Check out amazon and look up Jaxson Hats. They have a couple of colors with black ribbon. The small size fit m 4 yr old perfectly. I think they were around $20. He liked it so much I got him a grey to go with the brown.

For those who don't remember Chewbacca Jones actually gave my (at the time 5 year old) a dorfman crushable...

He's 7 now and I just saw him run out the door with it on...

My kids have something _I_ don't even have: A hand made by mini-Adventurebilt hat from Steve Delk!

I just saw a childs Indy fedora on Amazon from Costume hub for $10.46 plus $3.63 s/h

Thanks to everyone for the replies.

JLee: Thanks for the offer. I'll keep it in mind.

Beaverlid: I've seen several hats for similar prices. In fact, I've found the exact replacement for the hat that was lost. For about $45. Not sure how I got one for $15 when everyone else sells them for so much more.

mcmanm: Thanks for the tip. I'll look into it.

Hey afterthedog, did you ever choose a lid for your son? I just ordered the Indiana Jones Crystal Skull hat from Amazon for my 4 year old son. It is almost hiking weather and we both wil need our lids, I will post pics once we get it.

Nah, I've been dragging my feet on it. His birthday is in a couple of weeks, so I have a little time. I'm mostly just trying to decide how much money to spend.

I almost got stuck without birthday gifts a few weeks ago on my son's birthday. I purchased a couple of Indiana Jones Lego sets online a few weeks before his party from a vendor that kept promising me they were coming, they never did show. Luckily I ordered them way in advance and had time to order from a different vendor - because the IJ legos was central to his birthday theme it was important I got them. He was very happy!

his kid lid should be in on the 5th...I think the cheap one for my boy is best...

Aww! That is so adorable!!!



Does this mean that I will soon be Mrs. Chewie?

Canyon, I can tell you that if my kid says yes then the answer is yes... I just asked him and he said yes!! He laughed to see that again.
