I didn't know whether to put this in the Akubra Overload or the Conversion Corral thread; so, Ill just post it in a new thread, and if the mods want to move it, I'm cool with that.
This hat started life as an Akubra Stockman. I'm a long oval, and the hat guy at a local western wear store tried...
I'm a long oval as well and have trouble finding hats that will fit other than custom.
I bought one of the Akubra Travellers and like it. It stays in the truck in a hat saver, and if it gets messed up, I'm not out nearly the amount of money I would be if one of my custom hats was ruined. The...
In a lot of the "Old West" pictures, the cowboys have their hats pushed further back on their heads than you'll see most folks wearing a cowboy hat in present times.
This apple fell right next to the tree as did my father respectively. My grandfather was 5'7" tall; my father is 5'9" tall, and...
I have two custom made outback fedoras, but they are reserved for knocking about. There is too much chance of their getting damaged in my day to day activities. While they aren't as nice, I like my wool fedoras because I won't be out of a lot of money if they get damaged. The drawback is that...

They do need an updated web presence. I emailed them earlier this week but haven't gotten a response yet. I'll give it until later next week before making a follow up call as I suspect they may be at the big rodeo.
I was in Fairplay this summer and was just meandering around town when I saw the shop. They were unpacking from a cowboy action shoot. Smitty was kind enough to answer my questions, and then he offered to take a sizing and give me the template. I went ahead and ordered the hat. I have a...
In the "Westerns Anyone" thread, a member posed the question as to whether or not the Gun Club hats were "westerns". I posited that they were more outdoor/safari. I think you are much more likely to see Gun Club hat on someone shooting clays or hunting than on a cowpoke.
While I have no idea...
