: So Which way to go?
: I have a large Hat size (US Size 7-5/8 or 24-1/8 inches or 61.2775 cm.) So the comments by Patterson re large hat sizes might be relevant
: The HJ Hat is starting to sound over-priced and not all that attractive for my larger hat size.
: Any Akubra Federation Hat owners out there?
: Any Peter Brothers Hat owners out there?
: Anybody have both hats?
Honestly, if the Federation came in the same color as the PB, I would opt for the Federation. This will surprise some, but I think the Akubra is more than capable of achieving the Raiders look at a very affordable price, and the quality is top notch. Regards, Fedora
