: I just have to express my love for my new PeterBros fedora. I have been wearing it non-stop for a week now. It just looks so cool. I do wish I would have gone with the 5 1/2 inch crown instead of the 6. But even still it blows away everything else I have seen including the HJ. I have not seen the GW in person, but I can't see it being worth the price. The PB IS an Indiana Jones hat. With all the aggravation being experienced, it is very refreshing to deal with a company that not only takes pride in their work, but are also dedicated to getting-it-right. Joe jr & company are a shinning example of what can be done to provide Indy fans with THE gear. If you can't tell, I am really pleased with my fedora. Hats ON to Peter Bros!

Believe this is the 2nd time you have mentioned wishing for a shorter crown. I am really curious about this. Would you give me the height at the front pinch, and then the height at the sides. The reason I ask, is because my last PB was supposed to have a 5 3/4 to 5 7/8 open crown height. After Joe did the bashing I ended up with a fedora that is 5 3/8 on the sides, and this isn't too tall at all. My last Miller was 5 1/2 on the sides. I do agree with you on this fine hat. what I like about it is it comes ready to wear, with no mods neccessary. Regards, Fedora
