New Hat Just Arrived

[ortega76]

Just arrived from The Fedora Store, a vintage Darwin. I truly love the color, a bit of a gray/brown that is unusual enough to work with my heavily earth-toned wardrobe. I got home late last night from work to find a package for me on the kitchen table. Talk about a pleasant surprise!

This is going to replace my wool diamond crown as my day-to-day lid. Hey, you can't beat the price- it was under $40 with shipping! Thanks for the great service and great hat. I have a list of hats I'll be picking up between now and Christmas. Most of those will be at The Fedora Store!

Very nice pickup. Enjoy

Love it!

I'd like to see what it looks like with the brim snapped down. (I know you favor turned up, but this one looks as if it wants it down: what with the formal trim...)

Love the hat. Nice Bow on it. Its a shame The Fedora Store does not seem to have 7 1/2 hat size show up often in the vintage area. I guess I will have to keep looking.

Ortega, next time your up around Chicago or Gurnee, let me know. We'll have a beer and compare hats.

Or have a hat and compare beers?

lol , yeah especially after a couple of beers!

Same goes for you in Champaign. This town spoils you for beer. My favorite dive has almost 100 choices between on-tap and bottle offerings.

Sounds good my friend. I occaisionally travel through on my way to Dixon, MO where my buddy makes our hat racks. I will contact you in advance if I ever plan a trip instead of just running when biz slows down.

Ortega, a class lid indeed. Looks a bit more grey than brown from the pictures, but clearly a nice color!

You’re on the wrong forum for that comment. It belongs over on COW (some of you know what I’m talking about).lol

Looks Good, any idea of the age?

 

[ortega76]

You'd have to ask Duane. I'm really not certain. It's beautiful. If it weren't 95 today, I'd be wearing it. As it is, I'll be sporting it for dinner and drinks tonight.

And it's ongoing discussion of whether the hat Indy wore on Clipper plane was gray or brown.

I believe that question has been solved.

 

[indyjim]

Really? I haven't been over there for a while. Well, I stop in briefly, but I haven't had a chance to read all the threads, especially the long ones. What was the verdict?

 

[Feraud]

The current answer is no grey hats were made for Harrison Ford for the production of Raiders of the Lost Ark. Brown wins this round.

While I respect the folks who have their own preferences (and sometimes obsessions), that's one I don't share.

Also, I'm sure that there's some history behind an Indiana Jones-oriented site having a name that relates to Star Wars.
