    Thank you! Wife has already given me a look, and said “How many do you need”, my response is: “Well, I need a grey one”

    ADAM ALLEY

    This just arrived. New sweat, but I’m a fan. It’s a Adam Fenmore in 7 1/4.

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

    Well, finally own a vintage hat. Not sure whom I was bidding against, I think I paid a bit much for it, but oh well. an Adam Fenmore in a nice dark brown. Appears to have a new sweat, and there are two small moth nips. Overall, a pretty nice hat. Could use a cleaning and a steaming.

    Help me find this hat?

    Snagged the Stetson Stratoliner Premier in Cornhill (right) as my first hat from Delmonico Hatter in New Haven, CT. Yes, they did Military Discount, but it is the same 15% they offer during holiday sales. (CYBER20 is good until Dec 7th). I fell in love with the open crown and the ability to...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    Akubra Campdraft Deluxe today, and I must say, the binding of the CD matches the color of this ATF First Pattern Tanker jacket.

    This currently caught my eye: 40’s Adam? Does anyone happen to know the history of the brand? I think its a sharp looking hat!

    How we might get past the "hat phase"

    Been wearing ballcaps every day for the past 9-10 years or so. Decided that I might as well invest in quality and durability. It’s just another accessory to an ever changing wardrobe. (Don’t get me wrong, I still love my old ratty ass ballcaps) So, I took the plunge on a Campdraft and a...

    Thank you, I’m super fond of it already! I’ve seen the ribbon change! Your wife does great work! Your CD’s look exceptional! It’s what gave me the inspiration to give it a whirl. Congratulations on the Anniversary! Cheers to the two of you!

    Akubra Overload

    It’s the heritage quality. Figured I’d get one that was being discontinued before they were all gone. Kind of wish I also did the moonstone, but oh well. The Hattery shows all out of stock besides SB. I may run to a fabric store and try my hand at making a ribbon while I have some down time...

    Not sure how I feel about the tight diamond bash, but the more I work it, the softer it gets. Might leave it as is, see how it goes. I’m really enjoying the felt and feel of this campdraft.

    Look forward to seeing it. The shipping should be exceptionally quick even coming from the land down under. I’ve been debating on either moonstone or tawny for my next purchase.

    I’d personally start with BG for a more “casual” color and bit universal for wear. If ya dig it enough, spring on a Moonstone!

    Akubra Overload

    Well, happy to say I’m an official Akubra owner. Friday last week I went ahead and ordered a Campdraft Deluxe in SB from the Hattery. It shipped Sunday, and arrived today. Talk about quick! I’m a 23 to 23-1/8”, so went ahead and ordered a 59cm. Seeing as I’ve read that the sweat on these tend to...

    Akubra Overload

    I appreciate the pointers. Went ahead and pulled the trigger on a SB Campdraft Deluxe. Came to $150 express shipped. ($10 off right now on the Hattery). I’m already gonna say it is a better price than the Strat I picked up. We’ll see how it goes, and I may go ahead and order a Fed IV in...

    Akubra Overload

    Well, after searching through here I’ve decided that I’m gonna pull the trigger on an Akubra for my next hat. I already have a Strat Premier in Cornhill, and have been debating on going for a Campdraft in Silverbelly, or a Fed IV in Heritage Fawn or Moonstone. What would be the most versatile...

    Thanks! We had overcast and occasional misting here in CT, wasn’t too bad, temperatures are holding up atleast. Still haven’t had to pull the winter coats out yet.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    I appreciate it! How has the Fed been taking to the bashing so far? Ive read Akubra tends to be a bit “stiff” and takes a little work to get some shape.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    Thank you! I appreciate it! I honestly fumbled the most with getting the pinch just right to my liking. I’m already debating on getting a Fed IV in either Moonstone or Heritage Fawn. Also have a Dobbs Forty on the ebay watchlist. Seeing everyones hats here has gotten me looking for more!
