Thanks NE: I guess the moral of the story is "Get thee to a Haterie" I admit the more I see myself in the Akubra the more I am liking it. I also own a straw Bailey (munroe). The brim is only 2" and the center dent crown is 4" in the front. I think I'll be happy if I split the difference...

I suppose it's just a matter of getting used to the style. While I like the look of a quality fedora, I don't like to draw a lot of attention to myself. I am 6'3" tall and go about 200#. I guess something proportional is the name of the game. I am sure Art and I will come up with a style...

Thanks a lot. I just bought an Akubra casual and it is taking some getting used to. I have gotten a few compliments. I also just purchased a Bailey monroe straw fedora for summer. I feel more comfortable with it. I'll look into your suggestions. Thanks again.

Thanks for the offer. Unfortunatley I am a 7 3/8

I have been trying to find a hat that will look good for me. I have a somewhat thin face and oval shaped head. I thought a hat with a shorter than typical crown would be appropriate. Any suggestions. While most proprioters will list the brim dimensions, the height of the crown is not always...

The Turin went for around $90 with about $65 for shipping. The Casual cost me $111 including shipping from within the U.S. I can't seem to find the Turin available anywhere here in the U.S.
