In Reply to: A little documentation on the Raiders hat specs... posted by Patterson on December 08, 2000 at 11:38:46:
: This little gem showed up in my mailbox from one of our intrepid Indyfans out there. Nice work!
: FYI - these are the specs I supplied Joe Peters for my fedora, size 7 5/8. I may have to rethink the proportionality of that - 6 1/4 on the crown, 3 on the fron and back, 2 7/8 on the sides, 1.75 inch ribbon? Hey, and excuse for anther PB!
: Cheers!

Same specs I gave Joe back in June, except I asked for crown height to be 5 7/8-6 inches and he made it 5 7/8. I'm satisfied with the porportions on mine, though. By the way, on the HJ coat of arms, is that a stag or what on the shield? And does it say "since 1849" under "hatters"? It would seem to me that you should be able to get the "Raiders" look with those dimensions, unless the crown isn't as square as it should be.
