For over a century, Akubra’s fine felt hats have adorned and protected generations of Australians. Akubra started out as a small family operation in Tasmania, and now employs over 90 trades people in Kempsey, NSW, manufacturing thousands of hats each week.

Over the years Akubra has maintained its ability to be in vogue.

Akubra produces a wide selection of fur-felt and straw hat styles to suit all people and all occasions, from Western and Country shapes through to casual and formal fashion hats.

Akubra is the only complete fur-felt manufacturer in Australia. From the raw rabbit pelt, through to the final hat, each individual hat passes through more than 100 individual processes. Absolute care and attention to detail combined with years of experience enable Akubra to provide the ultimate in quality. Every Akubra Hat is made from pure rabbit fur felt and depending on the style, the fur-felt of anywhere from 10 to 14 rabbit pelts make an individual hat. Felt is the strongest fabric known because every fibre is interlocked in every direction with a number of other fibres. That’s what makes Akubra Hats so durable.

Akubra currently manufactures more than 100 individual styles of hats in a diverse range of popular colours. This us to select and stock hats appropriate to the preferences of our customers. There is a style to suit every person and all styles can be worn by both men and women. 

• The sheepskin inner band of the hat may shrink slightly with use. Do not expect a tight fitting hat to ‘loosen up.' In time, the hat will conform to your head shape. Initially, a slightly loose fitting hat can be adjusted using folded tissue placed behind the inner band, and then removed as the hat conforms. The leather sweatband will begin to mould to your head shape. When trying a hat on, you will occasionally find one size too small and the next too big. We suggest that you purchase the larger one and insert a hat pads or tissue paper inside the leather sweatband to help the hat fit more snugly.

• Akubra hats are sized and ordered by centimeter circumference of the wearer’s head. The head is measured using a measuring tape, wrapped across the bare forehead and just above the ears. The measurement is rounded up to the next largest full cm (E.G. 57½cm head measurement is ordered as a 58cm hat).

• Do not squeeze the front of your hat when putting it on your head as this in time will cause a sharp point which will be the first place the hat will wear prematurely. Tugging the brim to ensure the fit can spoil the brim if this is done constantly. When not being worn rest the hat upside down on the crown or hang it on a hat peg.

• To properly fit a hat, clear all hair away from the forehead and place the front of the hat (ribbon bow and size to the back) on the head and then by placing the palm of your hand on the back of the crown, push the hat down.
