How to stop sides of brim from curving?
scotty, I am the original poster, and I posted the message you quoted above. I have BOTH a 58cm Fed IV and a 59cm Campdraft. When I first got the Campdraft, I thought it was too big. I was actually plannig to sell it. After wetting the sweatband several times, and wearing the hat for a... -

How to stop sides of brim from curving?
I think the real answer is to replace the 58 with a 59. I have a 59 Campdraft and don't have that problem with it. However, I felt the 59 was too big when I got it. Now, it's great. I'd like to try anything short of getting a new hat. I'll pad the sides, but if I need a 59, making the... -

How to stop sides of brim from curving?
Folks, Hope all is well here. I haven't been on for a while. Although I love my 58cm Fed IV, I don't like it as much when I put it on. I've got a long oval cranium, and if I need to pull the hat down a little because of wind, the sides of the brim curve up in a wave. It looks horrible... -

Akubra Campdraft Taupe Fawn 59 for sale
Gents, Thanks for all the advice and kind words. Just remember, once I try any of these suggestions, the hat is mine. If the advice works, all the better for me since I like this particular Campdraft. If it doesn't... I'll be back here trying to sell it to someone that it WILL fit...- deadhead

What is it about the Campdraft?
Fitting a Campdraft (I reposted this from a short email trail in the Classified section. It's more appropriate here, or perhaps even some place else...) I acquired a 59cm Campdraft. It arrived on Christmas Eve. It's simply to big for my noggin, even though a 59cm Fed IV fits me just fine... -

Akubra Campdraft Taupe Fawn 59 for sale
INCLUDING shipping? Hmmmmm. I shopped around and was happy with my price, so that rate was not available when I ordered. I'd be willing to bargain, trade, whathaveyou if someone wanted to make an offer. I just wanted to explore the idea of selling it outright rather than paying the return...- deadhead

Akubra Campdraft Taupe Fawn 59 for sale
Folks, I have a 59cm Campdraft in Taupe Fawn that's simply too big for me. It arrived Christmas Eve from Australia. Earlier this year, I had purchased a 59 Fed IV and it fits nearly perfectly, so I ordered the Campdraft in 59 as well. Imagine my disappointment, sitting in front of the...- deadhead

New Fed Moonstone IV has arrived
Gentlemen, I wanted to pass on a few things, and pose a few questions. My Fed IV arrived today from Hats Direct in Australia. I ordered it on 25 Nov. It's 3 Dec. 'Nough said. I measured my noggin at 59cm and ordered a 59cm hat. Even though I consider myself a 23" long oval, the... -

Replacement hat band?
Folks, I know this thread is old, but I'd love to see the pics on the first page (I get the red X in the little white box) about ribbon replacement, and if anyone has a link to how-to-make a bow, that would be great as well. Thanks much, deadhead -

Stretching a hat - advice please....
Jack, Thanks. There is quite a nice men's clothing store with a large variety of hats 25+ miles from my house--Stark&Legum in Norfolk. I took the drive. It was the right thing to do as the closer western store only had very stiff cowboy hats. Nice folks working there, too. Unfortunately... -

Stretching a hat - advice please....
My cranium appears to be a long oval... Folks, Greetings to all. This is my first post. Thanks for the forum. This thread seemed to be the closest wrt the questions I have. Apologies if the answers are elsewhere. I still have not obtained my first fedora, but I am serious about doing...
