    Akubra Overload

    Liked my Cattleman in Bran so much I ordered the Black. I am really digging these Akubras. I am already eyeballing the Angler as my next Akubra. I sure like not worrying about getting stuck anywhere in a driving thunderstorm with torrential rains. Already worn both Cattlemans out in downpours...

    Akubra Overload

    I guess I didn't notice. I'll try to make a better effort.

    Akubra Overload

    I finally dipped my toe in the Akubra waters and ordered my first one on the 19th. Shipped out same day from Australia and at my door today by noon.

    The Hatco Outlet Store in Garland, TX

    Honestly, for the bad weather and rain soaked days I have purchased a couple of Outback Trading Company Kodiaks. Oilskin. I purchased two mesh versions as well. Still UPF50.

    How do folks react to your hat wearing?

    I haven't posted here in a while. I recently acquired a couple of Outback Trading Company Kodiak hats. The "field tan" one in the picture I wore to a furniture store the other day while I was with my family. Had on my black bomber jacket and tan slacks. The saleswoman approached me right in the...

    Johnny, Thank you for your response. I am very nervous about getting caught out in a good hard rain and ruining my hats. They aren't cheap as you know and I have read a lot of horror stories on here as far as Stetson in the rain. I own mostly Stetson. It is actually my greatest fear to get...

    Can anybody direct me toward a proven (used successfully by you) weather-proofing spray I can apply to my felt hats like modern Stetson, Dobbs and even my vintage? Thank you all in advance.

    What hat are you waiting for today?

    After many months of going back and forth on whether I like the cattlemen's crease I went ahead and ordered a modern Open Road in Silverbelly. Should arrive today.

    What hat are you waiting for today?

    I'm pretty sure after a little research that it is the Pawnee.

    I just did. Took a little bit of it out. Still noticeable to me. Would baby powder do anything?

    Hello fellow hat lovers. I have a question for you all. One of my silverbelly felts had somehow acquired a dark spot on the top of the brim. When I first noticed it tonight it looked like an ink dot. It is NOT as I have not had any pens around the hat. I cannot figure out what it could be as I...

    The Open Road Guild

    I am comparing silverbelly between my modern Strat and this vintage OR. Does everybody's vintage silverbelly have a more tannish hew than the more lighter modern or is it just this one?

    Some daylight shots. I think it helps bring out the texture and detail.

    The Open Road Guild

    I am officially applying for membership in the guild. Not only my first vintage Stetson but also my first Open Road! This is a 1960's Royal Deluxe Open Road.

    eBay hats outrageously priced

    I do not own an Akubra, however, I do own 3 modern Stratoliners (Black, Silverbelly and Caribou). I LOVE them!! If given the opportunity to purchase another Stratoliner I certainly would. As far as the price, you need to keep an eye out on Amazon, Stetson themselves and Ebay. I have had great...
