Well done. I should probably get me Fed. Lol

I had my heart set on a Cattleman in sand. I got it in the new branding! It's my first Cattleman. Most of my hats are city hats, but I like this one a lot.

Note the new color of the sweatband. It feels softer than the old ones. New tags for the size and care instructions. Feels great on the head and has that new Akubra smell!

This new, more durable and focused tagging sceme is sending me positive signals that Akubra has come into good business hands under the sale to Tattarang. Just feel bad for the dealers that weren't under Akubra ownership before the sale.

Business is brutal

Darned if I didn't just pull the trigger an a second vintage Snowy River, this time in grey. I was looking at eBay sales to find one similar to my brown one for a female friend, and made a very low offer for one in great shape, with my preferred thin ribbon instead of the leather hatband.

It was only fitting that I got my Fern Cattleman from Brisbane Hatters because it was at this very store where I really saw an Akubra for the first time back in August of 2024. I wanted to get a hat from there at that time but circumstances prevented me from buying one that day. That's another story.

At any rate, now I had a bit of a problem on my hands. I had two Cattlemans in Brisbane, but only one head. So, how was I supposed to get both of them back to Japan on the plane? Well, I begged my wife to wear one back, and she agreed! View attachment 692865

The better looking one wearing Loden Green?

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!

I agree.
