    Akubra Federation?

    I just ordered one... ...and what you are worried about happened to me. When you do your measurement do it in centimeters not inches. Their hats are pretty accurate to size and they are made to centimeters. Follow their directions on sizing very carefully.

    Well, It Looks Like I'm On Strike...

    Of course... ...my first suggestion would be for you to be a fedora clad fashion plate. However, if your claim is you are getting stiffed, gypped, underpaid, etc., maybe you need to wear some worn and moth-eaten garment that subtlety give that: "I desperately need more green" look. ;)

    "Willow Green" Whippet

    Great Score... ...and beautiful hat. Great bash on it too. You'll have to run to keep the ladies from grabbing you.;)

    Does wearing vintage Get you noticed by the opposite sex?

    I think... ...Loungers should be happy that everyone is willing to spot us all those extra points with the opposite sex. I may be "out of the game" so to speak, but I still get lots of attention -- and I'm old and beat up! You really stand out when you go with the classics -- both men and...

    What Was the Plane In Raiders?

    scotrace... ...If it wasn't clear from the above discussion, the plane you are talking was a Ford Trimotor, The plane in the first movie was a made up concoction.

    Expect a bump in hats and classic cuts in suits.

    Does wearing vintage Get you noticed by the opposite sex?

    reetpleat... ...this is pretty dated, but relevant. 30 years ago, in the early 80s I used to go out sometimes in a three piece 30s cut suit. I'll never forget it. It had a vest with lapels. I paired it up with a silver belly fedora. Boy did I do well... My buds were amazed.

    A breakdown of Fedora Loungers by sex, location, age and marital status

    Edward, seems to me... ...from the post in the Rocky Horror outfit, I would say you aren't fat, and 5'10" isn't short. Isn't a "lecturer" a professor?

    A return to the 50's Ladies?

    Oh, that would... ...be nice. I think our ladies would agree it doesn't seem to be a major trend.

    knickers anyone?

    Of all the... ...styles of the Golden Era, knicker have made the worst passage in time. I like them, but they seem only marginally wearable on the golf course. Shame, it would be great if they came back in a big way.

    My Federation is Finally Here!

    Thanks everyone... ...for all the kind words Carter: did you switch your avatar? The new one looks great. Love the hat. Ricardo and Mr H: I didn't trim it down. The other one I got was the same size. I'm 6'4" and pretty big, so it may look smaller on me than on some of the more...

    Lightweight Question

    I noticed.... ....the Akubra Squatter has what seems to be a vent hole right over the bow. I would think that would cool it down a bit. Also Mark C. posted pictures of a hat he ventilated with a pattern. You occasionally see some fur felts with decorative patterns of tiny holes on the...
