Several of us do, yes.

Here's a review thread that might interest you...

And I usually one of the first to chime in. :wink:

The 1936 Fieldmaster

The 1945 Metropolitan

And hopefully soon, if I can get my stimulus check, Lord willing, I will be getting a 1957 Legend.

Cheers!

I love the look of these. How large is the brim on this and where can I get one? :lol:

Yep, like ehtyva said. The brims are 3" but can be trimmed to your specifications if requested. Give Ken (our Jersey Jones) a jingle and talk with him about it. You find him a pleasure to talk to.

Cheers!

Camptown "Metropolitan"

Post by YARVTON »

How does the Camptown "Metropolitan" Gray compare -- colorwise only -- to the Akubra Federation IV "Moonstone"? Moonstone looks very light to me, but have not seen a side-by -side comparison.

I've only seen the photos of the moonstone myself, but from the photos they tend to match the color of the AB clipper gray rather than the slate gray of the Camptown, which I DO own.

I've got my Fieldmaster on order. Ken was great to deal with. He talked me through picking out what I want, ultimately deciding on a LC bash.
