    Akubra Overload

    Nothing new and to be honest I was sitting at the computer bored, looked over and thought as much as I love that Hampton it's always been a bit short in the crown for my noggin with a center crease/bash. Didn't really want to change it and had resisted thus far but I always pop the crease out...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    I don't see many people wearing grey where I am, I mean there are folks who wear hats but they are all different variations of just light browns but most are light sandy colours. Gets really boring but I guess it's because of the heat/sun.

    I have an extreme allergic reaction to cats, enough so that it almost cost me my life a couple times. Ain't no way I'm going near one either. Anyways, sorry for the slightly off-topic run, not a hat I'd suggest for anyone lol.

    I know a guy called Barry who makes this kind of hat, he's quite famous for making/wearing cat skin hats (yes you read correctly) he's often known as the Catman of Kangaroo Island. There's some interesting folk downunder, but we do have a massive feral cat problem here.

    Thanks, I like it as they remind me of the old whippet I used to like and they are easy as to wear. Dress it up or down for a work hat, "it's all good". The bar was ok, pool was fun the jazz wasn't all that good sadly but a enjoyable time was had, made the Mrs happy and you know the old saying...

    Very nice, I always like the lighter grey's with a contrasting ribbon. Always looks sharp, never fails.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    Thanks, I think I might make myself a hardwood open block to my size and redo it with less taper and a different bash. Be fun and a proper open block say a #52 maybe in my size would be very handy I imagine. I got a couple of old hats I could use to learn and practice on more, bugger think I...

    Heading out to help someone with some wrangling so wearing my older Akubra with Crocodile foot band, which has been played with and refurbed. It was originally 62+ but I lost a massive amount of weight 2 years ago and it was way too big as I'm now only a 59. Wife thought it was disgusting and...

    Guide for first fedora/hat

    Yup, Brent said it well, you need to share a little more information on the kind/type of hat your after. A budget or even the intended use for the hat, hot dry or cold 'n wet, work or play etc.. Without a slight idea of what your after and a budget range it's like asking how long is a bit of...

    Akubra Overload

    I'm torn between the Fed IV and the CD, I'd like the better side profiles of brim of the Fed with a nice binding like the CD but a decent ribbon, I dislike the skinny ribbon. Vent holes I don't tend to notice as a lot of hats have them down here, though I bet they do stuff all for heat 'n...
