My brand new Campdraft just arrived and it's too small for me so I thought I'd check and let someone in the US get one more quickly before initiating the exchange process. $105 + actual shipping PayPal to CONUS only.

@boze how does it measure inside the sweat ? My Bushman came from San Diego fitting tight , and shrunk to a 58 . All the rest were from Australia directly , and came larger and shrank to fit . Its good to let them know your best fit measurements . Someone will jump on that .

I mostly wear a 7 3/8 and in truth I'm probably best in a long oval, which might be the issue. My head measures 23" to 23 1/4". I can put the Campdraft on but it's a little too snug.

fwiw, i am also a long oval and when i received my campdraft from australia i had to take it to Baron Hats to have it reblocked long oval. you may have a size too small or you may simply need to have it blocked long oval.

My accordionist was over tonight for rehearsal and he's a proper 59 long oval and won't buy anything else. I had him try on the Campdraft and the size fit but the regular oval aspect didn't.

I also just my hair cut again and the Campdraft is pretty close to fitting me while some of my favorite hats are just a tad loose. I think the simplest answer is that I'm a little between sizes and more comfortable with a 60 in Akubra.

No big deal. I'll sell this 59 here or I'll return it. Thanks for the idea about reblocking.

how much would shipping be to 14423? also, could you post another pic with that hat against another color so I can get a better feeling for the true color? Thanks,

I bought boze's Hat , but its a great color that looks like granite , but with a blue green tint that appears more in certain light . I'm color blind , but I think it might be my favorite CD color . Very nice felt too .
