One ugly hat! (Akubra Sombrero)

[elvisroe]

Elsewhere 'akubra' asked to see some Akubra Sombreros so here you go.

Here's what they look like after mucho adventures! I've had this one for about 16 years but it was already well worn by the time it came to me.

Ugly as hell but has plenty of character! (modeled by Ed the head from my hatstand)

The crown is folded down to almost half its height...as you can see from the comparison.

It's a ****** tall hat and you certainly get stacks of shade out of that brim. I did wear it for a while melon picking during holidays but I found the floppy brim was hard to keep up!

Here it is modelled by an actor mate in a short we did a couple of years ago.
