The best Indiana Jones-style hat!, November 23, 2008
I previously ordered an Indiana Jones branded hat from another source, and it had the three inch brim. It looked more like a cowboy hat than an Indiana Jones hat. I then ordered the Dorfman brand hat on Amazon with the 2 1/2 inch brim, and it looks super! What a difference taking 1/2 inch off the brim makes! It looks exactly like the ones in the movies.
Buyer should know that this hat is NOT soft and flexible! In fact it is quite hard, and can be creased and made to look awful if sat upon or otherwise crushed. If you are responsible enough to take care of a fine, quality hat, this is the one you want, because it looks SHARP, even dressy. I get compliments all the time, and hear even more from people who don't necessarily mean for me to hear their comments.
If you just love the Indy look like I do, but don't want a cheap-looking floppy hat, This is the one you want. You won't be sorry.
Huge heads run in my family, and hats that fit me are extremely hard to find. I usually have to wet and stretch hats to make them fit comfortably. These hats by Dorfman are available in sizes all the way up to XXXL, and you can link to a sizing chart from the ad page to determine your exact requirement. Awesome! The XXL fit My size 7 7/8 head perfectly! If you've been thinking of getting an Indy hat, I recommend this one for extreme good looks and quality construction.

Accurate sizing information would have been helpful, June 5, 2009
This review is from: Indiana Jones Men's Wool Felt Fedora (Apparel)
While this is a quality hat at a great price, I am having extreme difficulty finding the correct size. The sizing information linked from the ordering page DOES NOT containg a Hat Sizing Chart. Using the sizing chart at the Dorfman company web site, I was led to believe that a Small would fit me. After receving the hat, it was clear that this sizing chart was VERY wrong, I couldn't even pull the hat over my head.
I decided to return the hat immediately (still waiting for that refund Amazon!) and order a Large, figuring that skipping up two sizes would take care of the discrepancy. The Large hat too did not fit me.. it's much closer, but still uncomfortable to wear.
Today I processed my second return in attempt to purchase a hat that fits me. I will order the XX Large as my last resort. I don't have a gargantuan cranium, I'm pretty average in stature. So I think it's safe to say that these hats run a bit on the small side.. info that the previous reviewer omitted in their endorsement.
I can't help but think that this unfortunate experience could have easily been avoided if an accurate sizing chart was actually provided on the ordering page, or at the manufacturer's website.

Looks great, doesn't fit, June 7, 2009
This hat looks perfect. But I measured my head according to the size chart and ordered the nearest one, a Medium. Even allowing for the fact that the hat is fairly rigid, it was too small. So I returned it (at my expense)and got the next size larger, a Large. It was too big and would blow right off. Returned that one and Amazon was generous in crediting me for the return postage.
I still like the look but my size, apparently, doesn't work with this style hat. I later found another one that looks exactly the same in a retail store in a Large and it fits perfectly. So beware. If your size is between sizes, don't order this hat.
