Looks good on you.
I've been thinking of getting another Woomera and leaving the crown open. Taking the side swoop out of the brim and working the kettle curl like my current Woomera but only with an open crown. The reason for the crown left open is because I've been wanting a mushroom hunting hat that'll kinda look like a mushroom. I know it probably sounds dumb but I think it would be kinda fun to have a hat that looks the part. I tend to find myself out hunting on wet days and my other hats see enough rain from daily work and play so it'd be nice to be able to give them a little break. The Woomera is heavy and I'd much rather have another BOTP or Silver Spur but I they don't make them anymore so my open crown options are limited.
There's nothing wrong with wearing an open crown hat in my book. I think you should go for it.

Congrats on the purchase and don't forget to post the pics when you get it!I bit the bullet today and ordered a Federation IV Deluxe in dark brown. Really looking forward to playing with the hat and a steaming kettle!
