Contributing Member fredk Posted January 6, 2022 Contributing Member Report Posted January 6, 2022 My main hat looks like the one in your first picture but I want to make one like your second picture I bought a pattern from dieselpunk for an 'Indiana Jones Style' hat a few years ago Quote Al speling misteaks aer all mi own werk..

It's a bit discoloured now. Might have to dye it. Quote

Members HandyDave Posted January 9, 2022 Members Report Posted January 9, 2022 Ive been wanting to make me a leather hat for awhile i just havent done it yet. I keep thinking it would be a very hot wearing hat. How do they feel and wear on hot days. I would add a couple grommets to the sides to help with a little air flow. But it doesnt hurt to hear some feedback from guys who have made and worn leather hats. Thank you guys. Quote
Members Bert03241 Posted January 9, 2022 Members Report Posted January 9, 2022 Yea their definitely a fall or winter hat, hot in the summer for sure Quote
