Re: AB Deluxe at Glastonbury
Montana - you will likely have seen me at the cider bus as that's something of a haunt of mine during the festival. I usually take my Fed IV (as seen in my avatar picture where I'm sat in front of the Pyramid). No shame in an akubra! I saw the Raiders screening was on, bit missed it sadly. Re. The s...

AB Deluxe at Glastonbury
Anyone who has heard of the Glastonbury Festival must have heard of the famous Glastonbury rain and mud.... right? Well, I took my AB Deluxe this year.... it put up with a bit of a battering from the elements, including 6 hours standing in a queue in the driving rain, and as well as keeping my head ...

Re: Adventurebilt Status Update Anyone?
Evening all. My ABD ordered on 7th July 2008 arrived today. That's nearly two-and-a-half years, but it is a beautiful hat. Soft as butter. Question: mine has a small wrinkle on the front brim just up by the ribbon. It's something I think I can live with in a handmade hat, but is this likely somethin...

Re: Adventurebilt Status Update Anyone?
WOW! :o Long wait. Yeah, but patience is a virtue, right? I always knew I'd have to wait (what with the film coming out and so on). I thought 18 months when I placed the order, but by the time that came and went, what were another few months more for a handmade hat from a real craftsman? My Fed IV'...

Re: Adventurebilt Status Update Anyone?
Adventurebilt Deluxe update here. Myself and my brother ordered a couple of hats of Marc in the spring or early summer of 2008. I just had an email off Marc that mine is ready, and my brother's is next in the queue. Another ABD update here. I ordered on 7th July 2008 and have just heard from Stefan...

I put the order in for my AB Deluxe with Marc on 7th July 2008, and I'm looking at around 14 months wait. In the meantime, I get to have a long think about whether I go for SOC of KCS. Time is on my side, however. Question: my Fed IV has a tendency to sit on the top of my head when bashed with a cen...

my advice, for what it's worth, is to say on the order form how you measured your head and any thoughts or worries you have on fitting. That's what I did, and Ron at Hats Direct came straight back to me asking me to use a dress maker's tape measure and to send him a tight measurement and a comfortab...

Thanks to COW....
Hello. Just a quick post to proffer up my humble thanks for all the help and guidance that I have found in these forums. I've been a hat wearer for a number of years now, quickly graduating from baseball caps to a floppy leather Barmah hat that I wore around Australia and on to a couple of Panamas -...
