The outback can be wet, which is why Australia perfected garments made from waxed cotton. You will stay dry in this hat and it also provides excellent sun protection. Features a leather chin cord and brass mesh eyelets.
It's best to spot clean all cloth hats with a damp cloth using cold water, or hand-wash in a sink if necessary. We recommend using plant-based soaps because regular detergents can be toxic for our waterways.
Always let your hat dry naturally. If your hat gets out of shape, you can use steam from a tea kettle to reshape it. Hold the hat in the steam and allow it to soften. You can then reshape your hat to its original shape and then let it cool down before wearing.
Another option to take out wrinkles on the brim is to place a clean rag or old T-shirt over the wrinkled area then iron the area.
I love the hat. As I’m on the top end of the size range I do need to stretch it before it fits right. But that’s not a problem. Wore it in the rain yesterday and performed great!
Glad you put it to the test and it held up well. Thanks for the 5 star review and enjoy!

Husband's Birthday Hat
I bought this hat for my husband's birthday. He had been waiting for this hat to become available for quite some time in his size (M). When it became available he was notified as requested. He is very pleased with the look and finish of the hat. He wore it in a downpour to walk the dog and it performed as advertised. I feel he is satisfied with it.

Old fashion Quality
If your looking for quality the old fashion way. Conner hats instill that attribute. I own several, primarily for use in the backcountry. In the big town, the quality and look goes unmatched. All have outstanding characteristics based on my high requirements. They have proved themselves to worthy of my kit, time and time again.
