Does anyone have pictures of the Akubra CEO or Bogart?

I'm thinking about ordering one, but I'd like to see some more pictures before I make up my mind. Unfortunately, I can't find any with google. If anyone can post some (from any angle, but I'd really like to see both hats in profile) it'd be much appreciated.

Thanks!

If you like the CEO and Bogart, you should consider Akubra's very similar Sidney, as well. David Morgan, in Bothell right there in your neck of the woods, stocks it.

I got mine for Christmas, and it's my favorite hat.

Friday I just bought a CEO for the wider brim/taller crown. Akubra's site has a pic, but here you go:

Thanks.

I'm thinking now that I'd like to get an Akubra Squatter, since it looks like the crown isn't tapered at all, but that CEO is a nice hat. Maybe I should just get both.

That is a nicely done hat rokket. Did you re-bash it or did you get it done at a hatters. I liked the look of the CEO myself, however was set on an Adventurer. The CEO I looked at had a sort of Safari bash and was turned down at the back.

Good look on your lid tho'.

Thanks, Jonesey. yes, the CEO had the same downturn/safari thing when I got it, didn't do much but play with the brim and pinch it a bit. I just replaced the hat band on my Stylemaster, wider (1.5" instead of 1.25", and just barely pulled that off. I have some black ribbon for the CEO to do the same, but might have a hatter do it.

The Adventurer is an awesome hat, mate, just like Indy's, and comes open crowned for total custom bashing. The Squatter can be shaped into a similar look I think. Post some pix of your hat(s) and keep us posted on your final decision!
