Your Hat Likes it Rough

[The Good]

When I'm wearing my Akubra Federation, I like to treat it rough indeed. I wore it, and continue to do so in just about any and all conditions faced; countless rainfalls (light and heavy), snow (once), blazing hot (100 degrees!) desert weather on more than a couple of occasions, and through the sweat of strenuous activities such as hunting, hiking/hillwalking, and bicycling. It's been through a lot in a little under a year. I think I can see this one becoming my beater for rough wear, it is already treated as such. Sometimes, I like to think that I'm wearing this hat much in the same way the fictional character Indiana Jones would've during his travels, although this is not strictly speaking an Indy hat to me.

If I get an Open Road or Campdraft next, I may treat it rather roughly as well.
