Felt felt felt felt felt.

I've worn my Akubras in 100+ before, no big deal. Of course, I'm not a sweater - but even so a felt hat will work better. Trust me.

Just think Indiana Jones.

Stampede string

Slightly off topic I know, but thank you Kokopelli for making me aware of stampede strings. I have often wondered about that problem. I have just recieved several from the site you mentioned, great idea, a bit cowboyish but as we are having storm force winds here at the moment, it solves the problem, and easily removeable. However I was looking forward to my souvenir of the wild west, they arrived with a label 'made in china' on them. More on topic Fleiger why not wear your pachuti panama ,that having seen you buy one I followed your example (hope you dont mind) .Nice hat it is too and folds up in its balsa wood box,together with one of these stampede strings, might solve the problem.

I would use my Pachacuti if it wasn't for the small fact that it's used for "hat-shaping experiments" at the moment and right now does not really look like anything anyone would like to put on his head on a trip like this. :eek: :eusa_doh:

You got a balsa wood box with yours? I did not. :rage:

Cheers
