Thanks for the responses! Always can count on the members here! I am considering that as a purchase. I'm not seeing any availability on Fawn or tan Campdrafts, I may wait to see if any start to show up in June.
Hi Folks, I'm just wondering if anyone has experience with Miller hats, 100% fur felt (rabbit) underwelt brim in several sizes including 2 3/4, roan leather sweat and satin lining, range of available colors, the "Covington #345" Any ideas how they compare to Akubras?The pricing is roughly...
"Crown Height- ~ 92mm (measured from where low point on crown to base of the internal leather sweat band)"
Doesn't that sound like they are measuring inside from the lowest point of the telescope to the base of the leather sweatband? I'm trying to figure out if you push the telescope out if the...
By the way Cuvier, I'm also looking at the Pastoralist on Everything Austrailan"s site. It Would need to be rebashed to a center dent with a pinch for my tastes but that's possible only I'm not sure of the open crown height.

Hi, Does anyone know the "unbashed" crown height of the Pastoralist vs the Campdraft? The seem similar in brim size etc. but it's hard to tell on the crown. The Pastoralist is currently avaialble in a few colors that I'm interested in that don't seem to be offered in the Campdraft, Thanks in...
I "discovered" CAS for myself in 1996, joined here in 2005 as part of a search for hats. I shoot in New Jersey with The Quinton Mavericks and the Jackson Hole Gang as "Johnny Crockett" although it's been tough to get out in the last 10 years. I shoot Italian 1873 SAA copies in .45 Colt an...

periodic cleaning with saddle soap and re-oiling...
Three things come to mind that could also have effected those statistics, WW1, The Great Depression and WW 2. Millions? of young men in the military, many factories of all kinds out of business or converted to
war essentials and general lack of disposable income for many people.
I saw the same listing and question and felt compelled to send the seller
a note of encouragement and recommend they block the questioner. I somehow was embarassed for all of us interested in hats by the rude question!:rage:
