First Fur felt hat purchases, Akubras......

Keep them all. Wear them in rotation and see what you feel best with. And know it will change for no reason occasionally.
I don’t see any problems with black hats now, but once I preferred not to wear them.
I have somewhere north of thirty Akubras including two Snowy Rivers, but they are the ones I wear least, something about the crown taper just throws the look off for me. However, they are one of their bestsellers, so what do I know.
Enjoy what you like!

That's certainly smart, see what works with time. Now I'm having enough trouble with 3 hats, with over 30 I'd probably never get anything done! lol

Black becomes you as it does anyone, the trick is to dress for the hat. It shouldn't be the only black you're wearing. Besides, 61 is to large for me.

That's good advice. I'll let the hats live with me for a while, see how we get on.
