: I have weighed the consequences of this action

: 1. I know that HJ may shape and cut, have a taller crown than
: any Stetson, but is it worth 300?

: 2. I would rather have a 115.00+ hat than a 300 dollar hat; if I lose it it would not have been 300!

: Well, what is is what is and that's the way it is!!

: Regards; post your thoughts about this!

: INDY "will soon have his hat" Jones

Honestly, I would like to own a HJ fedora. You can be sure it is of the highest quality, and it is the name(crest) that is on the original Indy fedora. It certainly isn't the same hat, but it is a fedora, and it has that name. To some just the name is worth the price. Perhaps someday I will cough up the money and order one, but it will not be anytime soon. Especially since I have a Miller Indiana hopefully on the way. This hat appears to be a good match for the HJ used in some of the movies, and the price is right. And I do like the Biltmore name when it comes to hats. This company has been around for a long time. But in the end, if someone were to offer to give me my choice of hats, it would have to be the HJ. regards, Steve
