About the brand

Akubra is an Australian hat manufacturer. The company is associated with bush hats made of rabbit fur felt with wide brims that are worn in rural Australia.

In 1874 Benjamin Dunkerley arrived in Tasmania from England and decided to start a hat making business in Hobart. His skills as a hatter were backed by his ability to invent machinery, and soon after his arrival he had developed a mechanical method of removing the hair tip from rabbit fur so the under-fur could be used in felt hat making. Previously this task had to be done by hand.

By 2015 Akubra has produced two million hats for the military.

Akubra Hats are still proudly Australian made in Kempsey.

I saw this style hat in our local outdoors store and wanted to purchase one to take away on our overseas holiday. Unfortunately the display hat was the only one in stock and not my size last. Our friendly retailer made some calls for me including to the Akubra factory, but it was going to be several weeks before more became available. i then got in touch with you guys and ordered one and then went on our holiday. Some weeks later the hat arrived. Beautiful styling, very light and, for the traveller, it is crushable and returns to its original shape easily. I am totally sold on my Traveller and look forward to many holidays and long service from my hat. This is my forever hat now. Great job to the team at Aus Gear. Wonderful Service . Thank you John Feeney

I bought this to replace my much loved and venerable Akubra cattleman's hat - purchased in Sydney many years ago. I managed to lose it somewhere. I chose a different style just in case my old hat turned up. The hat - of course - is peerless quality, with a different brim style from what I'm used to. The price is great - much cheaper than I could get locally in the UK. The service from Australian Gear was fantastic. The order was processed promptly and a tracking number provided. I checked and saw the hat was in Brisbane. A few days later I got a card to say that I had a package at the post office. To my amazement it was my hat. It had raced across the world! Can't recommend this store too highly.
