I've never being happy with my hat as the brim was not wide enough and the crown was only 4 1/2 inches high and tapered,plus it was a bit dark colour wise but the other week I found this one on EBay for only £20:00 the brim is 2.75 inches and the crown is a high straight at 5 1/2 inches, which I'm sure is Indy's hat sizes colour good too but wrong style as you can see in the first two photos so I removed the edging strip from around the brim and used the vegetable steamer to reshape it and because Indy's changed in style over the movie's i went with a combination of styles,including the classic Raiders style front pinch i then aged and weathered it as I wanted that used look including the inside lining too and as it's my own and never going to be sold i found the Herbert Johnson logo on line and made my own label and the large one for inside the hat for that authentic look and I'm happy with how it turned out.
