    Katniss leather jacket desired

    1961MJS, good point about the length. The picture that Dinerman posted shows that your idea/observation is spot-on. The most workable length seems to be about the same as what is being sold as a "car coat" in that it is long enough to protect but short enough to not cause a problem for sitting...

    Katniss leather jacket desired

    Dinerman, what would the style be called? It was referred to as a hunting jacket, but we all know about movies and their sometimes iffy technical accuracy. It doesn't really seem to resemble too closely any of the styles I have seen here on the lounge or at the various purveyors' web sites that...

    Akubra Snowy River: Could someone measure hat's OPEN-crown height for me?

    Hey H Weinstein. Reblock? Not really. Lots of reworking of the crown to maximize the height and try to get it up off my balding head. When I had a full head of hair, it didn't bother me. I did finally get it up to where I can wear it without constant annoyance. If you can afford to...

    Katniss leather jacket desired

    HandyMike, actually, if you took the "dr. who" jacket, shortened it a bit, made it single-breasted, and used a zipper instead of the buttons, the look would be about right, I think. Then we could worry about the ability to move in it. What do you think?

    Any idea how long it takes for the system to realize the fact?

    Fedora Lounge Edition {Everything Australian } Akubra Camp Draft 2 5/8s brim

    I find that interesting. Neither of the ones I got really did. They were really insistent on staying "up". My nephew finally gave up and decided he rather liked it up. I kept at it until the front brim stayed down. Unfortunately, it now won't go up. If it was just one hat, I wouldn't be...

    Alley Kat Hat Co

    That was a question I would like answered also. I think I found one mention of price in the thread. Certainly people's expenditures are there own business, but I would like to know.

    Akubra Campdraft

    G.Durand mentioned getting the hat "reflanged". I think that I may want to do this. Is there anyone in particular that would be a good choice to have do that? Someone that wouldn't leave me hatless too long?

    Alley Kat Hat Co

    Hey Preacher Man! Good to hear. I found a reference early in the thread that Tim only had forms for 7 1/2 and up. There was a reference to some new old ones getting acquired through the help of another forum member, but nothing confirmed.

    Katniss leather jacket desired

    I would like to get a jacket sort of like a male version of the Katniss jacket from Hunger games. Something that is good for the woods or the or the office. Designed for easy movement whether shooting a bow or a gun; cracking a whip or throwing a knife. Does anyone have a jacket that I could...

    Does anyone know what sizes Tim is able to work with now? I went through the whole thread and didn't find the info.

    Akubra Snowy River: Could someone measure hat's OPEN-crown height for me?

    In all seriousness, if crown height is an issue for you, you really don't want a Snowy River unless you don't mind having it touching the top of your head. I spent years trying to get mine to where it didn't annoy me. Wearing a Fed 4 and a campdraft now.

    Fedora Lounge Edition {Everything Australian } Akubra Camp Draft 2 5/8s brim

    I do have one question about the campdraft in general and this one in particular. Is the campdraft supposed to be a snap-brim? Mine seems to want to be a snap-brim but can't quite do it. I ended up having to treat it as though it were not a snap-brim. I have a Fed 4 that most definitely is a...

    Fedora Lounge Edition {Everything Australian } Akubra Camp Draft 2 5/8s brim

    I love mine. The backup one that I purchased ended up going to my 12-year old nephew. I think it may be the start of another hat person.

    Wested dr. Who jacket

    Hey Seabass, I don't have enough posts to do private messaging. I'd like to talk to you about this jacket. How can I contact you?

    Fedora Lounge Edition {Everything Australian } Akubra Camp Draft 2 5/8s brim

    Hey Duper, Yes, I have measured both my head and my various hats multiple times. I went to the local western wear store to try on their hats. I read EA's FAQ, and I read all the Akubra sizing threads I could find here at the Lounge. I still just got more and more antsy about it. I finally...

    Fedora Lounge Edition {Everything Australian } Akubra Camp Draft 2 5/8s brim

    Actually, I ordered mine a week ago, and then got so antsy over my size (it isn't as though we will be able to exchange these if we get it wrong)that I ordered another in the next size down yesterday afternoon.

    Fedora Lounge Edition {Everything Australian } Akubra Camp Draft 2 5/8s brim

    I have a question for DJH about the BG color. He graciously posted a picture of two hats in BG, but they sure don't look the same. Could DJH or someone else that has seen a BG hat "in the flesh" comment on that please? More information about the color may help some waverers come on board.
