Legend has it that even if he was wearing a Queen's Guard Bearskin hat he would still smile, and look like an Aussie. I have a Cattleman as well and they are very comfy. Don't worry mate you are about as Aussie as anyone else. Good on-ya.
Love your informative and entertaining channel. As a custom cowboy hat maker myself in Eagle Idaho USA I thought I'd let you know you can shorten if not eliminate that uncomfortable break in by steaming your hat. And wearing it till it's good and dry. Just put a kettle on, get good steam rolling out the top, place the hat where the brim meets the crown until it becomes good a warm and pop it on your head. Steam on the the other parts of the hat periodically can help clean your felt hats, allow you to reshape your hat to its original shape or even change styles and reset reset the fibers so it maintains its shape more like when it was new. One last felt hat trick, you can smooth the hat fibers if it gets a bit shabby or clean a light surface stain or dirty patch with a cardboard nail file, we call em emery boards. Take the fine not course side of the emery and gently comb the fur, a felt hat is animal fur, in a counter clockwise direction for the top of the brim and the sides of the crown, clockwise for the underside of the brim and front to back for the very top or the crown. I also noticed your cattleman may be a bit large as you had something tucked under the sweatband. Most hats will shrink slightly with a good steaming and allowing them to dry off your head and shrink maybe a little more if you give it a good soaking with warm water in the shower then invert the sweatband so it's folded out the bottom of the hat and allowed to let dry on your dashboard of car on a warm but not too uncomfortably hot day. Wow that got long hope one or more of these suggestions helps.
@Salt Shack ... looking for advice on a felt hat. My Australian Army slouch hat, had been in the cupboard for 30 years, I decided to 'rebash' it, it now looks like an Akubra 'Cattleman'. My question, it is now too small for me, I am 30kg bigger, than when I was in the Army, my head doesn't appear to be fatter, like my body is, can I stretch the hat?🤠
@@Rohan-go4oo yes you can easily stretch your felt hat but it’s very difficult to make smaller. The difficulty comes with the sweatband and ribbon or hat band around the outside of your hat. If you need to increase the size a lot you’ll need to replace those components after resizing. Start simple and cheap. Heat up a teapot so it produces good steam out the spout. Take your hat with the sweat band and ribbon or any other band that would be damaged by removing it and put it in the steam focusing on where the crown meets the brim. Be careful not to get burned. While the entire circumstance of the hat is still good and warmed from the steam put it on your head. If it sits down without excessive force or too much discomfort you’ll need to go to plan B. If you can get it on leave it on until it is completely cool and dry say 1/2 an hour or longer if you can. You may need to repeat this process. Plan B require removing and replacing both the sweat band and any non adjustable hat band. A cheap and available on Amazon hat stretcher can aid in both stretching the hat off the steam and keeping it from shrinking back too it’s original size when not worn. This process will also ruin the “break” in the brim, no longer having a nice 90 degree angle between the crown and the brim. If you have a stretcher with it installed you can put more steam on the hat then lay it on a clean flat surface and work the “break back in, an ordinary cloths iron with steam can be helpful too. This will of course ruin the shape of the brim, but after it’s is allowed too cool and dry more steam steam at the area you want to reshape say a quarter at a time, front is a quarter, back a quarter each side a quarter. Start at the sides finish with the front and back. Now all this reshaping is like art or sculpting. You might not get it right even after several tries but steam will undue any mistake and it can be fun but if your not inclined to endure the hassle I’m sure Akubra has a service to resize and recondition your hat for you.
@@SaltShack Wow ... you are a good world citizen. I was not expecting an answer, or even a very thorough answer. Is it 1am, in your part of the world? It is 6pm Friday evening in Australia, I have read your response, I get the basic jist, however I have had a couple of beers here, watching the sun go down. I will read again, Saturday morning. Thank you for replying, and spreading your knowledge!👍
i think akubra advise you not to steam the inside of the hat, especially around the sweatband, because some of them are made of leather and they will shrink if you apply steam to them
I've got the Akubra Cobber Pedy and my son is getting the Cattleman for his 18th. Akubra is a great Aussie company and I'm proud to wear them. They last forever with a little care as well.
I live in Southwest Florida and for years have worn a hat design called "Aussie Breezer", along with sunglasses, because of the brutal sun. The baseball caps many Americans wear just don't cut it, it takes an all around brim here though the Breezer's mesh portion, designed to allow more "breeze" to reach the head, can be a problem for someone with thinning hair - top of the head sunburn is a hazard though it's only happened to me once.
Pauly, I do the same, only i soak a folded up hanky and put in on my head. Protects from the sun and a soaking wet hanky is only wet for a bit, then it's moist and damp. Cools amd protect my head. Requires a periodical re-wetting, perferably at a pub . . .
What is funny about hats? I'm from Germany and got me an Akubra "the Territory". It is great against low autumn sun, rain, in the woods, at forest-works and you're still comfortable while sweating, as it has/ceeps a klimate under it. I like it 🤠 Hats up mate, Björn
@@saltydog888 Thanks mate. When I got it new, some colleagues gave me some strange looks. Next day it was pooring rain and the looks changed to envious😉
I wear a territory in Ireland, great on that Thursday in August when the sun shines and outstanding in the rain every other day. Wore it to menorca last week, really stood out among the bare headed lobsters 😂
I current wear a Scala Outback that is a very similar style to the cattlemen as my everyday day hat, except I had to reshape the brim so It doesn't look so much like a cowboy hat. I only chose it because it's got the classic fedora style shape to the crown and the wider brim for better sun protection. I also have an Akubra Slouch hat that I use for my Shadow and Solomon Kane costumes.
I live in the Mojave desert where the sun is just as hot. I wear the Cattleman like yours, and an Australian Army Slouch during certain periods. But now that I am 70 years old, I find it is harder to process heat, so I wear a mesh hat (you call it a breezer) with a bandana around the brim to provide some sun protection as well as letting more breeze into it.
This answered my question! Im an Aussie landscaper, and been wearing a cheap wide brimmed hat with a mesh band above the band, for ventilation. Ive wanted a better hat but thought the Acubras would be too hot. Thanks!
That’s a great looking hat, I own the Coober Pedy and love it, I reside in Southern California so it’s perfect for this area, thanks for showing them off to us...
Yeah I was going to get a cattleman, great hat and all but I liked the akubra tablelands better so I chose that and I think the tablelands is a bit bigger brim
I bought an akubra plainsman because I love the porkpie crown and was interested in getting a hat for working that isn’t extremely large and confronting like a stetson or even an akubra territory. But I love wearing an akubra so much that I actually bought a pastoralist to wear everyday. So I have a work akubra for work and one for daily wear. Can’t imagine not wearing one anymore...
As an American I prefer Aussie hats, but I get alot of funny looks and I'm okay with that. We get alot of sun here in Oklahoma and it's extremely hot so I tell them what they are good for. I have a broken hill and a grizzly outback hat and they are amazing .
I've got 2 akubra's and had them for many years and love them. I wear either quite often during summer when out in the sun even down here in Melbourne.
I live in the US in the State of North Carolina and a hat is mandatory in the summer to avoid skin damage. I wear one, along with a 50+ UPF shirt, every time I mow the yard. Thinking about getting an Akubra Territory to look a little more stylish while cutting the grass. ;-)
I just bought an Aussie Chiller to wear here in Barcelona Spain, since summers are getting hotter and hotter (40 degrees celsius) and I easily get sunburn. No one wears hats here, but that’s ok, one has to be careful. And they look really nice.
I'm looking for a wide brimmed hot for sun protection in Aussie summer. Did you remove the lining from the Cattleman as I have read they get very hot. I'm tossing up btw Akruba and a cheap cane Bunnings hat which will breathe a heap better...does not look nearly as nice though. Keen to hear how hot these get - thanks.
I picked up a new Akubra Riverina the other day which is great but not as practical as yours un australian of them not stocking your custom one as a standard line lol well its funny now that you have gone walkabout from your channel ya still costing me money . Love ya work and say thanks to your mum and dad for the rabbits ..cheers
Dude, Ive been wearing an Akubra Cattleman since 1997. Bought it in the blue mountains. Love that hat. its been all over the world with me and still going. Just noticed over the weekend that it is starting to get a small hole in the point of the crown.
Brett, And you know what causes that...pinching the brim between your fingers whilst putting it on or off. Placing it on your head holding the sides of the brim, then pulling down either the front or back of the brim will set it just right and prevent the well-worn ventilation/bullet hole at the crown point . . .
In videos with Meischa, you see them store their hats behind them. They ran two cords from one side of the truck to the other that are attached to the upper grab handles. They made a hammock like system and the hats rest upside down suspended from the ceiling between the two doors in the back seat area...
I'm an A/C Tech in Houston Texas. I do mostly commercial units on roof tops. I wear a big floppy bonny hat looks silly to some people but I swear it drops the temp 5 degrees just putting it on.
I've owned a Banjo Paderson for over 5 years - I wear it daily, yet it still wears great, looks good and protects me from the sun I live in Utah USA- have had lots of compliments about the hat The hat ain't "funny" if it's practical to have one!!
All I needed to see was a few pictures on Twitter of some guy getting his ear skin cancer removed for what he said was the third time to never leave the house without a wide brimmed hat on.
I've had a Cattlemen for 10 years now. It's my favourite style they make but, like in this video, I wish they made it with the option for a wider brim.
@@etcghostgaming3639 Thanks mate, I appreciate the reply. After much deliberation I went with the Riverina, only because they had it in stock and not the Territory. Turns out that after buying it, I much prefer the style of the Riverina. Thanks again.
i used to wear straw hats, but they only seem to last 12months so i finally got my Akubra, the name wore of ages ago but it had the biggest brim they had. i reckon the first one suited you better, but if you like it its your head mate you do what you please
As texan I get it even though the sun not intense in north texas as it is in sydeny. I tend to cover up when I work out side longer than one hour. Here in texas the most popular wide brim hat to wear is the cowboy hat. how ever you make sun safety mistakes like wearing short selves shirt and shorts.
I'm not really a hat person , i look silly in any hat . Like the last hat , similar to the bush tucker man's hat . It's nice around Shelly on the Canning , ah :-)
Thanks for posting up. Your new hat is good as bud. Some of the comments 🙄. My first Akubra was a Territory - seen better days now. Current hat is a Riverina 👌🤠
As a Texan that wears cowboy hats, I think y’all’s look very nice.
We've bought enough guns bro. Buy a hat
@@bonnypop5764 This Texan is awaiting his first Akubra Cattleman now (first hat beyond a baseball cap in fact). Our sun is not unlike what this fellow has to endure on the daily. I'm sold
The Slouch Hat, by Akubra, first issued to Aussie soldiers in WW1 has been in military service now for over 100 years.
Now that calls for a beer!!
Pay for what you get with akubra. Top quality, hand made.
Legend has it that even if he was wearing a Queen's Guard Bearskin hat he would still smile, and look like an Aussie.
I have a Cattleman as well and they are very comfy. Don't worry mate you are about as Aussie as anyone else.

There's nothing wrong with embracing our heritage and culture. More Aussies should wear an Akubra.

I've got a Cattleman. They're good. A bit weird at the start but sweat in it a bit and it fits perfect.
The Cattlemen definitely suits you better!
Agree. The lower crown and rounder shape fit your face. The new one is nice though. I have a Riverina. The wide brim is good for Arizona sun.
It could be because we are use to seeing him in it, but I agree 100%, and he has SO many memories in his Cattleman!! :(
@@sparky5543 Likely so. I'm sure the new hat will grow on us viewers. After all its a custom, hey?

Love the first hat. Great hat company. Last time in Oz I picked up a 'Jackaru'. Love it. In the winter here I call it my 'handsfree umbrella'
It always makes me happy when you upload a new video. This was a good'un. I had a good chuckle, and scared the chipmunks.
KOKO!

Love my Akubra Territory hat, it's my daily in the sun and a good work hat.
I love both hats!
Here in the States I wear a Banjo in the winter/fall, a Range in summer city and a Palm Double H in summer outdoors.
My current outdoor hat is the Bunnings straw hat. Wide brim. Less than $10.
As a friend of mine once said, "But you can't wear a bunnings hat to the pub" 😂 The bunnings hat is an aussie classic though 👍
I’d sooner wear a Bunnings than a baseball cap!
I wear the bunnings hats at work but they're lucky to last a couple of months
I found when you get the bunnings straw hat damp with sweat, it makes your skin/scalp itch like crazy.
Also the air gaps near the top allow enough Sun in to burn your scalp for those of us who don't have a luscious head of hair
That’s a great looking hat, I own the Coober Pedy and love it, I reside in Southern California so it’s perfect for this area, thanks for showing them off to us...
Yeah I was going to get a cattleman, great hat and all but I liked the akubra tablelands better so I chose that and I think the tablelands is a bit bigger brim

Akubra - made in Kempsey in northern NSW.
Those hats work well here in the PNW, we get loads of liquid sunshine. I've been looking for a good one to keep in my truck.
I've got 2 akubra's and had them for many years and love them. I wear either quite often during summer when out in the sun even down here in Melbourne.
I'm an American and I think your hats are awesome!
good onya mate. ive always worn the rough rider. bloody good hats
There made up near me at Kempsey N.S.W great hat company
I wear a leather Barmah Saddler. Keeps the sun off my noggan and my gal loves it.
The real question is why do people wear baseball caps backwards and sun glasses on top of the sun visor? Lmao
I also have a Cattleman as an everyday hat and a Golden Spur as a ‘going out’ proper flash hat. 😎
I have a Territory. It's big. Great for creating shad for me and anyone standing next to me haha.
I’m glad you decided to take the lid off about which hat you had. 😊
I think those are awesome hats. And I am from Oregon, United States. Not many people wear cool hats like that. A lot of baseball caps everywhere.

Hopefully Akubra will get a rush of orders for hats! Well done, both hats look great.
I have a cattleman which I gave to the missus. I now wear a black Lee kernaghan. Just need to wear it in. Both Akubra's of course.
Hey man I'm from kempsey on the mid north coast of Australia.
This is where akubra started and are still being made here
I just bought an Aussie Chiller to wear here in Barcelona Spain, since summers are getting hotter and hotter (40 degrees celsius) and I easily get sunburn. No one wears hats here, but that’s ok, one has to be careful. And they look really nice.

I wear a similar hat for one reason. Skin Cancer. I’ve had numerous cancers and pre cancer removed. The Akubra is an awesome hat.
What model is the new hat ??

Some interesting hats over the years, Harry Butler's, Les Hiddins', Malcolm Douglas'... Seems like Aussie legends have to have iconic hats :)
Love my Akubra - The Territory. Has quite a wide brim for better protection
Speaking of hats, could you go over your hat mount in your vehicle. saw it briefly in another video and was interested
I have an Akubra Fed 4 and it’s the toughest hat I own. A tank. I love Akubras
When I'd go fishing, I would fry out in the sun. I bought an Akubra Territory, and now I don't burn! Great hat! I now have seven Akubra hats!
Hi Michael, how do you store your hat when driving? When 4 wheeling I worry about crushing mine
In videos with Meischa, you see them store their hats behind them. They ran two cords from one side of the truck to the other that are attached to the upper grab handles. They made a hammock like system and the hats rest upside down suspended from the ceiling between the two doors in the back seat area...
Mine barely leaves my head until I shower and sleep
Did you cut the corks off of it?
Hello. Bit late to the party. What’s the new hat at the end of the video? Thanks
I have a Golden Spur, it has a nice wide brim on it. Great for camping! Have also used it as a water bowl for my dogs 🤣
Love mine! Nice custom jobby you have there!
I'm an A/C Tech in Houston Texas. I do mostly commercial units on roof tops. I wear a big floppy bonny hat looks silly to some people but I swear it drops the temp 5 degrees just putting it on.
When you put your hat on it reminds me of Independence Day when the alien ships arrived and cast a giant shadow over the landscape.
I've owned a Banjo Paderson for over 5 years - I wear it daily, yet it still wears great, looks good and protects me from the sun I live in Utah USA- have had lots of compliments about the hat The hat ain't "funny" if it's practical to have one!!
Akubra are bloody great. I have a Cattleman like yours and a black Banjo Patterson.
I love my Akubra Territory hat, great hat.
My Brother has several Akubra hats and now I may order one,we both live in the States,Like what you like and be yourself is what I say.👍
Just got the Akubra Coober Pedy.

What's the name of your new hat Michael? It look's the goods mate!
Like the new hat. What design is it???? nah just joking hahahaha
What colour is that hat
What style Akubra is your second hat mate
If that’s a funny hat, then I must be a damn comedian.
I wear lifeguard hats in Las Vegas, NV. I like how the breath with a breeze
Awesome hat , my Akubra hat is 30 years old and thou worn still my hat of choice.
I know their hats about 200 but how much is the custom made ones mate?
Finaly I know! Thanks so much. I already found few stores in California that sell them, will definitely check them out.
Tread lightly. Some Akubras you can’t wear unless your Aussie😂
@@Twowheeleddevil haha, when I tried it on, it was guite a large hat.

I’ve been handed a cattleman by my step nanna a few years ago and it’s still going strong
What color is it mate
Is your new one the Colly?

Keep the random videos coming, they're all entertaining 👍
I like the old one.
How much is the cattleman?
