Akubra Overload

[Jedi5150]

Great high country pic Jedi. Where was the photo taken? It looks familiar. I am also in the central Ca area, up in the foothills.

Thanks Willybob! I took that on the High Trail looking West. At that point the High Trail is also the JMT and PCT. The lake in the background is Shadow Lake, and I was halfway between Agnew Meadows trailhead (between Mammoth Lakes and Devil's Postpile National Monument) and 1000 Island Lake. The valley behind me was the San Joaquin River Gorge.

Thanks! A far better looking item than the others that I have seen.

An Akubra color question for anyone: Charcoal vs Carbon Gray....which color is darker?

EDIT: Moving this question to "Ask a question..."

I believe charcoal is the same as graphite grey, which is darker than carbon gray.

If a teardrop crease is what you're after, the Angler is not only a fitting name, but seems to be very similar to the Banjo as well. The brim is 3" and the crown may be a tad taller in the front. The down side is that they only offer it in one color.

I have an Angler and love it! If not mistaken it now comes in Loden also

Good to see you and your hats around here. I like that hound. Cattle dog mix?

Couple weeks ago, vacationing on the Oregon Coast with my Bluegrass Green Campdraft.

I only checked a couple but they were all 3 month wait.

On the Everything Australian sale, the Campdraft in Bluegrass Green and Silverbelly are ready to ship. One neat thing they have added since the last time I ordered a hat is that you can pay in 4 monthly payments so you don't have it all on the card at once. That's great! A new way to slip the cost by the wife! LOL

That depends on which size and/or color you order. Try to order a Bluegrass Green in size 62 and it'll inform you you'll face the dreaded three month wait.

Just ordered an Angler in Loden

And sometimes much longer than three months... I'm at almost 3-1/2 months wait and EA just replied to my inquiry that my fawn Campdraft will ship from the factory "in 1-2 weeks". It'll be well over four months from order to my doorstep, but hopefully will be worth it. I must have ordered the day AFTER they finished up the last production run!

Yeah, I guess I should have prefaced that with a size 59! Sorry for you big headed people! LOL Seriously though, even with the wait there are some good prices. Now it's only a decision of what.

Just my luck the only hat I'm interested in was only discounted less than $10.

How much should I expect an Akubra Traveller to shrink? I am a 58 and I like a slightly looser rather than tighter fit. I know Akubra are made with some shrinkage in mind, so they start a bit loose and end exactly on the mark. How does that work with the pliofelt and cotton sweatband?

 

[jlee562]

Well, it's the leather sweatband that's the issue.

Cotton does shrink! and potentially the felt, to some degree!
