Dinerman said:Remember, though, that in the 1930s, there were a variety of weaves and materials which boaters were made of. I have a '20s one which is fairly sof, though it is 3-ply. Garrett just sold one that's more like a milan type weave.
Torpedo said:I am aware of this; but in this pic of the real hat Dillinger wore that night, which fellow lounger Wolfmanjack shared in another thread, it looks (to me at least) like a classic stiff boater - the weave, the brim thickness and "sawtoothed" edge, even the kind of brim damage visible, seem to be consistent with that. I do not argue that hats like the one Depp wears are not accurate for the times portrayed, just that it seems to be inaccurate for that particular scene reenactment.
