Akubra Adventurer? Really?

The Adventurer has a longer brim that is turned down in the front and back while the Fed has a shorter snap brim. And I think they use different blocks, but I could be wrong.

The adventurer is indeed a different hat. The blocks are different than the Fed, the brim is larger and does not snap. If you're looking for something to try and go for the Indy look you want the fed, David Morgan is somewhat misleading in trying to tout the adventurer as an indy hat, it's not the right hat. As said above, the Fed can only be purchased from Hats Direct in Australia. I'd probably just order a 59. Have the feeling the 60 would be sitting on your ears.
