: Does anyone prefer one to the other? I would prefer the durability of the akubra, but don't want to miss out on any authenticity! Anyone own both? or prefer one to the other? Any and all info would be appreciated! Thanks -Steve

I own both, a Bushman and the Miller Indy. If I had to choose one, it would be the Miller because to me it looks closer to some of the hats in the films. Of course I can only speak of the Bushman, some of the other Akubras may be as close as the Miller. I do like the felt used in the Akubras mainly because it doesn't shrink as readily as the Miller. To date the Miller is as close as it gets without spending hundreds of dollars on a HJ or custom made hat. Regards, Steve
