No worries Dave ..... I will just have to save up and buy myself a new one (they are about $160 AU) But if you change your mind feel free to PM me ...... Cheers Dan :)
Hi Dave,
If you are willing to accept £45 delivered, please consider the Carbon Grey sold to me ... The exchange rate to $AU is not very favorable for me, but for a Fed IV I am willing to part with some hard earned $.
Cheers Dan :)
Hi Dave,
You are welcome to PM me if you still want to sell, but ......... I have sort of lost interest now its been so long without a reply.
Cheers Dan
Hi Dave, I am interested in the Carbon Grey ...... I usually wear a 7 1/8 (57cm) so I am thinking if this one is "pre-shrunk" it might suit. Can you ship it to me in Australia? ( I know, how ironic that I live here and seeking an Akubra from UK ) if so, can you please confirm your total price...
Wouldn't it be great if hats came with a tether cord attached to your lapel, so they didn't blow away in the WIND when riding the TROLLEY...........:D;)
Seriously though, that hat looks very nice on you mate......but if its giving you a headache, I would say "too tight".
It might only need a...
Nice choice for a first Fedora......I bought a similar WOOL felt for my first and loved it to bits.........but,might I suggest you try a FUR felt next, the soft smooth texture will seem vastly different to the wool, and dare I say once you go furfelt, there is no going back!! ;)
Enjoy...

Unfortunately after consulting with the "Minister for War and Finance" ( ie. my wife :D) I was reminded of my other purchases this month (a nice Dobbs and new grips for my Colt.45) so apparently I have used my "allowance" already. Thank-you for your very generous offer Purplesage, sorry to have...
Such a lovely hat..... I have a Dobbs, Cav and Champ space weight similar to this ..........how much for shipping to 4558 Maroochydore, Queensland, Australia?? :)

Great thread, very informative and a nice display of some fantastic examples of fedoras.
One thing though, where in the timeline of hats does the "wind trolley cord" appear?? Is it any particular decade or was it more about different options from different hat brands throughout??
2 of my hats...
Hey there Thinker,
My first hat was a wool, (I had zero idea about Fedoras then) but I have since acquired a few fur felts and there is just no going back for me.
There are not too many "vintage" fur felts available here in Australia, so all mine have been sourced from the USA ebay etc...
How about this one???:eeek:
