Wearing my Fawn Capricorn today as well. Along my grey Capricorn and Rink (cream color but identical to Capricorn), these three hats get lots of wear during the hot summer months, especially if there is any chance of rain in the forecast. Now one guesses they are plastic. On bright sunny days I...
Hats Direct ("The Hattery) also list Glen Grey, Bran, and Sand on their website while Everything Australian carries all those colors along with Bluegrass Green, Regency Fawn, and Tanbark Brown.
Looks great on you James! I have a brown Fed IV as well (standard grade) and it seems to be very versatile, splitting the line between dress and casual. I really like the dimensional brim as well.
Of course with your height and build you will probably get the inevitable Indy comments!

My Catteman (also in Fawn) and my Bushman are my favorite outdoor hats for hiking, camping, inclement weather, etc. The unlined Cattleman is also slightly cooler in warm weather.
Enjoy!
Twenty-one (17 for me, 4 for my wife) since October of 2010. Now that I have a lot of the "basics" covered, I can forsee only the occasional vintage or (hopefully) custom purchase now and then.
