In addition to 2 Fed Deluxe IV's, I also own a Bushman that I bought through David Morgan's site almost 10 years ago...I was married in that hat, and have traveled with it a good bit. They make top-notch hats. I have absolutely NO reservations with them.

I have two Fed III's brown dlx (5years old) and a gray reg (3years), on top of that I have a Hampton (2 years) and just recently a Fed Dlx IV. I think they are fantastic hats! I recommend them without hesitation.

Squatter and AkAd; both from David Morgan, both neat hats. The Squatter takes a little warming up to, though I hear that if you chop it down it makes a really good Indy hat. I like the Adventurer a bit more than some around here, but then I like hats...

I've had a couple of Cattlemen hats and now an Adventurer.

I bought my boys FedIV's and will invest in a Deluxe for myself one of these days. I live in my AkAd and it is as comfy as a second skin.

Like you Aeris and kiltie, I'm a bit of a fan of the AkAd

A recent pic.

The only one I have right now is a Riverina, to which I added a pugaree in place of the braided leather band. I also recreased it some:
