Thread: Blues Brothers HATS?

Tweet

Does anyone know where I can get a good quality fedora like the ones the Blues Brothers wore? I have seen all the 10-15 dollar ones at costume shops, but I want to wear this more then just Halloween. It would also be great if someone knows the name of the company that made the hats for the original movie. Thanks so much for any help!

Hi YardHauntJunkie, have you tried the various hat company's on the internet, Hats In The Belfry is an awesome store with some quality hats for both men and women and the prices are reasonable. Also, have you tried searching for the BB Fedora Hat on ebay? You just never know, maybe there's reproductions of them, you'd think there would be, they were very popular. Well I'll see if this link for Hats in the Belfry will post for you, if not just google it

Hope maybe one of these sites will be of some value to you

Mens Hats is a sponsor of the Fedora Lounge and has a wide selection of fedoras. You can also look for a hat seller locally and they should be able to make the necessary adjustments.

You could try asking at the Fedora Lounge and see if anyone knows what brand was used in the film.

I had no idea how many different types of fedoras there are. Thanks for the tips!!!

You want a good cheap one that looks just right. Burlington coat factory has a very good selection normally.
