Waxed canvas was the material the Australian outback was conquered in. Before synthetic waterproofs, before gore-tex, before anything that required a label to explain its technology, waxed canvas simply kept the water out and let the air through. The Aussie Waxed Brown Cowboy Hat is built from that material in the spirit of that function.
Thick waxed canvas construction provides UPF 40+ sun protection and full waterproofing throughout. The 10cm crown sits at the correct outback height. A braided leather band wraps the base of the crown with a period-appropriate detail. The chin strap keeps the hat secure through wind and active outdoor movement. Sized 55 to 61cm.
Available in brown alongside black and olive. The brown waxed canvas develops a slightly lighter patina along crease lines with use, which gives the hat a working character that only improves with time outdoors.
