All You Need to Know About Hat Etiquette
I don't often walk into a Church, but I accept that is the custom and yes it would be inappropriate to wear a hat in a Church. Come to think of it I would not wear my hat if I was in an RSL either (not sure if you have them in the USA but in Australia we have the Returned and Services League... -

All You Need to Know About Hat Etiquette
I like your friend! Unless I'm in a very formal business lunch/dinner setting or dining at a friends home I will wear my hat when I'm eating. I don't follow any hat 'rules' but I must admit my hat on/hat off conduct is very inconsistent. It really depends on how I feel in a situation. Simply... -

All You Need to Know About Hat Etiquette
I will wear my hat if it "feels right" or if I just feel like wearing it. I won't wear it in my office or in a formal meeting situation. But at a Cafe or casual restaurant I will probably wear it. In a private home I usually take my hat off indoors but sometimes in my own home I wear my hat... -

I've noticed in the last few days that when I get emails for threads that I'm following I no longer get the actual post, just the name of the thread and the poster. Have I changed a setting or has something else changed? -

Reshaping an Akubra Federation IV
I have the straight sided dome. Go smaller rather than bigger, unless you plan to remove the leather sweat band and lining. Carol at Hat Shapers is very knowledgeable and helpful. I asked her a lot of questions before making my first order. carol@hatshapers.com -

Reshaping an Akubra Federation IV
I bought a vintage hat with a very out of shape brim. I applied a lot of steam to the brim and stretched it over the Hat Shaper and used the brim mould/flange to shape the brim 'upside down'. Once the hat was dry I snapped the brim up at the back and kept it down at the front and it kept a... -
Reshaping an Akubra Federation IV
It's funny rereading posts from last year. I have two Hat Shapers now. One with a brim and one slightly under sized so I can 'unshape' a crown without needing to remove he lining, leather sweat etc. They are pretty good for the price. I have used them a few times now. -

Reshaping an Akubra Federation IV
Congrats in your Fed IV too. I remember feeling that the brim was HUGE compared to the hats I was accustomed to wearing at the time. It's now one of the smaller brim hats that I have. I still love it though. The point is, you get used to it. They're a great hat. Enjoy. We'd love to see a pic... -
