    Akubra Overload

    Just pulled the trigger on a Carbon Grey Fed IV. We'll see if you guys are right about how easy it is to bash these things, or if I'll just end up driving myself crazy!

    Looks great.

    Yeah, and out of the blue today I find myself looking at the Bluegrass Green Stylemaster. Oy.

    I was looking at the Hatsdirect website, and discovered that the shipping cost for two hats is less than US$4.00 more than for one hat. That's a huge savings.

    I'll second (or third, or tenth) what everyone else is saying about that "whiskey" hat - really great!

    It looks good to me! (Of course, you could always get one in Moonstone as well . . .)

    Am I right that Akubra's carbon gray has a bit of a blue tint to it? Choosing a color is not easy.

    Thanks - that's tawny in your photo? looks great, by the way. Thanks.

    I said in another thread recently that I don't like the heritage fawn color, but I have to say it looks great in the Fed IV deluxe. Is tawny fawn in the regular Fed IV essentially the same color? Thanks.

    I think the Fed looks the best. The lack of taper and the brim size seem to fit your face better.

    Akubra Banjo Paterson or Angler?

    I have an Angler. I go back and forth on whether I should have gotten something else depending on how I feel on any given day about the Angler’s brim being turned up a bit on the sides. I would have gone for a Banjo except I'm not crazy about regency fawn and at the time I wasn't looking for...

    That photo may have convinced me to pull the trigger on an open-crowned hat.

    I remember you posted some pictures of the fawn Fed a while back. It's a great-looking hat.

    I could tell you that with a straight face, but only because I think I'd prefer Moonstone rather than fawn/brown. (Even my Angler gets me "Indy" comments, and it's not even a fedora.)

    I'm starting to think all you Campdraft/Fed IV guys may have been right all along. I happened to be in touch with them during the time they updated their website. Apparently their software can't remove the Australian tax when they do an international order, so they chopped a corresponding...

    Speaking of Campdrafts, it looks like Hats Direct now has the CD Deluxe in Moonstone. (Maybe you all knew that, but it's news to me.). Seems like that's kicking things up to a whole new level!

    That looks great with the center dent. You don't seem to see that too much with the Campdraft for some reason.

    The answer is the Australian version.

    Australian Gear?

    I just wanted to mention that I did end up ordering from Australian Gear and all went well. They shipped the hat out right away and it was delivered in about a week.

    Help with Akubra styles.

    Is it normal for different Akubra styles to fit differently? When I tried some at JJ Hat Center, the Snowy Rver in 59 seemed huge, while the Campdraft and Bushman were pretty snug. As an aside, JJ is the only U.S. source for the Campdraft I've seen. It's expensive, but it may be a good...
