: Just tell them you want the Indy version of the "Poet" model hat they sell, and specify that you want the Raiders style crease. They will then ask you all the particulars (make sure you ask them for some felt sizing pads-they help the hat fit better at first and will help it fit even after a particularly short haircut). They'll even monogram your initials in gold ink inside the hat band! A very nice touch. One thing you should invest in as well is a hat stretcher. One such stretcher "The Hat Jack" can be bought from David Morgan (the whip maker), and they help your hat retain its size when you aren't wearing it, especially after it gets wet.
