Your Tamworth Checklist: The Essentials

Tamworth in January is legendary—it’s hot, it’s dusty, and it’s the ultimate fashion runway for the outback. Here’s what you need to stand out in the crowd:

1. Statement Boots that Can Handle the Heat

A festival means a lot of walking and a lot of dancing. You need boots that offer "all-day comfort" without sacrificing style.

• For the Ladies: Nothing says festival style like a pair of handcrafted Corral boots. With their intricate embroidery and stunning colours, they are the ultimate conversation starter.
  
  

• For the Gents: Look at our Ariat or Georgia ranges for that perfect balance of rugged durability and classic Western silhouette.

2. The Iconic Festival Hat

You can't do Tamworth without a quality lid to keep the summer sun at bay.

• The Choice: Our Outback King and Statesman collections are flying off the shelves for a reason. Whether you want a breathable straw for the midday heat or a premium fur felt for the evening shows, we’ve got the perfect fit.

3. Fresh Western Apparel

New year, new look! Refresh your wardrobe with our latest Burke & Wills shirts or Western-inspired accessories. Remember, Tamworth style is all about the details—from the buckle to the brim.
