The Official Fedora Chronicles Vendors List!
Updated June 8th, 2019

This is a work in progress. This is not a complete list of all the vendors since there are constantly new ones popping up all over the globe and others fading away before shuttering their doors.

Also, there are some vendors that will never be on this list because of their prior behavior such as rude treatment of their customers or their products don’t live up to our standards. But there are vendors listed here with a mere link and banner since we have nothing else to share; for now they merely exist and we need you to tell us what you think of them.

This is where you come in, fellow Retronaut! You need to share with us your experience with these vendors, and you need to keep sending us links to new ones that spring up! And if you’re a vendor – let us know! Get in touch with us so we can get to know you via a spot on this page and an interview in a podcast.

Trinity Whip Company: Blake Bruning has been a whip enthusiast for over a decade. He spends his work days making whips and his evenings teaching Martial Arts.  Permanently residing in Indiana and happily married with 3 daughters, he is always grateful to Jesus Christ for each and every day.


Landron Artifacts: Al Landron is pioneering a brand-new frontier of fandom and collecting: Set decoration reproductions. Landron Artifacts is the premiere location to purchase wall reliefs that are inspired from the temple cave carvings seen in Raiders of The Lost Ark, pedestals and stands for prop replicas. Be sure to start your collection from his growing line of Cthulhu artifacts, too.

Al Landron also has several prints of his phenomenal art work that’s reminiscent of early H.R. Geiger and traditional Gothic horror.

All of Al Landron’s products are guaranteed to impress fellow fans, make other Indiana Jones fans jealous, and ward-off unwanted in-laws. When you see these products for the first time, you realize that it’s something you’ve always wanted but could never express into words.

Check out Landron Artifacts, but be warned – after getting one you’ll have to get them all.”

Hufvud Custom Hatmaker:

"It all began when I couldn't find the type of hat I was looking for. I wanted something taller and an interior that was mixed with leather and silk. I wanted to wear a hat that told a story. My story.

Hats don't just create a look they protect our health from cold and wind. A well made hat will stay on your head and a sweatband will cushion your head from wear. The deer skin leather from Scandinavia comes from reindeer that are regulated every year in order to maintain a balance between nature and animal. Same goes for our fur felt which only comes from respectable and sustainable felt makers in Europe.

I have heard stories of hats being found from over 100 years ago which still are as vibrant as the first day they were made. This is the change I want to see in the world, for us to make use of items we don't have to throw away but to keep for next generation. A hat also becomes someones personality that will live on, long after they are gone. Hats made for a legend.

Every material I purchase will be used. Scrap leather will turn into other items. Parts of the felt that are cut off can be preserved for other items as well. Nothing gets thrown away. If there is a mistake made in a hat, it will either be converted to another style or Iwill find a use for it.

Same goes for the shipping boxes. Everything made locally with no, or limited, use of plastic.

Now, have a seat, and tell me your story."

Steel And Jones

Steele And Jones - Argentina

We are Roberto (Architect) and Diego (Travel Agent), both fans of the Indiana Jones character. We work and live in Argentina. We are not professional hatmakers, but a couple of friends which make this as a hobby, just for the fun, and the knowledge we acquire through our own experience in the making.

Our goal is to offer the best possible products at the most reasonable price, that should be high quality and also long lasting pieces of gear.

We started enjoying this hobby in 2006 through the ‘Comunidad Fan Española de Indiana Jones’ Forum, trying to make hats that look like those seen in the movies, but that should also be durable and offered at the lowest price possible. Since then, the “Explorador” fedora has been our best seller, which has been improved along time thanks to the help of many members of the Spanish Indy Forum, having hundreds of satisfied customers both in Europe and America.

 

 

: Klassische & Indy Fedora Hüte - Handgemacht in Deutschland: "Everything I do to create your Fedora hat, from blocking over sewing and sewing in each trimming to shaping it, is completely done by hand. The best materials and the knowledge of processes of hatmaking mostly forgotten today ensure the high quality for this premium product."

Wested Leather Co."Once upon a time in the land of Kent, a man called Peter Botwright made the decision to create his own leather specialist firm and over 30 years later the company still stands as strong as ever. Originally the brand was called “Leather Concessionaires” but this changed when they moved into Wested Lane, in which the Wested Leather you know and love was truly built. This family run company tries their hardest to keep at least 90% of their products made in England, either within the factory/shop in Swanley, Kent or the factory within the heart of London.

The company itself made their success by creating the first of the Indiana Jones jackets for Harrison Ford, along with many other film costumes over the years. The wonderful internet made it possible for Wested to create replica jackets and sell them to the public, whilst keeping the shop in Kent open for those lucky few in the UK close enough to visit. However soon enough the internet wasn’t enough and people were flying from the USA, Australia and more to see the shop that was full of their favourite TV & film jackets."

Peter Botwright is THE MAN behind the origianl jacket from "Raiders Of The Lost Ark" and countless other iconic jackets from other films. With the expansion of their website and store they're now able to offer more than just replicas of the jackets. Mr. Botwright and Co. have expaned their Dr. Jones line to include their very own variations of the Indy shirt, trousers/pants, leather strap for gas bag, and the original bags themselves.

Wested also offers The Super Combo - jacket, shirt, pants, belt, whip... and a pen.
