    Akubra Overload

    I agree, jecoe. It's definitely not a dress hat. I put it on tonight after I got home from work so my better half could take some pictures of it for the lounge. I will wear it more with jeans and sweatshirts or t-shirts, but that's how I wear most of my hats anyway. I don't wear a hat to work...

    Akubra Overload

    I'm inclined to think the Campdraft is the best of the Akubras, RBH. I probably pick mine up nearly half the time. Most of the rest of the time the black from Major Moore is on my noggin. Now there is a very fine hat.

    Akubra Overload

    Another Akubra arrived at our house today. It's a heritage fawn Banjo Patterson. The brim took a bit of a beating in transit, and I had to wet it down a la Gene and work the waves out of it. The jury is still out on this one. It's no Campdraft, and it has quite a bit of taper in the crown. The...

    DISCONTINUED - The Dalmore Cigar Malt

    Possible because they don't have any to sell? They suggested I keep an eye on their website in February and said that the new distribution would be from the east coast to the west.

    Akubra Overload

    I just received an answer to my e-mail from Ron Lilburne at Hatsdirect. He said Hatsdirect is waiting to hear from Akubra regarding their request for a special run of MID-GRAY Campdrafts. He said Akubra's response would be dependent on whether they have suitable trim and wind trolleys. I...

    Both are great looks, Bart. I really like the gray. It suits him very well. Good to see you starting him on our addiction at a young age. lol

    The Open Road Guild

    I won my first Open Road on e-bay last week. It was also the first hat I've bought from e-bay. I've been waiting for daylight to take pictures of it, but when I did I found that flash pictures gave the best rendition of the hat's color. I'd like to see any comments or criticisms...

    I posted some pics of this hat this afternoon, but I didn't have any on the noggin shots. Here are a couple: This hat, an OR, seems to me to sit high on my head. Is that how they usually are? And is there a customary way to wear an OR - front brim snapped up or snapped down? This one...

    Akubra Overload

    It'll be my pleasure too, carter, if a gray one shows up at my door. Did anyone happen to mention which gray they might consider. I'm in for any gray, but moonstone or lighter would be very cool with me.

    Akubra Straws

    Sounds to me like it'd be hot as all get out, Rob. Have you thought about checking with Panama Bob? That's who I'd recommend. http://www.panamas.biz/ It may take him a while, but he'll get you a nice hat for a price you won't beat.

    Post New Hats Here!

    At the end of last week I won my first ever e-bay hat. I'd been wanting to add a real Open Road to my collection, so I bid on three hoping I'd win one. Well, I won two instead. The first one arrived on Monday or Tuesday, and I've been waiting to take pictures of it in daylight. I...

    Rob, that campdraft looks great on you. I'm glad you decided to keep it. What Akubra calls silverbelly isn't what I think of as silverbelly either, but what do I know? The Fed looks good too, but the campdraft was made for you.
