Akubra Overload
Wow, so many awesome hats. I'll try to get some good pictures of mine this weekend. Absolutely love this bash! I've been trying to get a good diamond bash in my International (see profile picture). Having a little trouble getting it just right, though. -
Akubra Value is Soaring Right Now
I for one hope the Australian dollar starts to bounce back soon. Sorry, gents. But with the exchange rate the way it is, Akubras are about the only felt hats I can afford. :) That said, I completely and utterly agree with this! -
What hats in movie 'Dark City' (1998)?
Thanks, NB, that was pretty much exactly what I was looking for - something that would fit in in the big smoke I call home now, and the much more rural town my parents live in. It's an Akubra International. The Akubra website says they only do carbon grey, but I'm willing to swear it's more... -

Fedora without a suit advice
Heh, I was just about to write about my experience wearing a hat with hoodies on a somewhat regular basis this winter. It feels a little bit odd, for exactly the reason you describe. But I kind of like the way it looks, and having the extra weight around the neck can be useful in chilly weather... -
New here but not new to hats
Welcome aboard! As an Australian I think I'm legally obligated to agree with you that Akubras are very fine hats. I have three and love all of them. That's probably a good thing, as I seem to have trouble finding a fur felt hat that isn't an Akubra... -
Best "hat movie" ever?
I recently re-watched The Man Who Wasn't There, and kept saying to myself "wow, what an awesome hat!". Billy Bob Thornton's hat, especially, is great. I'd love a lid that looked like that, but I'm having a lot of trouble getting the diamond bash just right. -
Homburg or snap brim flipped up?
Whatever it's called, it sure looks like a nice hat. :) -
The Dumbest Comment I Ever Heard
After a good couple of months of wearing hats, I got my first "that hat makes you look like Indy" remark from a friend yesterday. My response? "...but it's grey..." -

Hats aplenty on the bus
Hat etiquette on buses I've been wondering what the accepted etiquette is for hat wearing on public transport. I catch buses occasionally, and feel vaguely uncomfortable leaving my lid on. Obviously, it isn't always easy to remove it though. So if I'm sitting and it's convenient (I've got room... -
How did you start wearing hats?
Figured this seems as good a place as any to introduce myself. Hi! :) I was another one of those kids who spent most of their time growing up wearing hats. Baseball caps or bucket hats in summer to keep the sun off, and beanies in winter. Oh, and who can forget the old ice cream bucket with...
