: This is a rather simple question. Besides the Herbert Johnson fedora, which (in the opinion of the reader) is the closest, moderately priced hat(i.e. Stetson, Biltmore, Worth&Worth etc.) that could be bought in a large quantity, that could pass for an HJ or the one from the films? Any help is much needed and appreciated!

I agree with Michaelson. The Stetson Nostalgia (or Soveriegn) is the best substitute. It is mink brown, which makes it look like the weathered Herbert Johnson't used in the films. Also the crown is high.I would not worry too much about the dimensional brim cut since when you style the hat in "Indy" style (with the sides of the brim somewhat curved up) you cannot tell if the brim is dimensionally cut or not.
