Fedoras in Public Enemies Made by Optimo Hats
The fedoras used in Michael Mann's Public Enemies starring Johnny Depp as John Dillinger were made by Optimo Hats in Chicago. All Plaidout reports that the hat company made 75 hats for the movie, plus several for Johnny Depp.
When Graham Thompson of Chicago’s Optimo Hats was approached by costumer Colleen Atwood to provide headwear for the films’ leads, Mr. Thompson came armed with books filled with period photos of men sporting high-crowned, short-brimmed fedoras.
"... but she and her team, they were ready. They did their homework."
Thompson made 75 hats for the film and several additional fedoras for Mr. Depp, "a real hat guy," he's quick to differentiate. "There are hat people and there are not hat people..."
The All Plaidout post has lots of interesting photos from Optimo's factory.
