Description

Kalgoorlie Wide Brim Soaka Hat

Heat comes early on Koh Phangan. The coastal trail from Haad Khom to Bottle Beach cuts along the headland, narrow in places, scrub pressing close, the sea dropping away below. You move steadily, rock and dirt underfoot, sun already hard on your shoulders.

The Kalgoorlie sits low and steady through the walk in. Wide brim doing the work. Air moving where it needs to. By the time the track opens and the beach appears, the worst of the heat has been managed without thought.

Later, the board goes in and the pace slows. Paddle boarding just off the shoreline, salt drying on your arms, the hat still on, chin strap loose, crown breathing.

As afternoon softens, a fresh shaken Pina Colada finds its way into your hand in the shade. Ice cracks. The day stretches without urgency. Built for hot miles, coastal movement, and the quiet reward that comes after effort.

All hats in our Soaka micro-suede range come with a built-in chinstrap. They are ultra-lightweight - they weigh less than 150gm / 5oz.

Style #: 7H31A

Material & Care

Poly-Suede 

Soaka hats are made from specially made poly-suede which is a durable synthetic fiber known for its resilience and ease of care. It has been constructed to be highly durable, quick-drying, and resistant to shrinking and stretching, making it ideal for hats

Care

Machine washable in cold/warm water with a mild detergent for washing; do not tumble dry.

Hang dry or lay flat in the shade. If necessary, use a hairdryer to remove creases caused by squashing or incorrect storage.

Avoid leaving your hat in a hot car.

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