I thought that was an Akubra.Really nice color.I tried to order a Biltmore in sage green but I was told Biltmore isn't currrently manufacturing hats.Neophyte said:Well it ain't an Akubra, but that particular shade is called Sage Green.

I think I will get a Chatham.I had previously considered getting a Stetson Temple in sage.But I decided not to because of the black band.I prefer hats with matching bands.So I like how the Chatham has a matching band.Neophyte said:Well that's a Stetson Chatham, why don't you just go Stetson?
I mean, one company's SAGE won't necessarily be identical to another's.

Neophyte said:By the way, how did your Chatham get onto the Akubra Overload page lol ?
Oh yeah, you were talking about not being able to get another hat until September lol! This is off topic, but tell me: Did your wife cancel the deal?
Wow,thanks for the tip.I would have been very disappointed if I ended up with a black band.jbucklin said:BlackBrim, make sure if/when you buy one you specify the matching ribbon on the Sage Chatham---it seems I read somewhere that the hat is offered with a black ribbon as well. Could be wrong though. Still, it wouldn't hurt to ask, just to be on the safe side.
J B said:Imperial quality, yes. That's what most Akubra hats are too, so I have a feeling that this is a potentially common phenomenon, although I'm not sure about Heritage felts.
Any Heritage felt Akubra owners here relate to the sweat stain problems?
