Orders for my handmade Fedora hats will be possible again in the first week of January. Harrison Fedora hats are in stock and ready to ship.
Hats from the adVintage MasterPiece range are hand-blocked in a special process that is very time-consuming, which makes the felt even more stable (pre-aging). I learned this technique from Marc Kitter, the hat maker of the original Indiana Jones hat from the 4th movie (Adventurebilt Deluxe). 

From blocking the handmade rawbody to sewing and sewing in all the hat details to shaping the fedora, I do everything by hand as a milliner. Together with the best materials, this results in a premium product that is in no way comparable to the hats that are produced today. Here you can still experience the quality of craftsmanship from times gone by. 

Features of an adVintage MasterPiece Fedora hat:

  • 100% beaver felt in the best quality - Made in Portugal 
  • hand-blocked, wet-blocked and hot-ironed for maximum durability
  • pre-aged felt for additional stabilization of the shape
  • extra finely sanded felt for an velvety surface
  • double moisture barrier (in the felt and on the surface)
  • sweatbands sewn to the back for invisible seams 
  • crown height and brim width adapted to hat size 
  • 100% handmade for maximum possible customization (included)
Clipper Fedora Hat - MasterPiece Version made of 100% beaver felt
The Clipper Fedora is a slightly different version of the Raider Fedora. It has a wider ribbon (choice of customer) and no Raiders Turn. The most important thing about the Clipper is the right color. In one film scene the hat looks more "grey-beige", in another more "steel-grey". With my "smoke-grey" color I have found a felt that shows exactly this colour spectrum under different light conditions. I know that there are different opinions regarding this special hat, so I also offer the Clipper in other greys and / or with 38mm or 45mm wide ribbon.  Everything I do to create your Fedora hat, from blocking over sewing and shaping, is completely done by hand. This Fedora will be made to order exclusively for you. This fedora will be handcrafted for you on order. The delivery time consists of a lead time (other orders ahead), production (about 10-14 days) and shipping (Germany about 3 days, Europe about 4-7 days, other countries about 20-30 Days).

Crusader Fedora hat - MasterPiece Version made of 100% beaver felt
The "Holy Grail" of Fedora hats, that's the Crusader from the 3rd movie. Its shape is a kind of "in-between stage" of the Raider and the Temple Fedora. It has a high crown, but a slightly softer front part and deep side dents. It comes in different Sable (brown) colors and I'm happy to shape it to your favorite film scene.

CS Hero MasterPiece Fedora Hat - 100% beaver felt / 100x
The CS Hero Fedora Hat is indeed something very special, because it is an exact copy of the hat used in the fourth movie. How is that possible? Thanks to Marc Kitter, the creator of the original Fedora hat worn by Harrison Ford in the 4th movie adventure. Back then Marc and his business partner Steve Delk (known as Adventurebilt / Deluxe) had made the hats for the movie absolutely by hand. Since Marc changed his career and left hat making behind, he not only left me, to my greatest gratitude, the original hat blocks on which the film hat was blocked, I also received insight into Marc's special techniques of hat making and know-how about the materials used.So it is possible that the adVintage CS Hero Fedora can be recreated on the original hat blocks, using the exact beaver felt (texture, special features and color) and using Marc's special hat making techniques. Even the hat lining and sweatband bow are absolutely screen accurate. However, please note that this hat is still made under the "adVintage" brand and with an adVintage sweatband made of the best cowhide leather in the correct color. With your CS Hero Fedora you will receive a numbered certificate of authenticity. A hat box is unfortunately not included any more due to higher buying prices.About twice as many working hours go into a CS Hero Fedora as into a "normal" handmade adVintage hat made of 100% beaver felt. In addition, I have some materials specially made for this, hence the price difference.We will discuss the exact hat size and any special requests via eMail as soon as I have received your order. This fedora will be handcrafted for you on order. The delivery time consists of  a lead time (other orders ahead), production (about 10-14 days) and shipping (Germany about 3 days, Europe about 4-7 days, other countries about 20-30 Days).

Destiny Fedora hat - MasterPiece Version made of 100% beaver felt
The MasterPiece Version of the Destiny Fedora hat is handmade from 100% best beaver felt in the felt color "Sable 23". As a "Screen Edition" I tried to recreate the look of the hat as seen on screen (especially in the scenes in Italy and Morocco). This means that the hat comes with a slightly different brim, which is curved at the sides and falls down slightly at the back. The grosgrain ribbon is slightly darker, as in the movie, but reflects warm light quite well. The crown is straight at the sides and becomes slightly narrower towards the top, and does not become wider here. The hat bow also has a slight "Flying V" form.Everything I do to create your Fedora hat, from blocking over sewing and shaping, is completely done by hand. This Fedora will be made to order exclusively for you. I will ask for your exact head circumference by email after your order and will be happy to help you determine it.
