    Akubra Kiandra

    Mine hasn't done anything of that sort. it has been in both rain and snow and sun, the sun has slightly faded it, but that will happen. i don't know what to say regarding the color coming off... it sounds odd to me

    Akubra Kiandra

    Kiandra brim my brim is 3 1/4, yes 3 and 1/4, none of them are the measurements you cite, but... the color is chocolate brown and I got it from Solano's of New Mexico - they did a horrible job on vent holes, tried to fix it and totally embarrassed themselves by sending it back to me. But, I...

    Akubra Kiandra

    Kiandra I have one and love it. it is pretty stout and will hold off a Colorado winter pretty well. Out of the box looks like advertised, and is a bit stiff. I wear about a 58 1/2, so got the 59. At first a bit large, but seems to shrink down to size quite nicely. I recommend it, and like...

    Akubra Value is Soaring Right Now

    Mexican superfine or imperial so after looking at the Akubra site it looks like the Mexican is only Imperial Quality. I like the looks of it, but, my what a large brim. Standing tall at 5'2" the larger brim makes me wonder if I'll look like a thumbtack. Nice binding, and colors.

    South Carolinians: A hat for Charleston in mid-May?

    I grew up in Savannah, a sister city to Charleston. Expect hot and muggy. Felt would be out of the question for me, I like the idea of souvenir shopping, inevitably there will be something there. Charleston is very historic, enjoy the south.

    Panama Hats for Summer

    I had the same question. When it arrives I'll let you know if I wish I had spent the extra cash.

    Panama Hats for Summer

    It sounds like things down south are pretty rough. I hope that mine is in the mail too. I ordered 11-25-07. If all looks good I will be ordering again. When it comes I'll post a pic or 2.

    Why EBAY never ceases to be entertaining

    Annoying energy seemed to rule the day, so I guess that it was only fitting. But, there was a bid, and I would have paid more.

    Why EBAY never ceases to be entertaining

    the Hat Nazi Last night I emailed an Ebay seller about the real color and quality of a Texas Hatter custom. I also placed a bid. Here is my question to the seller, "Your description says that this is chocolate brown but your photos look gray, is it really a dark brown, or lighter tan, or...

    The confidence for the hat

    Confidence - yes. get a hat you like, with both style and class, wear it, and be sure that you feel strong. It won't be long and the compliments will come. Some friends may make a remark on your newfound style, but the public won't know better. With each compliment will come more confidence...

    Open Road dilemma

    My first post, I figure the title would attract some good hits. Here is the dilemma. I really like the Open Road, but I want to go straw. Typically the cattlemans crown does not fit me real well. I like to wear my hats about an inch or 2 above the eyebrows. I generally need something along...
