    Akubra questions

    Thanks Hato, you too! I've admittedly seen little of the Lounge in the past couple months. Grad school has been busy, but now that I'm in the rhythm of things, and weather is starting to become more hat-friendly, I'm sure I'll be a little more active on the forums. Only so much I can contribute...

    Akubra questions

    If it helps at all in your decision, Fermenter, I've got a good pic of my Akubra Cattleman in Sand. I was trying out my new GoPro in preparation for some cinematic SCUBA. This was taken in Cabo San Lucas, and I had to alter the photo a bit so it wasn't washed out by the extreme sunlight and...

    Akubra Lightning Ridge

    That's an excellent question. DavidMorgan still sells the Lightning Ridge in the US. You might want to send them an email with this question. Oh, and welcome to the Lounge!

    Wanted: Fedora 7 3/8 Any Brand

    You and I share the same head size. If you haven't found anything yet, I might be able to help. I'm about to enter graduate school so every little bit of cash helps, and I don't think I'll have the opportunity to wear my nicer hats while I'm working in a laboratory. I've got a dark brown fedora...

    Got some good photos of the new Cattleman in Sand. These hats are nice, makes me wish I'd gotten one much sooner. The Sand color is best represented in the pic on the right.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    The Akubra Cattleman (Sand) came in today. I can already tell I'm gonna love this one. Too bad it came AFTER all the big thunderstorms went through the area lol. No good lighting today to show off the Sand color, but I'll try again later. Warning: iPhone lens makes brims appear bigger than they...

    Akubra styles for Women

    I seem to recall fellow Lounger Deelovely rocking an Akubra Leisure Time in Sand at one point. Found in another thread: Here's the original thread it came from.

    Akubra Lightning Ridge

    Congrats, I hope you enjoy the Lightning Ridge. It's a great hat. Perhaps DM's shipping will be faster than expected. I know that, for myself in East Tennessee, the estimated shipping time is 5 days. My DM purchases have always arrived in 3.

    That's a really nice shape-up you gave those hats, Fed. Well done.

    Akubra Lightning Ridge

    DavidMorgan, though it is seems more expensive than I remember it being when I bought it from them a couple of years ago. You could buy most Akubra hats WITH express shipping from EverythingAustralian.com.au for a lower price than any hat you buy at DM with standard shipping. However, I like to...

    Awesome lid, Crazy Dave. I'm been considering a Sombrero for a while, but the only good pics I could find of it were Bush Tucker Man pics. Looks great! Since I lost my Banjo Paterson last week, I've been looking around thinking about what Akubra to buy next. I had been considering the...

    Akubra Lightning Ridge

    I myself have had both of these hats at one time or another. I really liked the opal inset on the band and the sand color of the Lightning Ridge, and they were both great hats. The Lightning Ridge has a slightly wider brim, slightly shorter and more tapered crown in comparison to the Banjo...

    You, sir, make an excellent point. And welcome to the Lounge! Hope you enjoy your stay.

    Akubra Overload

    I haven't, actually. Can a Panama hold up under rainy weather? I was lookin' at Akubras mainly for outdoorsing/inclement weather. Most other times in hot weather I either wear a newsboy or no hat at all.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Thanks for asking, Hato. Great hat today btw. I graduated last May. I was doing an unpaid research internship at the Mote Marine Laboratory in Sarasota from September to January last year. Since then, I've been working in Knoxville as a research technician. I have just this past week received...

    Akubra Overload

    Welp, I just lost my Banjo Paterson a couple days ago. Hung it on my bike rack as I put my things into my car at the end of the work day and...well...had driven all the way back to my apartment before I realized I hadn't taken it off that rack. So, I'm in the market for a new Akubra. Thinking...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Well, I lost my new Akubra Banjo Paterson a few days ago when I hung it on my car's bike rack for a sec and...um...forgot to take it off as I drove away. On the bright side, I finally found a crease and brim shape that I really like on the bluegrass green Campdraft.
