Waiting Stinks! I just received a note that my hat shipped via USPS today. That's great news, of course, but as slow as the mail service is in my area, I dread the wait.
Yes, if a thing is worth doing or having, it's worth waiting for. From all the Akubra Stylemaster suggestions, I'm guessing this is one of those things.

After some ups and downs, my Akubra StyleMaster is here!
I made the rookie mistake of ordering the wrong size. I also decided when I saw the acorn color that I didn't like it that much. So I sent it back and exchanged for the correct size and carbon gray color.
It just so happened that I was home sick today and was able to receive the package when it arrived. My eagerness to open the package was tempered somewhat by feeling cruddy, but it didn't take long for me to grab my trusty Swiss Army Knife(SAK). A couple of gentle slits later and I was unpacking my new hat.
Being new to all of this, my first impressions may not count for much, but this is one nice hat. The weight and body of the fur felt are impressive. The softness along the crown is amazing. I added one piece of sizing felt and the hat sat as naturally as can be.
Thank you all for recommending the StyleMaster. I am very pleased. I'm not much of a picture poster, but I may give this one a shot when I feel better.
