Seems Ive bumped in to somthing "Akubra" several times today.. Got to thinking I havent worn the old Stockman in a while... so on the head it goes!
This one had a couple rough spots on the brim edge when I picked it up... I trimmed it down to a 2-1/2" brim... Suits my sensibilities better than...
Curious if an older Akubra that is marked as 7-1/4 is the same or different than a US 7-1/4? ( the one I noticed did not have any cm size marking) It always seemed to me that an Akubra 59 was in between a Stetson 7-1/4// 7-3/8 for fit on my noggin
Performing a "scientific" physics experiment with my new round ice cube mold today. Doing destructive testing to see how it takes to melt with bourbon, cranberry juice, 1/2 a squeezed orange, simple syrup, and topped with an orange slice and a couple of cherries in the glass. If this works...

Happy Friday the Thirteenth to all! Looks like the rain is gone ( for a couple days at least) and it should be a sunny day after the fog burns off.
Reasonably cool this morning so I thought the slate grey Stetson/ Miller Imperial Ultimate out would be good today. Matches one of the Paradise...
For the sweatband logo, about all you can do is trim out the logo and save. Ive had good luck steaming liners over a hatblock or a ball and smoothing with the fingers. If the headliner cover is yellowed or "crinkly" You should be able to remove the celophane ( Gently pull it away from the liner...
Dreary damp day. figured Id better wear a light colored hat. The Knox 15 was nearby so it got the call today. This hat fits so well and is so soft that Im starting to NOT notice the moth nibbles. Love this hat
