You'll like it, I assure you. This and my Campdraft are my two go to hats.
I have three of Johnnyphi's vintage hats and wear them, but I'm more careful about where I wear them than I am the Akubras. The long and short of it is that the Akubras are modern hats and can be replaced easily, but...
HI, Sean. I see that you are interested in the Fed IV. I have a Fed Deluxe IV in the heritage fawn color.
The deluxe is made of a better grade of felt and has a nicer sweatband than the regular Fed IV, but I am quite sure you would be as happy with the regular one as you would with the...
Congratulation, PJ! You won't regret ordering an Akubra. They are quite nice hats and they come highly recommended here on the lounge. Be sure and post some pictures when you get it, won't you?
If I may, I have a tendency to echo Alan's and Bart's sentiments. That hat as beautiful as it is in its pristine condition was made to be worn. If it's like the Stetson I have from Johnnyphi, it will take a dry bash and then return to its open crown with no ill effects. I don't wear mine often...
I see a few westerns at work, but not many really, hardly any fedoras. Usually if I'm out, mine is the only fedora. It's interesting though...two times in the last couple of months we were out with a group of eight or ten friends at outdoor concerts or event parties with a lot of people present...
Looks great, Bart. When I read the crown was 6 in. I thought it was pretty tall, but it looks really good on you. I'd love to ask tonyb to make one for me and I might just do that, but right now I have three or four irons in the fire already. Someday, someday.
Heck, I wear a hat around the house most of the time. I'm not in my jammers, but my Campdraft is still up there. Truth be known, a lot us do the same thing.
Bart, I wonder if you might be able to post some closer pics of this hat on your noggin, both front and profile? I'd like to the the hat closer. It looks mighty fine, but a closer shot or two would sure help a lot. Thanks.
Jimmy and Gene, you are both killin' me with these hats! Another drop dead hat from Jimmy and two beauts for Gene.
Jimmy you should think about posting your collection here. I for one would love to see them all together and I'm saying others would too. I certainly commend your excellent...
As per Carter, Art Fawcett is the man to ask if you want to know for sure, but the last I heard it was 14 weeks.
On a happier note, I got an e-mail from Art today and it seems my name is up in his que. I quickly called him as soon as I saw the e-mail and found his number on his site. He wanted...
