No, Akubra's "Cedar Brown" is a very dark brown; even darker than their "Dark Brown" used on the Fed IV.Wonder if cedar brown equates to mid-brown shown in this example, a DM Adventurer...

I'm in North MIami. If you don't have any plans for dinner, my son and I are going to an incredibly good Italian place in Sunny Isles tonight. Place is called Timo's and it's right on A1A across from the ocean. Wanna join us?Where are you, Bob? We're running around Ft Lauderdale and Miami this week. Went to the zoo yesterday... stuck in Wal-Mart today, lol.

Wish Akubra would do a run of CD's in black.I love my Camp Drafts, I like the height and the brim width and they take a beating. I have a bunch of Stetson Open Roads and Dobbs Westwards and other thin ribbons and the Camp Drafts are my go-to hats. I had no trouble at all creasing them. If you scroll back through this thread there are pictures of them. I ran them right under the hot shower and they were easy to crease. Best bang for the buck for an open crown thin ribbon fedora in my opinion . Also, the felt does get softer as the hat is worn and handled.

This.Wish Akubra would do a run of CD's in black.
resting questionI am now thoroughly confused. I want a softer, open crown fedora in silver belly so I can crease it myself into a teardrop. A 2 1/2 inch brim is preferred. I read through the Stetson Premiere Stratoliner and Akubra Camp Draft threads and it is doing my head in. There are reports of the felt being so soft it will barely hold a bash, some that it is stiff, quality control at Stetson seems to be non-existent.
As for the brim size I figure I can have the Akubra trimmed to 2 1/2 inch if need be and do away with the edge ribbon.
I am posting this on both threads and look forward to any direction I get.
Thanks.
I'd like to see the Fed IV in navy as well.Wish Akubra would do a run of CD's in black.

I have three CDs and none of the brims have grown, they're all still 2 7/8". [emoji14]Sounds like you really want a Stratoliner , I've got a Premier Quality and its fine . The Brim of a Campdraft might grow on you , I personally love the Campdrafts I have .
LOL, I never thought to check mine.I have three CDs and none of the brims have grown, they're all still 2 7/8". [emoji14]
