The mesh panel version of the leather outback hat solves a problem the standard leather model cannot: how to keep the head cool on genuinely hot days while maintaining all the UV protection and rain resistance that leather construction provides. The answer is ventilated mesh panels set into the crown that create airflow without compromising the waterproof exterior.

Crafted from 100% genuine leather with mesh inserts that allow air movement through the crown in direct sun and heat. The 7.5cm curved brim is shapeable to the wearer's preferred angle. The 10cm high crown gives the hat its height and proper outback silhouette. Waterproof construction throughout means sudden weather changes do not require removing the hat.

Available in brown across multiple sizes. The leather develops character with outdoor wear, and the ventilated design makes this the most practically comfortable version of the Australian outback hat in the range for warm-weather use.
