I suspect it has shrunk. In my experience Akubras tend to shrink over time more than other brands (e.g., Stetson, Resistol, etc).
Agreed. I've been ordering my last few Akubras a size large and using a shim because I know they will shrink - and not just the sweatband, the whole hat.

My Sombrero, on the other hand, is running a little large. Gotta get it broke in and ready for mushroom season!

The Squatter has a smaller crown.
The Colly has a 5 in. crown. That's an inch taller than a Cattleman or a Territory; three triangular small eyelets. It's a Territory with a tall crown, or maybe a Sombrero with a smaller brim?

Big ass hat. I love it!
