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.

Best Store, best hat !

Ordering a hat halfway around the world (I live in Austria) is not a risk if you order from the Hat Store. The order processing was fast, as was the delivery. The hat arrived well packaged and undamaged. When I contacted them by email, I had to deal with very friendly Australians. And last but not least: the hat is GREAT! Thank you very much, I will be ordering again soon! Andreas from Austria

Perfection

The hat arrived to me in Florida, USA in perfect condition. Sizing is perfect. Exactly what I was looking for. This Coober Pedy has quickly become my favorite hat. The website navigation was easy and accurate. Shipping time was surprisingly fast, especially considering how far it had to come. Really a fantastic experience all the way around.

Sand Coober Pedy

It's a long haul from down under to here, but worth the wait! My fourth Akubra and love it like all the rest... seems light but really holds its own so far! Love the look; I find myself checking in the mirror.
