I am about to take delivery of my second Fed IV (although Deluxe this time). The first of which has a tear drop.
For something different, I was considering getting a cattlemans crease (blasphemy, I'm sure).
Has anybody done this with a Fed IV, and if so, would you have any pictures? I've done...
I stumbled across a 'relatively' new hattery (i.e. since last September) in Robertson, NSW (Aus):
The Highland Hattery
Lovely owner, Michelle, and a beautiful store. Also plenty of Akubra and Avenal hats. It has real atmosphere, much like The Hattery at Katoomba. Loved it!
I'll definitely be...
RM Williams. Look no further. You can definitely get them in the UK (as we saw them on our last visit). But you will pay a premium.
Will last forever and then some.

Thanks, Outside Dog.

Dear Loungers
We are in the midst of planning a 4 week road trip from Spokane into Nth Idaho down through Yellowstone to Monument Valley and Sth Utah.
[A long drive, but we are used to driving 2 hrs + to get to the shops...jks]
As Australians, we are spoilt for choice with Akubras. However...
My newest addition to the hat rack... an Akubra Angler in Loden (size 60).
I've always been interested in the Angler, but had never seen one 'in the felt'. Akubra stock is low EVERWHERE, but I stumbled across a size 60.
Tried it on... loved it... wore it out. It's the first 'real hat' I've...
