Akubra Boss of the Plains: How much open crown is TOO much to reduce?

I like the look of that one Landman. I haven't been able to find many photos of the Akubra BOTP so it's nice to see yours. Thanks!

Thanks. It is a great hat. If you leave the brim up all the way around it reminds me a lot of an older Open Road with a little wider brim. The brim I think is around 3 1/2" but appears shorter because of the semi-pencil roll. I've actually been thinking of buying another one and leaving the brim up all the way around for a more dressy western hat.
