Buy an Akubra …… save lots of money.
Mike uses Winchester beaver as his standard. So there good reason to believe all of his hats would stand up as well. I have 9 or 10 of Mike's hats, beaver & rabbit and all are brilliant.One last word from me: if you want to spend a little more and go for a custom make, I can vouch for the ruggedness of my Northwest Hats 100% beaver fedora. I think I paid 400 for mine way back in late 2018 or early 2019 (can’t remember right now) but he has been my go-to travel hat ever since. Structurally he is still as sound today as he was the day I received him, and he’s been completely around the world once and spent an entire year on the truck with me as well as numerous trips to Europe and Asia. Can’t promise every hat Northwest makes would perform so well, but mine certainly has.
That box is at the bottom of a huge stack, so no photos right now.
I think that is a great upside of buying an inexpensive hat like the Campdraft....made to be worn and abused. When you have worn it out, celebrate the journey and buy a new one.I'm in the process of learning how to rehab old worn hats.
My old worn Campdraft is pretty tough. I could slap you in the face with it and make you tell me how to treat my hats better.
