Akubra Stylemaster - what is Loden?

[andrew_AU]

I have a Hampton in Cedar Brown. Is Loden lighter or darker?

The loden looks like a darker brown to me, but I'm only going by internet pictures. I haven't handled one.

Thanks FedOregon. I've seen pics were it looks more red-brown. It would be good to hear from someone that has handled both...

I'm wearing mine today actually Andrew! It's a dark brown, close to chocolate; I ordered mine from Everything Australian some years back and asked for a black ribbon on it,
so it kind of looks a bit like an Indiana Jones hat colour-wise.

Thanks for the replies.

I think Loden will be too dark for me.

The good news is that I now have an Acorn Fawn Stylemaster in its way... I should have it early next week
