    Akubra Campdraft Stockist Question

    I have 4 Akubras and love em, 60s and 61s. You won't have a problem with a 61 if you're a true 7-1/2. I alway prefer to shrink one down if needed rather than stretch it and risk making the brim wonky.

    Last is an I don't know what. I call it the Grapes of Wrath hat since it is fashioned after the hats the deputies wore in that film. Its a thin yet firm but flexible felt. The hat has no liner or sweat. With a sweat it would be a 7-3/8. Brim 3-1/2 and open crown at 5-3/4. Asking $40. Postage on you.
