    Love the color! Love the hat! I don't have any in sand yet, and I've been eyeing that color for a while. Definitely on my list, but not sure which style of hat quite yet. Leaning towards Cattleman or Tablelands. Just not sure.

    Sorry to hear that you've been waiting so long. Mine came to Japan in just 3 days from Everything Australian. Ordered on Dec 10th and arrived on Dec 13th to my door. One thing I usually do is call the store to make sure that they have the one I want in stock. I've also ordered from The Hattery...

    Awesome collection! I started building mine in September. So far: Traveller (fern), Vintage Snowy River (Tan), Stylemaster (Loden). I can't stop wearing them and I can't stop thinking about getting more.

    Thanks. Yeah, I thought so given the conditions that you mentioned. I've always had cords on my hiking hats, but they were made from synthetic materials. Now that I've gone to fur felt, I'm trying to decide whether of not to but a cord on my hat. For what I call my city hats like my Stylemaster...

    Awesome looking hat and looks great on you! Did you get the size 56?

    I scored a vintage Snowy River for $43 USD last month. It has the gold-key, size tag and I guess it's about 25 years old. It came curled up quite a bit on the sides, so I've now learned to steam hats over a kettle! That was a first. I flattened it out some, and prefer this look. Also raised the...

    Fern is my absolute favorite color in the Akubra line-up. I've been eyeing those fern Banjo Patersons at the Hattery for a while, and would have pulled the trigger had they had my size. I think it's a very special, limited-edition for the Banjos and I really hope that they do a restock at some...

    Shrinkage report: Am I ever happy! OK, so I've had my Stylemaster for about 3 weeks now. My head measures 54.7cm. In my first Akubra, a Traveller, I have a size 56, and I have a pretty thick piece of foam inserted in the back of the band that is about 8mm thick but it's a spongy material. The...

    I’m impressed with the quality of my Akubra through and through. I just love having one on!

    I’m definitely happy with mine. Got caught in light rain with my Traveller for the first time. The hat kept me dry without problems.

    Hi GLewis. To be honest, as a foreigner here, I get so many looks even without the hat. There is a fair bit of a hat culture here, so wearing one is not completely out of the ordinary. Of course, far from everyone wears hats, but there are a decent amount of hat wearers around my town...

    Had a Stylemaster in Loden shipped to me to go with my Traveller. Now I have an Akubra for the city and another for the country. I didn't think I'd like the dark brown as much as I do. The Stylemaster is proving to be super versatile. Here's me putting it through some paces. . . Going to work...

    Hi All. First time poster here. My Akubra journey has begun in earnest. Here's my very first one, a Traveller in Fern, picked up from Strand Hatters in Sydney. I'm an American living in Japan, and I try to spend as much time as possible in Australia and New Zealand. I had no idea about Akubras...
