    The International Wool Felt Consortium

    That's a lovely hat Steve. I suspect when the felt is prepared in the right way, with the right wool, the difference between fur and wool is less pronounced than with today's mass production methods.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Thanks for all the comments on the Christy's cap (I finally found the one in natural linen that I bought last year and put in a safe place...). Today trying out a new Huckle (Tonak) - more photos in the new hats thread:

    David – very nice Strat – the shape looks good in a panama. HatsRme – I like that sage colour. Joao – You carry the westerns well. TJones – Thanks for sharing – we don’t see many campaign hats on here. GTDean – that’s a nice trim job on that Resistol and the band works well. I was looking at...

    Post New Hats Here!

    No apologies necessary for a fascinating aside! Yes the hairs are pre-dyed, and fairly long - a similar finish to a lot of the traditional trachten hats.

    Nice colour mix - great for a coastal stroll in the sun. Whereabouts in Kent?

    New Huckle 'Supreme' (Tonak) Roughly 3" brim and 5" crown (bashed). Nice felt - but not what I'd call lightweight. A basic cloth sweatband, and the ribbon work is perfunctory. At the price it could be worth the effort of having a leather sweat installed and the...

    Joao - that Resistol looks great TJ - maybe a deep wine red or a steel grey might give you the look you want. I'd go for the latter, but can see the former working well. Bowlerman - I like that combination of felt and ribbon. Eric - great hat and shirt. A lake to swim in sounds great...

    Akubra Campdraft

    Looks nice Andy - should be a versatile colour

    The end of the Akubra Squatter?

    The three month wait is a bit of a pain, but even taking into account shipping charges, they're still well priced compared to a lot of contemporary hats. I've just placed an order for one in Steel Grey from Everything Australian - the service was excellent on the Campdraft, and their postage...
