No I have not. You remember of course ,I already have my cattleman creased hat in my Mike Moore made 'The Ranger'.indycop said:Rusty did you order any new Akubras? I am thinking of a modified cattleman for my next campdraft.
Yes That's why I am thinking of a cattleman! Actually a sort of cattleman with a slight barely noticable gus with a little extra.RBH said:No I have not. You remember of course ,I already have my cattleman creased hat in my Mike Moore made 'The Ranger'.

Stibbons...do those larger holes on the side make a difference in the heat...Do they allow the hat to breath better...If so...I've been contiplating the Territory as a future hat...stibbons said:There haven't been too may real country styled hats in this thread so far, so I thought I'd share some pictures of my first hat, an Akubra Coolabah.
I've very slowly worked the side dents a lot deeper and with a sharper pinch at the front, mostly due to mis-handling it and pinching the front of the crown. I realise now that that was a bad idea, but it has resulted in a crease that I really quite like. I've also recently done a little bit of work widening the centre crease.
This lid's been with me to outback Western Australia, and all over Sydney as well.

but I have to say it is slowly getting a diamond crease.
Colby Jack said:Here's a thread to keep up with all the Akubra's. Sort of a documentation to keep up with all the styles and actual pics of these wonderful lids perched on our heads. I borrowed the title from a post by Carter...
Here's my Camp Draft in silverbelly. One incredible hat!
First shot in open crown...pre bash...
The next shot is with a diamond bash added...
One happy Akubra owner...
