Akubra Overload
That would be funny! I hope you greeted them in Japanese! I bet you do get a lot of attention; especially in rural areas! Akubras are nice hats. I’ve been to stores where the salesmen told me that they have nice hats. They turn out to be wool felt, unlined and not nearly as nice as my Akubras! -

How do the Japanese react to a gaijin wearing a nice hat? -
Need some feedback on wearing fedoras
I enjoyed watching the Black List! Even though I thought Ray Redington was nattily dressed, his fedoras seemed like they needed more brim. I have found that as I’ve worn my fedoras my style in clothes has increased. Maybe you’ll find this to be the case. -

Akubra Overload
It is an Akubra bowler. I got it from Strand Hatters, and it was one of the last two in my size! Wish Akubra still made them! -

I wore my bowler yesterday, and people said I looked like Winston Churchill! -
Akubra slouch hat
Sorry I didn’t notice this sooner! My hat didn’t have a liner, and my wonderful daughter bought it for me last Christmas! I did, however, tell her where to get it. -
Akubra slouch hat
I really like mine. It’s charcoal gray. I shaped it into a fedora, and I’ve gotten many compliments on it! It does say Superfine Quality, but I don’t know I don’t know if it refers to the type of felt. -

Need hat advice
You’ll be ok. I’ve never had someone say anything negative to me. Oddly, since I’ve started wearing real hats, my clothes have gotten better; I seldom wear t shirts, and a fedora looks good with a long sleeve button down shirt and jeans. -

“WTF’ Hats,” that are hard to believe...
I know it’s not a raccoon, but the Daniel Boone song runs through my head: Daniel Boone was a man! Yes a big man… -
The social hierarchy of hat styles
I’m really self conscious how I look. I just feel like the bowler needs a suit, and I don’t have one. -
The social hierarchy of hat styles
I understand wanting a top hat even if you don’t have a “need” for it! I bought an Akubra bowler for the same reason-and I haven’t worn it! -
Akubra Overload
Hmm...I don’t think any of the sweatbands on my Akubras did that. I’ve read that in Australia a lot of the working hats Akubra makes have no liners. I’m sure on a town hat, like the Adventurer, would have a liner. I would imagine a liner keeps the hat from getting grungy from someone’s greasy... -
How do folks react to your hat wearing?
I think it’s interesting that people will buy a pair of shoes that la I find it remarkable that people will buy a pair of basketball shoes for $2-300 that will last a year, but won’t buy a high quality hat for $150. They’re shocked to find that you’ll have to pay that much.
