I looked on sold completed. Their was no size 62 bushman in the tan color :(

Thought I'd ask the group here on what a fair price for a size 62 Akubra bushman would be. I had posted a wanted on the FB group and a fellow member had said, he had the hat I was looking for. What would a fair price to pay for it be? It's OOP and in a larger size so I'd guess their might be a...

I do know their is a 61 on ebay in moonstone, the guy wants $150 OBO Federation IV, I prefer a bit larger brim hence my wanting a bushman.

Looking to purchase a bushman in Nullarbor tan. I'm a tiny bit smaller then 7 3/4 so need it in that size.

Anybody know about them? Just bought a used hat off of ebay and was curious about it.

Just bought this guy the other day. https://www.ebay.ca/itm/134900791626 A Bailey New West. Going to need a bit of a reshaping and cleaning but otherwise looks nice.

Found some burlap ribbon at my local walmart. Think it looks nice. Might try dyeing some a khaki and trying it.

Might check David Morgan, think they sell them? https://www.davidmorgan.com/shop/product/80/aussie-slouch-hat-open-crown/

Yeah, the felt on the slouch felt more corse then the felt on my snowy river.

I'm going to see what's available at my local fabric store, otherwise I'll order online.

Couple more photos.

Ok, finally got around to taking photos of the Akubra. I find with my head shape, extremely comfortable! Had just bought a black snowy river a little whil back, even though the same size, 62 cm, the snowy river seems to be a longer oval? shape. Probably my most favorite hat! Bascally learned...

The hat just arrived today. Just shaped it using some steam from a kettle. Going to post photos later today.

Very nice! I do have a couple fabric stores local to me, probably can find something that would work good.
