    Akubra Bushman Color suggestions

    I have both Bushmans, Nullarbor Tan & Moonstone. I bought the original then they came out with Moonstone. Had the Moonstone been out first, I never would have the Nullarbor Tan one. I have Campdrafts in both Moonstone & Glen Grey. The GG is in a box & gets no noggin time at all. The Moonstone...

    some general hat info that I have been afraid to ask

    What is your favorite hat crease?

    I like the look of a hand blocked crease, so much more character than pressed in factory = too sterile. I also like the Montana Slope Gus cause they seem to morph with use. For a teardrop/tycoon, I like a front to rear rake = tugboat profile over a flat one. JMHO Good work...

    HAT ADORNMENTS: ribbons, bows, pins, pugs, leather, etc.

    I have a hat hook with ribbon, leather, felt & leather bands that get slipped on & off lids as mood strikes. Keep SWMBO off balance on whether I got a new hat or just another band or both!

    Stetson 6X versus Akubra Heritage collection

    6X Stetson is a western weight body where Heritage by Akubra is a dress weight body. I'm sitting here with a 6X silverbelly Stetson western hat & a Campdraft Deluxe. The CD Deluxe is smoother finished, lighter weigh (stated above), denser felt, softer to the touch & more easily shaped, brim &...
