News from Major Moore [Akubra news]

RBH · Jan 15, 2012

I just spoke with Mike Moore and he is at the National Western Stock Show in Denver.
He ask me if I would let everyone know that he will soon be carrying Akubra hats [through David Morgan] at his Buckaroo Hatters shop in Covington TN.
Mike has stated more than once that the Campdraft is one of the finest production hats made today.
Very soon we can get one from him.
Congrats Mike!

That's great Rusty.

RBH · Jan 15, 2012

Yes, he told me before he left that Akubra would be there and he was going to talk with them.
I am glad it worked out!

Excellent news. That Glen Grey CD will get harder than ever to resist.
Sounds as though this will be a smart business move for Maj. Moore.

Wow! That is great news! That will shorten the shipping times.

Having no experience with Akubra, I really cannot say much, other than to say that I know the proprietor, and based on that knowledge I would presume he placed quality toppermost in his criteria. Shame on those competitors that failed.

That is some good news. I will have to check his site out. Thanks for the information.

I hope he will carry the bluegrass green and the glen grey colors.

The Wiser Hatter · Jan 16, 2012

I know Major Moore went to bat with Stetson on the Strat and they blinked. Akubra wants business and will not blink. I am sure he will be working on getting the hats we all want in the high quality that Akubra can provide.

Good to see that Akubra will sell it outside of OZ ! Now we'll see if they produce it in more colors than the three offered in OZ !

Hear hear! They'd get a lot more business that way.

That would be good - but to date I believe Everything Australian is the only source for the BG and I know Hats Direct is the only source for the GG.

I am thinking of adding the Glen Grey to join my stable of Silverbelly, Taupe Fawn, and Bluegrass Green.

I always wondered why David Morgan doesn't carry the Campdraft (and a few other styles).

MOST excellent news. Now I wonder if we can put together enough interest to get a run of Campdrafts in Moonstone????
We've done the Glen Grey & the Deluxe in Silverbelly.....HHHMMMMmmmmmmm?????

RBH · Jan 17, 2012

That is what I am thinking!

I think this is a great development for the Major. :eusa_clap

The big question is -- will the Major be stocking the upcoming Fed V?
