    I love the Fed IV!!

    I’m not holding my breath either, it would likely be a specialty item they wouldn’t sell too many of. FWIW the navy Stylemaster is darker than the hat you’re “wearing” in your photo. Here’s a photo from the Hattery’s Instagram page (I assume it’s ok to post this...)...

    I love the Fed IV!!

    I have a Stylemaster in navy, and I have to think that the Fed IV would look great in that color. I’m just sayin’.

    Stetson Open Road vs Akubra Campdraft

    Yes, it would be unfortunate if someone got confused and tried to make a shaving brush out of your beard.

    What happened to Bencraft?

    Yes, I know. But the email got bounced as an invalid address. In any event, the good news is that they are still around. I had previously tried to call the number listed on their Facebook page and never got anyone, but it turns out that number is for the Williamsburg location that closed a...

    What happened to Bencraft?

    Are they out of business? Their website is down and my email to them got bounced back. I guess I’m not getting that Borsalino Film after all. :(

    You’re probably right with regard to the hats’ respective dimensions, but something about the “Indy” bash for the Adventurer they show on the DM website just doesn’t look quite right to me. I watched a scene from Raiders the other day and I just don’t see it. Maybe it’s just the way they...

    Thanks. I like your bash better than the Indy-type look DM shows on their website. (To me, the Fed IV seems closer to the Indy look than the DM Adventurer, FWIW.)

    Anyone out there have any photos of the David Morgan Adventuter in Moonstone? There is one on their website but it’s literally the only one I’ve been able to find. Thanks.

    I believe charcoal is the same as graphite grey, which is darker than carbon gray.

    Thanks. I have a bran Coolabah and yours looks quite a bit darker in the photo. Must be the light. I recently got a Cattleman in santone. I was a little worried that it might be too green for my taste, but it’s a pretty cool color. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Yeah, it is kinda fun to wear Akubras in the rain. (Says the guy who didn't wear one today despite heavy rain in the forecast.) The black Cattleman looks good on you.

    Be aware that the Akubra hemp hats are very rigid, not soft like many straw hats.

    Australian Gear?

    My first order was fine and the issue with the second was mostly just annoying because I was able to fix the problem with the hat with some steam. But their lackadisicsl response and refusal to acknowledge even the potential for any fault on their part irked me. Ultimately, my sense is that...

    Australian Gear?

    I remembered this thread and felt compelled to mention that I ordered a second hat from them at some point and was not as pleased with the outcome. Without going into the details, the hat arrived in less-than-perfect condition, due to their error in my opinion, and I wasn't thrilled with their...

    Thank you for clarifying that.
