Akubra Overload

Ok now you guys have done it. Telling me about the sale. Please mark your calendars and remind me in 4 months a taupe CD should be on my doorstep...
I think Taupe will be a nice versatile color. I have a Taupe Fawn & really like it.

Before following and learning here on the lounge I had disregarded the Akubra line of hats mistakingly assuming they were all outback Aussie style with lamp shade brims hanging down front and back. Picked up this 3 1/4” brim Bushman in Moonstone and pretty much wore it all winter.

It’s a great hat, really like it’s bluish grey color, bound brim and dimensions.

Nice hat! Did you bash it yourself?

Did it shrink at all since it was new?

It's been 7 years, I need to Akubra again. Going to Sydney in January for a cruise. Thinking of getting a Cattleman, perhaps something else like a Traveller. Previous purchase was a Lawson in Heritage Fawn. Starting my research now.
My most recent purchase is the Wentworth in Sorrel. Greta color and great look and feel IMHO.

Sorry for my delay in providing pics. I haven't been a member of a forum for a few years and my photo posting skills are out of date. That said, you got a glimpse of the Moonstone Bushman above, so I thought I'd show the NT as well.

My problem is that both colors look great and it’s hard to decide between them. You had the right idea by just getting both.

Can anyone identify the style of this Akubra hat listed on ebay?

https://tinyurl.com/y4s3u5jw

The last photo in the ad shows writing on the front of the sweat band where I've seen the hat style written for other Akubra hats. I can't figure out what it says and don't know enough about these hats to identify it from the other photos.

Thanks in advance,
Russ

I can't make it out. Looks like "Long--t-n" to me but that doesn't bring anything up. It's Imperial grade so if you like the style & dimensions then you know about what you would be getting.
