DblCoronaMS, if you do a search for Hats Direct, you'll find dozens of loungers who have nothing but praise for them. They are the only company to sell the Federation, and one of the best Akubra dealers. Their shipping is phenomenally fast, considering the distance, and thy have excellent customer service. By the way, they aren't just an internet company- I got my Federation at their brick and mortar store in Katoomba.

And if the hat doesn't work for you, you can probably sell it in the classifieds here and get more back than if you ship it back to AU.

DblCoronaMS: I can't praise Hats Direct enough re customer service. Re Akubras, be careful and take their advice regarding size, as they do shrink to fit.

I'm familiar with HD since they are the exclusive Fed dealer. I've heard nothing but good about them.

How much do they tend to shrink? A full size? More? The 7 1/8 I tried today was definitely too small and the 7 1/4 had a little wiggle room so I'm thinking the 7 1/4 should be OK. I'd be afraid to go one bigger than the 7 1/4.
