The Legacy Behind the Australian Bush Hat
The wide-brimmed felt hat began as essential gear for life on the open range—offering protection, utility, and durability long before it became a symbol of rugged Western style. At Outback Traders, we carry on this heritage through our Statesman and Outback King Hats collections—crafted from quality felt and leather to withstand Australia’s toughest conditions. Each hat reflects generations of practicality, designed for sun protection, weather resistance, and a lifetime of wear.
