    Scotch Guard? Scout Felt Hat Protector?

    I've had a few of my hats 'soaked' in heavy rain. Both Akubra, but one FF Fed4 DL and one Hemp Balmoral. I can't say they liked it at the time but no long term damage to the Fed4. However, it may, just may have had the band shrink a touch but I can't see it. The leather band on the Balmoral...

    Looking for hat information?

    Many thanks and yes, I will be careful. I already emailed hats direct as I had a hat transaction go bad locally and am still awaiting a refund. When that arrives, I'll be ordering an F4. It's interesting that in many of the posters detail on this forum, they talk about oval, regular, wide etc...

    Looking for hat information?

    Hi, new here. Had hats for ages and in recent times, Tilley's. My favourite being the LTM6 but... I'd wanted to take the plunge for a long time into a real felt hat.
