The Stetsonian panama seems to have vintage dimensions. A bit expensive, but the only one I know of with a full crown.

Just a modern Cooper A-2 with a stacked leather AVG inspired squadron patch. It's hot outside in Central Florida right now, but the office A/C is kept in the 60's.

Branded/Orchard G-1

Unfortunately not, though David Morgan stocks a somewhat similar (though a bit less dressy) Akubra hat called the "Range Hat". https://www.davidmorgan.com/shop/product/1330/hemp-range-hat Really the only significant difference I can see is the lack of brim binding.

Spring is coming here in Florida, and that means 90 degree heat, which means I need those $300 to go toward a Penman Panama hat.

Bump, I actually still have this.

In natural light it's less blue and looks a light gray. Also the Adventurer is very similar to the Fed IV because the Hattery is the only outlet allowed to carry the Fed IV, dunno if you knew that.

Schott G-1 Lookit that huge collar. When were G1 collars ever that big? Had to have been a product of 70's fasion influence.

I've always been partial to the Levis standard trucker jacket (70507). I currently wear this exact wash. The 0604 with corroded copper buttons. http://m.ebay.com/itm/191741020656?_mwBanner=1

Well, I'm not too sure about that particular brand, but the original A-2 jacket pattern had low armholes that cause it to ride up when you lift your arms.
