    Akubra Overload

    I like the color. Different without being odd.

    “WTF’ Hats,” that are hard to believe...

    :(

    Baking soda discolored my Akubra Cattleman. Anyway to save it?

    My guess is that only you will notice or be aware of it.

    Vintage Photos of Kids in Hats

    Helmets, like the kid on the right is wearing were all the rage when I was his age.

    Akubra Overload

    I think it depends on whether you go for form or for function. A wide brim serves a real purpose, but if you are only concerned with appearance, I guess there’s a chance you won’t like them. One man’s “improvement” is another man’s abomination.

    Pre 1940s dress hats

    What is amazing is how much a dollar would buy then. I was a little kid at that time, so I had no concept of money. I knew that all men wore a hat in public, but I had no clue how much they cost.

    Well chosen.

    Vintage Photos of Kids in Hats

    Whichever year it was, it was before that virus ”solved” the rabbit problem, and almost put Akubra out of business.

    How do folks react to your hat wearing?

    And what did you tell him?

    A Noob's First Fedora / A Little Guidance Please

    I will add my voice to the chorus advising you to forget about wool hats. Stick to fur felt.

    Lamentations of the Large-headed!

    I should have said “Please keep us up to date.”

    Lamentations of the Large-headed!

    That hat would easily cover my ears. 6 7/8 or 55 cm.

    Brim Up or down

    Some hesitate to wear “real” hats, for fear that they will “look like a dork” Unfortunately some ways of wearing a hat practically ensure that we will look like a dork. Choose your style carefully.

    Brim Up or down

    Am I the only one here too dumb to know what that means?

    Brim Up or down

    Always snapped down in front.

    "Bash." Not a hatter's term?

    I think people get really wound up over some very strange things.

    The unsteamed hat, just like in the old movies

    I’m not sure what made you think the old-time movie hats were unsteamed. I think it would be pretty hard to make hats without using steam.

    And a river runs through it

    I agree.
