    Hello, my question is, how much difference is between rabbit- and beaverfelt? I have got a custom rabbitfelt-hat, now thinking about getting the nearly same one in beaver. It only costs 20$ more. So, is a beaverfelt worthy to get a new hat like the one you already have?

    Possibility to reblock a Christy's Adventurer?

    Yes I heard that. I spoke to a german hatter, whos says, he wont block it, because of the thin felt. I don't give it a big chance. Best thing would be to have a Christy's Reblock Service.. It's just sad to see, that it tapers and tapers and nothing can be done. But it only costs 50€ (less $)...

    Possibility to reblock a Christy's Adventurer?

    Hello, I've got the questions, if it's possible for the hatters here in the forum to reblock a Christy's Adventurer. I love it so much, it's look just insane distressed, punshed, worn... But it also has got a lot of taper, especially in it's back. As far as I know, the felt is thin. It feels...

    Akubra sizes: true to the numbers?

    I just sent a mail to them, wrote, that I need a 60. It is ok for them. The service is the best. The only sad thing is, that in my mailcontact, I asked them about 3 times, what hatsize I should take for me as a 59. They said 59. But we'll see what the 60s bring. I'll write in here as soon as the...

    Akubra sizes: true to the numbers?

    Thank you all for your answers! It was too small. I know, taht, if a hat arrives,it`s cold and hard on the sweatband, it takes some hours to warm it up, then it feels much better. But this hat was.... like if you really feel that it`s too small. I didn`t even had it really on my head, because I...

    Akubra sizes: true to the numbers?

    I am really angry! Hello, I don`t know how to handle this situation. I ordered a FedIV 2 months ago, today it arrived (long terms because of production process) and it didn`t fit! I had to sent it back! I`ve got a Christys Adventurer, 59cm, fitting. An advintage-hat, 59cm, fitting. When I...

    Does the Akubra Squatter have a more tapered crown than the FedIV? Or other way: is the Squatter a straight sided hat? On some pics it looks like the crown has got a little taper backsides.

    Hey, I'm searching a specific Akubra, which I had years ago. It was called "Interpreter", or somehow like that. Did anyone hear of it? Or has a link? Or an idea? I really want to find it again, but no results in the www.

    Falcon Park Hattery

    To be more specific: I would choose the Standard Weight (Domestic) Felt (rabbit) because of it's price. I don't want to treat the hat like I would treat an Akubra, but .... well Christy's shrinks in with one raindrop. I'm thinking of sending FPH my Christy's to reblock it, but I'm not sure if...

    Falcon Park Hattery

    Hi, what about the durability of the rabbit-felt hats of FalconPark? Are they a little bit resistant against rain, or do they taper fast? I have got bad experiences with Christy's...

    Introducing my adVintage.

    Nice. I have chosen rabbit, because of the money. Therefore I have to say, that I bought my hat, when they only were at 189€ for rabbit. They became a little bit more expensive over time, but the techniques have become better and finer, too. Thats why I am so happy of my reblock, that they...

    Thank you! ;) Nice hat! Red liner? - Nice choice. I was thinking about it for times until I decided to get my liner golden. Cool to see different liners in that hat now!

    I've got a question: for me it's important on a hat, that the crown sides are not tapered. Not at the sides and not at front and back. The sides should parallel, if you look at them from front and from side. Now, I soon get a Fed IV Dlx, and I wonder if I can make a teardrop or diamond-...

    Ok, then it should be important for all to write down their hatsizes, right? Me, I'm a 59(cm). Don't know at the moment what it is in inches. 7 3/8? Or was this UK?!
