I think these can look good with the brim up if the brim is not more than 2 3/4 or so. This is evidenced by the various pics above. The presidents, Harvey Keitel and our own Paladin are in this case. In my opinion the brim up does not work for RLK's hat, nor would it in Jimmy's.
Also, it is my feeling that the brim up style complements better a cattleman's crease, as would a centerdent, because this is a more simetrical crease and harmonizes better with the all around up brim. An effect similar to that seen in a homburg.
All of the above is my opinion, and personal tastes obviously play a part.
Was just stating that you were being very nice in your comments and I didn't acknowledge that in the manner of a gentleman.HarpPlayerGene said:[huh] ???
Goose. said:Yep, what that N-B13 gent said.
For others I guess it is a matter of choice. I like stingy brims. I like the turned up stingy brims.
As much as I'd like to, I can't pull off a stingy brim. Turned up, on me, is even worse. I still wear a stingy now and then, so it's a choice for me too, but I just can't do the upturned
Same hat, Akubra Hampton...

I can only say, these guys are really out in the sun all day, aint trying to look cool, just looking for shade.
I threw that up because so many people post photos of theirselves in hats and they always look so serious. Come on folks, smile a little. lol

Hi Marcus...I don't have a Stylemaster. But the few Akubra hats I have received in the mail were all shipped brim up. Guessing this is how they are stored. But my first Sydney off the shelf, was brim down in front. My second Sydney, mailed from David Morgan, came in the box, brim up.Marcus said:I just got my Akubra stylemaster a couple days ago and it came with brim up. ...
Chinaski...you win by default. I can't play at all. Serious. Was going to take lessons, signed up and all that jazz. A week before lessons, I ended up with five broken bones in three fingers. Have never followed up. Just like having the ukes around to bug the neighbors But, I can do the "Flea" riff!Chinaski said:Goose, I know that tune well myself! My Dad taught me to tune a uke that way. I'm not sure if I can play it better than you but I'm up for a Uke-Off!

Don't think I've ever seen a bad pic of you. :eusa_clap
You sincerely look like a good guy that is happy and like to have fun. Always a pleasure to see your pics. I'd let you buy me a drink anytime
