    Just Ordered...My SECOND Fedora! (Carbon Grey Akubra Federation)

    lol Very true. It's unfortunate too, since the look would likely be more dramatic, considering the higher crown. Thanks. It appears the corresponding photos have been removed though...bummer.

    Just Ordered...My SECOND Fedora! (Carbon Grey Akubra Federation)

    I just found out that my wife just ordered me a carbon grey Akubra Federation, for my upcoming birthday! I really need to get a grasp on what I'll need to do to the hat to shape the brim as I'd like it. I hope it's not too involved, as I don't have much confidence in my hat shaping...

    Indy hat post em up

    I have showed this video to around 15 -20 people. Each time, I preface it by saying, "Did you ever wonder how Indiana Jones' hat never fell off?". The initial reaction of everyone I showed it to was the same. Every one of them thought he really stapled the hat to his head. :eek: :eusa_doh...

    Akubra Sydney: A Review

    Nice hat, fellow Akubra Sydney wearer. :eusa_clap ;) The front pinch on mine has stayed in place. Only the top crease has a tendency to "creep" (for lack of better word[huh] ).

    My tawny fawn Akubra Federation

    Caparzo, with those new photos, the color seems to be very much in-line with the photo on the hatsdirect website. I like that color a lot. Very distinctive. When I get mine, I want the bash and the brim exactly like you have it. It seems all of the photos of the Federation I've seen show the...

    You seem to have a severe case of jaundice. You really should have that checked out!

    My tawny fawn Akubra Federation

    :eusa_clap :eusa_clap I really have fallen in love with the Federation. How close would you say the color is, in comparison to the Hats Direct website photo and/or your photos?

    At what wind velocity...

    I've been outside with my Akubra Sydney in wind gusts up to 40 miles per hour, and only had 2 instances where it felt like it was about to take flight. In both of those instances, I managed to grab the hat in time. I am absolutely amazed at how unaffected it has been by the wind. So, to answer...

    Just Ordered...My First Fedora!

    Can't say that I blame ya'. I kind of wish I would have bought a Federation. All those photos of Loungers wearing tall crowned fedoras has affected my preferences :eusa_doh: . Plus, it seems there is more room to allow for different creases [huh]. I'm going to be ordering a Federation next. I...

    A fur felt fedora for $24.50 ???

    As much as I would like to discuss/debate these things, I think it's best to keep that can of worms closed. ;)

    Indy hat post em up

    I like the look, alot. I had wondered how a vest like that would look with a fedora. :eusa_clap My next hat (:eusa_doh:) is going to be an Akubra Federation. Then on to a VS.

    A fur felt fedora for $24.50 ???

    Yeah, once I saw it was made in China...that was it. I'm not buying it.

    A fur felt fedora for $24.50 ???

    I wouldn't buy one for myself, but this sounds like a great hat for kids...even if it's slightly large! If only they made the smaller sizes in brown. Can't have everything though. I'm measuring my son's head tonight!

    Just Ordered...My First Fedora!

    I've finally arrived! I finally had my first "Hey, Indiana Jones" comment yesterday. I explained to her that I've been expecting that comment since getting the hat, but she had the distinct honor of being the first. lol Also, I just realized I had not taken a good photo of the crease, so...
