Where can I buy the Akubra Federation?

Post by mooniteman »

I have looked all over the place and all I can find is the Akubra Dover - which is not what I want - is there a link to an already bashed hat with the dark brown band - I thought I saw one a little while ago but now I cant seem to find it.

Basically I'm looking for a Raiders hat for under $100

Any other suggestions are appreciated

Thanks

The only place you can get a Fed is from Hats Direct.

Great people to deal with too! When I got mine there was a huge "Merry Christmas from Australia" written on the box! :)

not to mention incredibly fast shipping. i think whenever i have ordered from them I have gotten the hat in roughly a week, not bad from the land down under.
