Good grief! How did I miss the spider?
Akubra Cattleman for me:

But I'm after another....

But I'm after another....
I have several I'm fond of: an Akubra Snowy River, a Real Deal Brazil tarp hat, and old boonie hat I was issued in Desert shield/Storm, and a pith safari helmet. I'll try to get photos of then all up later but for now here's a couple of shots of the tarp hat
I have a rogue suede hat that I got in south africa... can't see it on their website though. Also have a tilley t3 but always wanted a genuine od us boonie from the 60's. rare as rocking horse poo though.
I have for a long time resisted buying a Tilley hat because everyone I had ever seen seemed to be pretty shapeless (with a round top and a round rim that you seemed unable to shape). Anyhow, I have recently come across the TH5; a nice hemp number that is also nicely shaped and has some decent airholes. About to test it out this weekend.

If you guys can dig wet tee shirts, I don't see why I can't please myself with your crown and brim getting a good soakingHere it is taking a shower after a wax job,.......... this may be hat porn but if anyone is tempted to watch it I suggest they should seriously consider getting a life ..
Flat cap all the way mo' fo's.
Brims are for ladies at esscot daahling.
Ahhh - an Englishman amongst the Aussie / Yankee wanabees. My sartorial compliments sir. Only one "IQ reducer" baseball cap so far (and on a pretty girl so that's okay!) thankfully
Sadly your barrels appear to be on sideways!
I have the good fortune to be a Welshman, and therefore am spared from looking like an extra in the "Last of the summer wine".

I used to wear an Akubra but it's worn out now. I was at least the 4th owner for it.
Now it's either a baseball cap or od boonie hat.
As for being a wannabe Aussie, I am half Australian. 2 passports kind of rocks

You get a pass
There is of course a practical value to a wide brimmed hat - in both rain and sun, but 9 days out of 10, I am with Bushwacker, a flat cap works...lets face it, they are pretty common amongst people who work outdoors in all weathers So...they make a great Bushcraft hat too!

Well if we're gonna include "wannabes" then here's the hat I want (the black Injun Joe hat) http://youtu.be/v325wdgoFH4 But at over $600 each, it ain't happening.
Posted pics(well one of the kids did) of my akubra in april last year, sadly still can't figure out how to do it. I also wear a rogue airhead in this hot weather.

In frustration at not being able to buy a Tilley/Realdeal hybrid, I made one.

Yeah its shame how they have become popular.... more now for the looks then the reasons for having one..... thought about changing but everything I try, just seems to not come up to the one I've used for 20 odd years... used to have a flat cap but did not get on with it.. found it good for wearing when my kids were on my shoulders...
, other wise just wore the Barbour wax
