    Falcon Park Hattery

    I have one of Parkers creations, the Falcon, just as it is shown on the website. It is awesome to see it in person and is my favorite hat. It would be to dangerous for me to live close to Parker.

    Ask a question, get an answer

    One way to get around the chin strap holes is to have a little wider ribbon put on. I currently have 5 Akubras.

    Akubra Overload

    I am a 7 3/8 (59) and have ordered all my hats in that size in hopes that when they shrink a little they will fit perfectly. I did order my Adventurer in a 58 and it fits great right now. I tend to wear my hair longer or shorter depending on where I am at in the world. Here in Iraq I wear it...

    Akubra Overload

    I found a Squatter in Moonstone. I was trying to decide if I want another Stylemaster or the Squatter. The Sytlemaster I have right now is the acorn color. Either one would be fine I suppose.

    Pleats and cuffs are back babay!

    Pleated pants with cuffs went out of style? When did this happen? Pleated pants and cuffs is all I have ever worn.

    Now Forming! the Campaign Hat Corps

    My campaign cover is a Stetson, size 6 7/8. I have had it since 1985 when I first joined the Marine Corps Shooting Team at Quantico, Va. It was, and still is, the official head gear for the shooting teams. The black band is now brittle and broken but the hat is still in good shape for being 26...

    Best Golden Era fedoras in a post-'50s movie?

    "O' Brother Where Art Thou?" had a hat on every head it seems. Lots of variety as well.

    Military experiences.

    Joined the Marines in 1980 as an Aviation Ordnanceman. Was assigned to VMA 214, the Blacksheep when we were still flying A4's. Found out I could shoot and shot my way onto the Marine Corps Pistol Team and was stationed in Quantico, VA. Went Distinguished with the pistol in 1986. Shot on the team...

    Akubra Overload

    My avatar picture (drawing) is my Adventurer but if you go to my profile I have an actual picture of my wearing it. I think both look great on my head and if I could only choose one it would be the Fed. They fit the same but I just like the Fed better (a little). I wear the Adventurer in Iraq...

    Akubra Overload

    I actually have the Adventurer with me in Iraq and my Fed IV Deluxe at home. Really they are very similar with the felt a little better grade on the Fed IV Deluxe. Color is the same as is the ribbon from what I can remember. My Fed IV Deluxe is a 59 and I ordered the Adventurer in a 58 since I...

    That Squatter is a nice looking lid and I don't own one of those. It was your pic James of the CEO that caused me to buy that hat. Stop posting pics James, I can't afford it.
