I am envious! I have wanted one of those for awhile now. I opted for the Heritage grade Silverbelly but that Mid-Brown is definitely next on the list. Wear it in good health!

Looks good, almost like a Fed IV in one of the pics.

Nice to see another (I assume) weight-lifter here as well!

That looks very nice! Good work on the bash as well.

Neophyte · Mar 4, 2011

That is amazing!

Good job Jenny and DarthBish. Looks like a couple of your photos are eligible for the "Hat on a Stick". thread.

Besides the wider ribbon is anything else is custom? Brim width?

fmw · Mar 4, 2011

Agreed. The brim width is perfect for you. Fine hat.

azhiker · Mar 4, 2011

Very nice hat, I keep saying I'll buy an Acubra. Guess I need to put words to actions!

scottyrocks · Mar 4, 2011

Looks great on you, Darth!

Jim2903 · Mar 4, 2011

Looks great. Makes me tempted to do something similar ... to a second CD; enjoying my silverbelly as-is. Damn shame to have to buy yet another hat

DarthBish · Mar 5, 2011

Thanks for the positive comments guys..

The brim width is the same as all Campdrafts, but I'll admit it...I've got a large head and full face so a wide brim suits it.
The crown is slightly taller than a Fed IV and seems fuller because of it.

Mid brown isn't a colour that they're generally made in, so there was a 12 week wait for it.

looks awesome with the wide band. Congrats!

The Good · Mar 5, 2011

That hat looks cool! The crown's higher than anything I'd consider wearing for myself right now, but it works and looks right on you, too. Great felt and ribbon colors.

DRB · Mar 5, 2011

That hat works perfectly for you.

Very nice indeed...reminds me of "Akubra's Squatter" except yours is with a bound brim edge.
