I Have No Patience!

It's been a week since I've sold my hat, and maybe 7 more weeks till I get my Keppler. I need a hat and I cannot wait for the New Fed to come out. I know everyone would say that I should wait but thats another 4-6 weeks away. I can only get 2 hats and since I have the keppler on the way I can only get one more and I'd like one that I can get soon.
I'm looking for a LC look. Hatsdirect doesn't have any Feds in my size and the Fed Dlx only comes in 59, 1 size highter than mine.
I guess my only options are:
Miller 257
David Morgan Adventurer
Unless anyone has another alternative I, these would be my options.
Thanks Guys

Check the bazzar. Someone may be selling something right up your alley.

wow- toss up. Adventurer is an Akubra, so you know it's durable. The Miller has a better color though. -But the Keppler has that nice color, too. Adventurer is a little cheaper.
hmmm...tough choice there, especially since you're only looking for a quick replacement.

Get the David Morgan, that's what I say. Higher quality hat, plus it will be easier to sell later should you decide you don't want it. Or, as Ape suggested, check the bazzar!

I'm going to have to second the Akubra Adventurer. My "everyday" hat is an Adventurer, and it is tough as nails. Its been rained on (not a slight drizzle, but its been with me in a heavy rain for an extended period on more than one occasion), and it has held up very, very well.
The color may not be that close, but it is easy to style and care for. I really like mine a lot. Its a good hat that you can wear everyday and not have to worry too much about how you treat it. Just brush it out or sit it on a stand to dry naturally and it seems to come out fine.
