Akubra Overload

[RickP]

I have no need to buy a "crushable" hat... I just buy Pre-Crushed hats on ebay lol. I DO have apackable Pendleton wool hat that is my nasty weather hat..... like it a lot but its just too hot for summertime use here

A while back I picked up a nice used Akubra Stockman, But its a hair tight ( its a 58 and my other akubras are all 59's). It also feels a bit short and bottoms out on the point on my noggin . Im debating doing a little work including seeing if I can do something about reshaping a bit taller. I may decide NOT to molest it and just trade for something more appealing, but was curious if anyone had modified their Stockman?

Howdy Akubra lovers.....I picked up a really clean Akubra Stockman a while back, and unfortunately I didnt notice it was a size 58 and I wear a 59. I really hate the thought of Stretching and molesting this basically new condition hat just to get it to fit. If anyone might have a 59 Akubra hat thats too big and would be interested in a straight swap, just message me. Does not have the original braided leather hatband, but has a nice adjustable braided horsehair band. I really dont have any big preferences ( havent found an Akubra that I didnt like) Id even entertain things that ARENT Akubras. Rick

Hopefully this doesnt tread on any rules, but I couldnt find anything that said no so here goes!
