    Akubra sizing: I wear a 57.5... What should I order? Shrink or stretch?

    I measure to 57.5 and I ended up going with a Fed IV in a 58. At first it was big on the sides, but I was able to get it to fit by putting the included foam strips under the sweatband. After only a few wears, it shrunk up enough to remove the foam strips and fits just fine now.

    I was interested in reading the newspaper article on Mike mentioned earlier in this thread, but the link was no longer working. I managed to find a new link: http://ccweek.com/article-3233-hatter-woodworker-strive-to-keep-the-old-crafts-alive.html An interesting quote: “One of the last...

    I'm glad I found this thread, otherwise I wouldn't have heard about him. It looks like the word is spreading a bit as he's been posting a lot of his custom builds on Facebook lately. Definitely a great value for the prices he charges.

    Adding removable lining to an A-2?

    Thanks for the suggestions. That Eastman vest looks really nice, but a little too expensive for me. I'll try to look into some other vests. I'll also take a look at the M-65 liner. Based on the pics I'm seeing, the arms might be too wide to fit properly underneath, but maybe I can try to find...

    Adding removable lining to an A-2?

    I have a US Authentic A-2 in goatskin. I like it a lot, but unfortunately A-2's aren't that warm and it doesn't seem like I get to wear it that often. I was thinking about looking into getting some sort of removable lining made for it (button or zip-out), possibly with something like...

    Akubra Whippet - Carbon Grey Size 58

    It doesn't look like Akubra is making this model anymore, but it is basically identical to the Hampton. The model name is on the sweatband if you want me to take a pic.

    Hand-sewn shoes by Rancourt & Co.

    I've been thinking about getting some of the Ranger-mocs once my current shoes wear out. They seem like a pretty good deal. I usually wear a narrow width, so it's difficult to find shoes that fit me.
