Crush Cap as Daily Wear?
Was looking at those too. I like them, but they have a "puffier" look. The caps in King Kong above I really like, but can't figure out what they are-maybe just made for the movie. -
Crush Cap as Daily Wear?
LOL! There's a sort of Frank Zappa vibe to that photo! Regarding confidence, yeah, that's the thing-with most headware outside of a baseball cap! People today are so ignorant that a fedora gets you labeled "Indiana Jones". Heck, I have gotten the "Indy" comment wearing a straw fedora with... -
Crush Cap as Daily Wear?
I wouldn't wear an original. Was looking at the US Wings crusher cap. They seem to be fine. But perhaps you, or someone else, may know something about that maker which is not optimal. I figure, since this will not be for reenacting, but just as a cap, the US Wings one may be fine. Have also... -
Crush Cap as Daily Wear?
Howdy! I have always had a love of The Flying Tigers: the P40, the leather jackets, the crush caps... (yeah I know they wore the leather helmet/cap to fly...) I have Tales of the Gold Monkey DVD set and still watch it.... I have thought of wearing a khaki crush cap as a daily cap in the summer... -
Crushable Fedora Shape Help!
I agree. I have an Akubra Territory purchased over ten years ago or so. It's been crushed, stepped on, sat on, disappeared under some boxes while moving... damn thing still is in good shape! I just need to do something to stiffen the brim a little, since it's gotten a bit soft. Also, it stayed... -

Crushable Fedora Shape Help!
Dorfman hasn't gotten back to me. No big deal. I cut a few of the stitches at the back of the brim fold, cut the insert, and pulled it out. Looks to be the same as a heavy fishing line. Was easy to slip back in by just pushing it. I did pull it back out and left it out. I think the hat... -
Crushable Fedora Shape Help!
Thank you. My hat is new and the problem is with the original, out of the box shape. They did a modern cowboy hat style to the brim, which I detest. This is the second time this happens. I returned another hat due to the ridiculous brim shape and ordered the Indiana Jones one because it was on... -
Crushable Fedora Shape Help!
Hello! I can't find this having already been addressed, so here goes: I bought a Dorfman Pacific Indiana Jones fedora as a beater hat-something I can wear doing yardwork, going off road, etc. The brim shape/rake is really bothering me. They have the brim shaped too exaggerated-more like a... -
How NOT to look like Indiana Jones?!
Depending on where you live, people have different degrees of idiocy. I had an uncle who often wore brown slack, leather boots, dark brown leather jacket, red buffalo plaid shirt, and a brown fedora. I always loved that look. This was in NY in the 70s, so it wasn't too uncommon. Living in...
