Oh my goshhhh this is exactly what I was looking for thank you ILY

nice look is good on you not my style i have the snowy river ordered but cool video thanks

Mate, I understand they’re special in a certain way, but no more special than anyone else.

So the constant wars with other tribes or nations the aboriginals had before white people how is that moiti.

Interesting brother.one question you did not answer?in the ol days when a man stole his wife from another tribe how did this moiti work with the possibility of being the same moiti?and what were the reasons for blood avengemet by the other tribe?

They are a bunch of drunks.

Everybody "related to country"? Everyone BLACK. Spiritual connection to the land my ASS. The Great Aboriginal Taxpayer Funding Gravy Train goes on and on. Can these useless people do ANYTHING WITHOUT GOVERNMENT FUNDING?

Thanks bro 😊

Kinship as a white Australian in an Aboriginal community? doesn't exist now a days ever since Australia said no to the voice referendum

Awesome 👍🏻 and very interesting

Amazing, thank you!

Thanks for sharing this!

I have been wearing hand made felt hats since 1960. Most of mine were made at the Hatatorium in San Angelo Texas.

To bad we can’t get them shipped to Texas

Top tutorial video. Too right, there aren’t very many instructional videos on how to bash an Akubra. Yours was the best one I’ve watched by far. Thanks for emphasising to not apply direct steam to the inside hat band. I would’ve loved watching the whole video, without the cut you edited into the middle of the clip. Your old hat still had plenty of life left in it, but I appreciate that you made your tutorial before your old hat was completely cactus, so we viewers could see the desired shape you were going for when you were shaping your new hat to resemble your old one. How did you get into the Sombrero style?

Found your channel while searching Akubra hats.. great videos man! Love watching your adventures!

Never been to Australia ,we have relatives near the Murray River so no excuse! Thanks for your wonderful videos!!

I honestly can’t believe your vids aren’t more popular on KZbin. Your content and production quality are great. Keep up the good work!

Thank you for this great video... I love the character you put into your hat. I have an Akubra that I bought about 35 years ago and never knew how to shape the top and so I never have worn it more than a couple of times... Mine is the same color as yours and it is an Akubra Squatter Imperial. I really want to wear mine now, so I am going to experiment with how to shape mine... Thanks again.

This Sombrero looks a bit off color than the fawn color. Lucky

Thanks David,glad to find a newer video.keep them coming

Amazing David, more videos please 😊

Always a joy to see another video from you! Keep it up mate 👍

Great stuff👍

This helped me a lot. i got my Sombrero today after waiting for months for a restock. They don't make many of these anymore, and I was lucky enough to jump onto the Hats by the Hundred website on a day they had my size in stock. I did exactly what you showed here, and it came out great. My only gripe is that cow band! It's the worst band Akubra makes, and then they glue it on with Gorilla Glue or something and it's really hard to get off. I tore my first Sombrero trying to get it off with a knife, but not this time. (I still wear the torn one, but it always bothered me.) Anyway, thanks for making this!! G'day!

Congratulations, Your the very first Video i've watched that actually has genuine bush music to it , Well done.

DAVID I JUST FOUND THIS VIDEO GLAD YOUR STILL OUT THERE I REALLY ENJOYED YOUR EARLIER VIDEOS THANKS FOR YOUR KNOWLEDGE

Cool. What do you do w the old hats?

So good.

Mate, great video. Went to Cobourg last year with venture north and heading off again shortly. Love this area and your video gave a bit more knowledge of the first australians in the area. Thanks!

And I thought I wore a tall crown with my old gus crease Bailey! Looking forward to buying a sombrero and teying this crown style out here in the American Southwest!

Ripper stuff. Learnt a heap, cheers 🤙

I found this video extremely useful, I love the bash design you employ here. I have bashed my golden spur to try and replicate it, but with a more standard western brim. I call it the Bush Bash, so you can add Style icon to your CV 🤣. Big love from the UK.

That’s a great hat the old one is super cool

You just got your old one looking perfect! 😂

I prefer the old hat. It has genuine character to it ❤️

Found this vid. Thanks for keeping it simple bashed my first Akubra. Your vid and energy definitely made it a fun project.

Sir you’ve filled the hole in my heart left by the death of the great Steve Irwin. He was a big part of my growing up caring about animals and being curious about nature. I walloped that subscribe button halfway through

why do you have to lace your face that only your mother would love, be always in front, I would much prefer seeing what you are talking about shit video that only your mum would love as she will be seeing plenty of you

Great video, thanks for sharing mate

what a wonderful video . rare animals , educated information about the flora and the fauna

Looks like a great trip mate. Love the vid, love you're style. Keep it up

Young mr zz top! 😎

Always a joy when one of your videos pops up. Thank you.

Great video mate.

Awesome

Great video mate, just what I've been looking for.

Loved that review mate. I’ve actually Rebashed my Sombrero to have a flat brim somewhat similar to the Territory because the territory has a crown that is to shallow for my head haha. Turned out a treat

Thank you for the best video to explain how to reshape the hat and also the fitting of the hat band too. Thank you very much 👍👍😊😊

Great tutorial bloke. I’ve been apprehensive about bashing my Rough Rider because I always thought it had to be done by a hatter but I’m confident to do it myself now. Cheers bud
