Recommendation for Outdoors Hat
Hey Chips; I too own both Tilley and Akubra, 3 Tilley's and 4 Akubras. Like Neophyte said, the Tilley is practically indestructible. My Tilley T3 went through a boat motor prop running wide open on a lake in Alabama a few years back on a fishing trip, and the only thing that happened to it was...- Preacher Man

Banjo or Coober
Good looking hat James. I considered the Coober Pedy before I settled on the Cattleman. Since you own both, tell me the differences in them if you would please sir. Just wondering since I had considered it. Yours looks good and looks good on you. Thanks, Preacher Man- Preacher Man

Looking for your input on the Akubra Cattleman
I pulled the trigger and ordered my Cattleman yesterday from Hatsdirect. My Campdraft is a 62, my Fed IV is a 63. Both were a little big at first, the Fed IV looser that the Campdraft, but both fit great now. Jenny said she'd send me one that measured a 62.5 due to my noggin being a 7 3/4 LO. I...- Preacher Man

Looking for your input on the Akubra Cattleman
Great looking hat Johnny! I appreciate your feedback. How was the fit when you first got it? Did it snug up to size soon? Does the Cattleman shed rain well? And by the way, that's a very cute little one you're holding there. Daughter? My wife and I just got a new granddaughter, little girls are...- Preacher Man

Looking for your input on the Akubra Cattleman
Thanks James71 Great looking Cattleman. From your pics I see the back of the brim is turned up. On the HatsDirect website the pic shows it turned down all the way around. Did yours come with that upturn or did you do that yourself? From what you say, it's just the hat I'm looking for...- Preacher Man

Help on a hat color
Hello Big Man; Judging from the picture and from my knowledge of my own grandfather who would have been about the same age as your grandfather appears to be in those pics from 1924; I'd have to agree with J.T. on the probable color. In the pics of my grandfather from his day he was wearing...- Preacher Man

"Bash." Not a hatter's term?
I'm with scotrace I'll agree with scot on this; crease or block are much more accurate words. Who would want to take their new hat and "bash" it to make it look good? lol I'll also be like RBH and try to "unlearn" the word when referring to blocking my hat. Good points.

Scotch Guard? Scout Felt Hat Protector?
What about Scotch Guard? I did a search and couldn't find anything on the subject; if I'm repeating, I'm sorry - please forgive. Here's my question: have any of you treated your hat with Scotch Guard to repel water? Would it have a negative effect on the felt? If you have used it, what were the...- Preacher Man
