movie hats that inspired you...
The hat that inspires me the most from that movie is Captain Tom Pickett's. I can't find any screencaps of it with google but I'll bet it's a Stratton Lowrider. -
Justified FX Hat
Hey, Johnny, which Justin sraw hat are you using here? I really like the way your hat turned out with your makeshift block -
Akubra Overload
Got an Akubra Territory from David Morgan that lacked the vent holes. A Territory was on the short list back when I first discovered Everything Australian and Aussie Bush Hats online but I decided on a hat without holes in the side of the crown instead. When I saw this one being sold at a... -
movie hats that inspired you...
Movie hats that inspired me to buy? First and foremost, Angel Eyes hat from The Good, the Bad and the Ugly. First hat I ever bought was a black Stetson Gunfighter with a 3.25 in flat brim and a low telescope crown at Riley and McCormick's in Cowtown. They had a table full on sale for ten bucks a... -
Miller Hats - no longer decent quality?
I've got my eye on a couple of their offerings. Didn't know that their quality might have declined -

Akubra sizes: true to the numbers?
Some of my Akubras (size 60) fit perfectly and some are a trifle snug, with one too small. I could stretch it but I think I'll sell it instead. They do seem a bit variable in size in my experience. Lately I've started ordering size 61 since shimming works pretty well. The one I wear the most has... -
Akubra makes shopping hard!
I think you have the right answer there, Superfine is just not as well sanded as Imperial quality. Being a military work hat, a really smooth finish is less important than on a dress hat -
Return of the Son of the Homemade Safari Hat Threads
In case anybody is interested, David Morgan has a Territory for sale without vent holes, it's offered at a discount since it's technically a fault. https://www.davidmorgan.com/shop/product/2206/the-territory-no-eyelets -
Flattening Brim & Stitching Sweatband?
I've had good luck just wetting the brim with a spray bottle and setting it on a flat surface to dry but I wasn't trying to get it perfectly flat like yours. You did a good job on that hat. -

Akubra crown heights and model info
I think you are overestimating the height of the crown on that Border. I reckon it's 4 to 4.5 inches at the front. There's a similar hat available from Golders of Toowoomba; http://www.golderstoowoombaroma.com/akubra/akubra-kanga-in-fawn/ I hope this answer isn't too late to do you any good -
Movie hats
That's true, they must have dragged it around behind a ute for miles to get that much character. This is the Border for those who don't remember it. Sadly no longer made. In fact they stopped making it just before I decided I couldn't live without one. It even came in my favourite Akubra... -

I hope this is the right thread for this question. Does anybody know which Akubra the villain wears in Wolf Creek? Looks like it could be an Akubra Border to me. -

Akubra Overload
That Kentucky Rancher reminds me of the Outlaw Josey Wales and the Mansfield is a low crowned Golden spur without side holes? and they both have the Arena horsehair hatband? Damn them, like I need more hats. OK, can anybody who has seen Sorrel tan irl tell me about it? Is it dark brown or light? -
Justified FX Hat
Both of you did a good job on the brimtrimming and your hats look great. Makes me wonder if a fellow needs 3 or 4 hats in this style with various brim widths. Not like I really need an excuse to buy another hat... -
Justified FX Hat
I'll keep my eyes peeled. That's the stuff Art keeps in his office, right? Love the scene where he refuses Raylan a refill so Raylan drinks his shot while his back is turned. Looking good, Project THX138. I invested in a brim trimmer for my hat slicing project. They come in 1/8 or 1/2 inch sizes. -
You did a good job and the hat suits you. You wear it well

I can't speak for anybody else but I'd love to see more. I love the show and everything about it from guns to hats to bourbon :)
