Australian cowboy poet Banjo Paterson wrote hundreds of odes to cattle droversliving free and working hard in the outback. His characters and verses, including "Waltzing Matilda," have become icons of the Australian spirit. Like the iconic cowboys who rode across the parched land, this distressed cowhide hat is an outback original. Rugged, waterproof, and fully foldable.

Comments about Australian Leather Bush Hat:
I saw this hat advertised several months ago and fell in love with it. I kept waiting for it to go on sale, as it was expensive. The best deal I could get was a store-wide 20% off and I grabbed it. It's immediately become one of my top three or four favorites. (I own 22 hats and wear one all the time) It's comfortable, very well-made, good in the rain, and gets lots of compliments.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Australian Leather Bush Hat:
This is my second version - since I recently lost the first one. They are outstanding hats, totally comfortable, crushable, and waterproof. The first one fit me perfectly but this one, which is supposedly the same size (large), is a little small for me. Otherwise, I would certainly have awarded 5 stars
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Australian Leather Bush Hat:
Years ago I had a wonderful hat for which I have searched to replace ever since. You have found it for me. I am in my 70s and tend to be a bit exotic, so it is the perfect style. Also I wear a larger size and this Medium was just right. Thank you, National Geographic.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
