Akubra Adventurer available at EA

[Duper]

I noticed a few days back that the folks at everythingaustarlian have been doing some work on the Akubra section of their website. The photos are larger and crisper and there are a few models newly listed.

One in particular I thought some may find interesting is the Adventurer. Does anyone already own one? I don't recall seeing any chat about this model around the lounge. David Morgan has an Adventurer but it is open crown and the brim would seem to be larger. EA offers a graphite grey version as well. Anyways another dimensional cut brim to choose from.

I've had a DM Adventurer for a couple of years. Nice hat, but its kind of like a Federation customized a little so DM could have an exclusive offering. At the time it came out the Fed IV had not been released. Mine has a slightly wider brim, but still dimensional, of 2 7/8 x 2 3/4, and a nicer sweat band than the standard Fed III and a lower crown at 5 3/4". Otherwise, its pretty much the same. I don't have a Fed IV to compare it to.

This one looks like it has a lower crown than the DM version.

Have they always offered the International? First time I have noticed that model...

The Adventurer they display may or may not be the same hat Colby Jack displays on the first page of the Akubra Overload thread. The pic is still there, if you are curious.

gtdean, I'm still very new here overall but I recall seeing the International advertised a few years back. It was around when I bought a Casual some time ago. There is another dimensional brim for folks who like those.

I don't know if the Adventurer they offer has the same specs as the Morgan hat of the same name, but this one looks good from where I sit.

I really need to throw some business EA's way. I hear so much positive about them that I've got to see for myself. What I like is even if it's a three month wait, they have some more obscure styles that catch my eye.

My Adventurer is also on the first page of that thread. There was also a whole thread about it, but the pics are no longer there:

That thread is on the DavidMorgan Adventurer, but Colby Jack emphasized in his post that his Akubra Adventurer is not the same Adventurer made for DavidMorgan. This is getting confusing .

Hehe, I remember that CJ's hat wasn't the Morgan Adventurer. Having more than one model with the same name can get tejus, can't it?
