100 Years of Service:
Since the early 20th Century, the Akubra Military Slouch Hat has been a distinctive part of the Australian Defence Force uniform. During both World Wars, this hat was supplied to the Australian Military. Over 80% of Akubra's entire production was devoted to the Army Slouch in WWII. Still today the Slouch Hat is proudly worn by our military, serving their country.

About Akubra:

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.
