Great, I love how you have personalized it with the pug.

A dark brown Bobby, I just streamed and reshaped. I may flatten the brim later, but for now I'll wear it as is.

So I took Bob's advice and put the FED under some books overnight. I still didn't use any water and I love how it came out!

I think it's just the slightest bit off center but I can live with that. I'm particularly happy with the profile shot. All in all a happy experiment!

Great look Nathaniel! A new twist on a Fed

Yes, it's a puggaree I bought on eBay. It really sets the hat off. If I get the chance I'll take some more photos.

Thanks for your concern. Thankfully there's only minor flooding in my area.

Greetings, neighbor! From over on the North Shore.

Where did you get that pug? I like it. Is that one from those guys in New Orleans who sell online?

I got it off eBay a few years ago. It's an Australian military puggaree.

New Cattleman arrived. I really like the shape of these hats.

I like the cattleman too. Could be a smidge taller in the crown but I won't whine about it. For me, the Cattleman epitomizes the outback style on any continent.

I agree. It is a good all-round hat regardless of where one is in the world.

Impressive! Reminds me of some of the Rugged line of hats Bob Jessee makes at Black Sheep Hat Works. Look at his Mozambique, Serengeti, ans Tsavo hats.

I have a Serengeti. It's a fantastic hat! Unfortunately moths ate it up all along the pug. One hole almost goes completely through the felt. I was quite upset when I discovered that.

Those are nice looking hats for sure. Makes me want to pack up some gear and take up a challenge.

That would be a very disappointing discovery.

My Akubra brothers, can someone tell me if the CEO is a snap brim? It seams like the name and the bound edge would imply a snap brim; however all the photos I see of it the brim is turned down front and back. The Akubra website was no help. Can anyone confirm the brim for me?

I am unsure about the CEO being a snap brim. However, if none chimes in soon, I would send an inquiry through The Hattery's website www.hatsdirect.com and ask them. They usually reply rather quickly.

Or www.everythingaustralian.com.au and ask Sam .

Thank you. I'll follow it up.

My sister has one and yes the brim is turned down all the way round

Thanks for the assist. I've only seen them down so with your confirmation I'm going to assume they are not snap brims. That's what I needed to know. Thanks again.

They look like a fedora with the brim turned down. To my eye they always looked a little odd. Formal and casual at the same time. But it does look very distinctive.
