Looking fer a good Leather Tricorn Hat


Silent

Recommended Posts

It's not as difficult as one might think to make your own.

I cheated and didn't sew a stitch on mine. the brim and the crown are seperate parts and I used contact cement to join them.

The crown was soaked and then stretched over a form (I used a plastic construction helmet). That way you don't end up with one of the ones that's shaped from a cowbow hat. :D

You can make a pattern out of paper for the brim to get the exact shape you want first, then cut the leather.

There's an ok shot of mine from the top here:

It's not perfect but I was in a hurry or drunk I can't remember which, maybe both :D

Good price on those hats,thanks for the site, Gentleman of Fortune.

Ok my bitch...why does just about everyone have to have a hat like in POTC? Why do people have to look, act, dress, have similar names, or are 'family' of the Sparrow name?

Can't you people come up with something more original? ko.gif

I've always liked the look of the hat (Before the movie was out), I could careless who the hell wairs it.
