It's more of an Olive/Brown that the "Tan" it is named. My Akubra Bushman from DM:

Hey Jimmy, can you post us a few 'inside' shots?

RBH · Dec 14, 2010

I still want more info on the Stetson/Akubra.
But here is my green Open road.

Gotta throw the penalty flag on that one, monbla -- no posting brown hats in The Green Machine!

monbla256 · Dec 14, 2010

IT IS AN OLIVE (GREEN) Brown

I agree..

monbla256 · Dec 14, 2010

I know you don't agree, but get this puppy outside and in the daylight and it is an Olive Green/Brown shade, NOT anywhere near a Tan as it's called !!

I've been hesitant to post my BGCD until I could get a good pic, but this is the best I could come up with. Do I get bonus points for the green backpack? Jimmy's right, green IS hard to capture!

As green is my favorite color for clothing, expect more contributions from me in the future, especially as I prepare to entire the world of custom hats. Until then let me say that the last few pages (starting with Dinerman's hatsunami) have been INCREDIBLE!

Nice pic, Neo. Dapper rake.

Thanks, delectans. It doesn't compare to your to how sharp your tungsten and bone hats look, though

Thanks, Neo, but I would beg to differ. Your hat is fantastic, and you wear it very, VERY well!

I like that I am not the only one with earbuds in, in my pictures.

They sometimes get mistaken here on the Lounge for stampede strings lol.

Those 15-20 minute walks across campus can get pretty boring, and the music helps alleviate the boredom, as well as block out any nasty comments that might get flung my way

To see that particular style in that particular color is just amazing.

Congrats!

It really is a superb lid, can we see a a shot of the liner?
