I agree that it is an awesome hat. Your pics really sealed the deal for me Indyclone25. I wish he still had the uptowner.

Great pic, is that todd's shirt? looks great! Any Indy fans from montreal? I'm looking for any kind of revolver that doesn't make me spend 200 dollars! I'm so desperate i'm thinking on buying the plastic one and paint it with metal and black... but just realized it looks like this: Uploaded with ImageShack.usUploaded with ImageShack.usSo forget about it! ehhehee

Actually the shirt is Wested, I was thinking about ordering a Todd's shirt and dying it, but I am still working on getting a full set of gear before getting extras of stuff I already have. I need a Raiders holster and gun and a good pair of pants first.

From a guy who now has 7 Todd's shirts, believe me when I say they will lighten up with repeated washings, to a very neat "stone-esque" color, with just a touch of tan.

Todd's use to sell one like this, and a guy did a pretty good modification thread over at COW: www.airsofttitan.com/ug131.html

Patch. Your hat looks GREAT!!! My only suggestion is to tighten that front crease a little. But that's just personal preference IndyClone: Make sure to post some pics when you get your new one. I'd really like to know how the new ribbon differs from the old before I buy another one.

Another question, i'm planning on buying another hat from Todd's.
How do you like the Official Indiana Jones Brand Fur Felt Hat compared to the Downtowner?? I see is more expensive but doesn't look Riders enough to me...
Does anyone own one?
thanks! Sal

the hat you are looking at is the dorfman hat , it was an ok hat (it was my first hat i bought since 1984) and it was nice enough it is stiff and i had to wet down the crease in the middle to get it to look more like a indy hat.and after i was done it did look like the temple of doom style , but it has the teardrop look to the top of the hat. plus the leather sweatband began to warp after a summer of using it. so if you want a better hat i would say go with the downtowner . here is a pic of me in my dorfman

Cool ! Just turn the hat to center the pinch...it will give you "the Raiders turn" bash ! ... OOps too late, I've just seen in the previous post that you're already re-working the pinch.

LOVE that hat. The new ribbon does look a fair amount darker, but that could be the pics.
How would YOU compare the ribbons IndyClone?

How would YOU compare the ribbons IndyClone? to me the new downtowner ribbon are a tad darker , i was hoping for a close enough to black ribbon , but maybe that's just me .but all in all i was pleased with the new lower crown downtowner ( my wife sure was) i have the pinch moved more to the center now . and i am happy with that .
