Hi everyone,
I've been lurking for the last 2 weeks or so and have learned a lot from reading threads around the fourms.
Well, it all started 2 weeks ago when we (wife, kids and I) went to see IJ (of course). I made the comment to my wife "I really want that hat", who doesn't right? But I meant as a joke more than anything else, only because I never thought she would get one for me. Well, she knows that I have been wanting to wears hats for a long time I've just never bought one. So her and my daughter thought that would be a great FD gift. So tonight (I know, it's not Fathers Day yet) they presented me with a Scala Indiana Jones Fedora.
It's not a Fed IV, but it really is a very nice hat. A little big on the sides (I guess I'm a bit of a long oval), but nothing a little sizing tape can't take care of.
Best of all she's already mentioned looking around on Ebay to see what we can find since she knows that I would like more than one hat. I think she may be waiting to see if I will really wear it out side and when I go to work. I have news for her I'm really going to. You'd think she would know after 18 years (i'm 45 by the way) that I really don't care what others think (except for her....maybe lol ).
Sorry I don't have a way to post pics at the moment, but as soon as I can I will.
