    I love the Fed IV!!

    My advice is go with Moonstone. It is one versatile color. From all comments I've read, Carbon Grey is very dark. I have Moonstone in my customized Fed4 as well as a Campdraft Deluxe = one color that I don't mind having in multiple styles...

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    This retraction feature is a good point. I'm not sure posting a bid out in the open has the effect some are reading into it. If you don't know snipers are waiting on every listing that you are interested in, then you're not paying much attention...Max bid is max bid or it's not...JMHO

    Rodney Ammons Custom Ostrich Cowboy Boots size 9-1/2 D

    Thanks Mike. I have a pair of Justin Super Ropers in smooth ostrich that look so similar in shape to these, almost same color too. I have boots from 9 to 10D, depending on the maker & the toe. Sounds like these are in my sweet spot.

    Since my son turned 15 about 8 years ago, I've ride mostly in the back seat. I like it back there...feel like I have a driver plus there is room for my hat on the seat next to me...

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    I do the same thing natively in the eBay site. How does clandestine sniper tools change it? I'm not going to have a different max with sniper or w/out. Max bid is max bid. The rest is just perception. I know snipers are there...

    Akubra Campdraft

    Wind trollies tighten around the crown by sliding the button backward, if it is properly looped. No need to stitch or remove. I have 5 CD's & all work the same plus a few vintage that act the same. They are a personal taste thing as well.

    Fedora Lounge Edition {Everything Australian } Akubra Camp Draft 2 5/8s brim

    Looking sharp! I'd drop the back a touch more to get more "tugboat" profile but that's just my preference...wear it in good health.

    Akubra Campdraft Question

    I think Open Roads got stiffer thru the years. I had a pristine vintage one that was every bit as flexible as a new CD. Also, I think that Akubra adjusted the crown height of the CD. I have never seen a vintage OR with a crown over 5 1/2".
