Description

Darwin Kangaroo Leather Hat

The Kokoda Track does not care how prepared you think you are. Heat presses down early. Mud pulls at every step. The air is thick enough to taste, and the jungle closes ranks the moment you pass through. Movement is slow, deliberate, earned.

This is the kind of country where gear stops being a choice and starts being a companion. The Darwin sits low through the climbs and holds steady when the trail pitches sharply upward through the Papua New Guinea Highlands. Packed down, pulled back out, reshaped by hand without ceremony. It stays with you through hours of walking and long pauses where breath matters more than speed.

By late afternoon, the light breaks through the canopy and the pace finally eases. Boots come off. Kettle is on for a much needed cuppa tea. Nothing fancy. Just relief. The hat stays on while the day drains out of your legs and tomorrow waits its turn.

Style #: 7H43

Material & Care

Kangaroo leather 

Boasting seven times the tensile strength of bovine leather at the equivalent thickness, kangaroo leather is a remarkably strong yet thin, durable and lightweight leather sourced from kangaroo hides

Care

Do not wash or dry clean – brush off dirt with a soft brush or wipe clean with a damp cloth. Periodically apply leather conditioners to maintain flexibility and prevent drying out.

Avoid leaving leather goods in a hot car where the high temperatures may affect the quality and finish of the leather.

A good rule of thumb is - if it's too hot to touch, then it's too hot for your hat!

Awesome

I ordered on a Friday and got it in one week on the following Monday. It traveled halfway across the world, just awesome.

The hat is exactly what I wanted, and exactly what I ordered.

It is an heirloom quality hat, the lightness of it, the quality of workmanship.

The baseball cap was a nice bonus.

Thank you so much, may order a brown one next time.

Have no doubts, these are awesome.

I wear it whenever I can, and I will order again.

Extremely comfortable hat that sits perfectly. Lightweight kangaroo leather that gives a relaxed fit and a cool head in the hot WA sun.
