    Thanks. It's a really shallow center dent.

    Akubra Overload

    Well, my Sydney arrived a few days ago. It was a little delayed because of the storm Seattle got. I don't know if I'm qualified for a review, but I will say that I really like it. It's not as soft as I expected it to be. It's held my dry bash just fine. Maybe it's just my bash, but it doesn't...

    Akubra Overload

    Just ordered a Sydney in Regency Fawn from David Morgan. Excited to get it as it will be my first new felt hat. All others have been vintage.

    Michael, how do you like the Sydney? Is the color of the ribbon as close to the color of the hat as the photo implies?

    What Kind of Hats Can't You Stand?

    Can't stand hats with brim snapped down in the back and up in the front. I see a lot of kids wearing them that way now. Maybe it's not the hat, but the wearers I can't stand.

    The Curse of Indiana Jones

    Stepping into an elevator yesterday, someone looked at me and said "nice fedora". To which a second person already in the elevator replied "that's not a fedora, it's and Indiana Jones hat". I just chuckled and said "thanks".

    Surprising find at Target

    Walking around Target, and was surprised by some hats that had a bit of a larger brim than you would normally see there. Of course they were super cheap and made in China, but maybe this is a good sign of wider brims becoming a little more mainstream.

    NY Times article on city's hat shops and one on JJ Hats......

    I've been to the Soho Arth store a couple times. Cool vibe, relatively small, and way over priced (in my opinion) for the majority of the hats they had on display. Most of which were wool stingys. Just my 2 cents.

    Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

    Picked up this Dobbs Oldham for ridiculously cheap... especially since I had a $25 ebay gift card :) I don't think it's ever been worn. For some reason it seems a size or so larger than 7 1/8...

    I'm looking for a semi-casual summer straw hat that can withstand a rain shower. I've narrowed it down to either a Sunbody or an Akubra Capricorn. I know the Capricorn isn't real straw. I live in FL, so I'm wondering if the Capricorn will be too hot with the humid air, but I also don't know how...

    I've searched and searched, so forgive me if this question exists elsewhere. Is it possible to buy hat ribbon without having to buy mass quantity? I want to replace the ribbon on one panama hat.

    Wide brim at Target

    Indeed. In my haste to snap a photo I didn't notice the bow was on the right side.
