Tom,
I know you are right but every time I put it on and get ready to start out the door I have second thoughts and end up putting something else on :)
David,
Your Campdraft looks great in a diamond. I have several Campdrafts and always wet them down to shape them. It gives me more time to get the crease the way I want it than if I just steamed it. Like you mentioned, the felt does get nice and soft after wearing one for awhile.
Below is...
Jeff,
I saw that hat a few days ago and would have bid more than that on it myself if it were my size. I think you made a great deal. You can't buy a new production Open Road for that price. I hope you like it.
Tom,
The hat is beautiful! Tim did a fantastic job on it. It looks great and the fit is great too. I haven't had time to take any pictures of it but will try to. My photographic skills are pretty poor though and Tim's pictures are much better than anything I can take. All I have done to it...
Great looking hats everybody.
Gene, thanks for the info on your 7x. It looks great in the teardrop. I was wondering about your avatar and now I understand :)
Che, you definitely got the taco going on that hat! That brim would make Junior Brown jealous. I'm glad you like the hat band.
If you don't want to pay shipping from Australia then look at the Akubra Sydney from David Morgan Hats. It is the same hat as the Fedora from the Australian sites except it doesn't have a wind trolley. It comes open crown too. In my opinion, a much better hat than anything Stetson is putting out...
Rusty,
I'm in between a 7 3/8 and a 7 1/2. My Campdrafts are all 59's because they seem to run a little larger. I have a Fed IV in 60 though that fits nice. Both those in the picture are 59's.
I think every Campdraft brim is a little different. I didn't realize that silverbelly was 2 7/8"...
Rusty,
You're welcome. I've always been a wider brim type of guy but I really like the way this hat looks on me. I think it is the tall and straight crown that makes this shorter brim look so nice. My other 2 1/2" brim hats have shorter and more tapered crowns like a new production...
Here is mine next to an Akubra Campdraft in silverbelly. The brim on the silverbelly is actually 2 7/8" and the brim on the bluegrass green is 2 1/2".
The BG Campdraft is a great hat and I'm very pleased with it. Let's do this again in another color!
