Best hat Akubra have made in a while
"I've always had an Akubra (or two or three). The iconic Federation IV, Rough Rider, Sombrero. . . all are in my stable. I haven't bothered with buying anything Akubra on recent years, as most of the new styles seem to be aimed at city folk rather than at those who traditionally wear Akubra. I haven't been captured by any of them (especially noting the prices these days). However. . . The Old West entered the arena. Everything changed. The Old West is easily one of the best styled hats Akubra have come out with in a long time. Together with the Federation IV, it's probably one of the best hats made in my view. Although I'm not bothering with most new Akubra styles, The Old West takes Akubra back to its roots for me. I'll likely pick up another one to keep pristine (yes, it's that good)."
