I have nothing to do with this company other than I was a customer once a couple of years ago. But I stumbled on it and thought it might be of interest. I hope it is ok to post.

More than ok Jimmy!

The questions is, to get it in a child's (Short Round's) size or my own? I don't plan on wearing it.

How was your experience with them?

Got my order placed. Ended up getting one in my size anyway.

Collectors have been trying to find these for a long time. I tired relentlessly about a year ago to find one without luck.

Thanks again Jimmy!

Great find! So many confuse Shorty's hat with a "Yankee" cap. Thanks for sharing!!! May have to consider this....

Jay, my experience was very very good. If you are uncertain about size call Glenn. He will get back to you. A fine gentelman and pleasure to do buissiness with.
And glad that i could help with this. It's not something I'm likely to buy, but I know a lot of you like to collect anything Indy related.

When I first saw the movie as a kid I thought, "No, that's a Mets cap." Not realizing that there were no Mets in 1935.

And then I later learned the Mets' uniform is meant to reflect the Brooklyn Dodgers and NY Giants, both of which left for California, so they took the Giants logo and made it theirs.

That's awesome. Its not for me buts its great that some voids have been filled in peoples collections. I think I would have went with a kids size. But then again if you don't know Shortrounds size what's the point of accuracy.

That's the one thing that was bothering me Fiend. I was originally going to get the smallest/ child's size. Worth a shot in the dark right? But then one of the only ways to tell is if somebody looked at the one(s) (supposedly) in the Lucasfilm Archives and check. And that's IF the tag was still on it.

I said screw it, and ordered it in my size. Might as well enjoy the throwback.

I ordered one in my size, and one for my 11 year old son who is about Short Round's size.

Nice find for the collectors out there!!

Ordered mine... disappointed. They made the color of the short round cap in the movie screen shot darker and the actual cap they send is darker than what is pictured. So when you compare the normal screen shot color which is a lot lighter and the actual cap color you get which is much darker... there is a HUGE difference. I guess it is better than nothing but I have buyers remorse. I think the pics they show paint a very misleading picture for Indy collectors wanting a near screen accurate colored cap... shame on them in my opinion.
