Description
|
|
|
|
As ubiquitous in the outback as the Stetson is in the American west, the hats made by Akubra are an Australian institution. Aussies have lived, loved, and died under their Akubras, and wearing one has been a longstanding tradition throughout the continent. The Akubra provides shade from the harsh Australian sun, works as a fan on a hot day, keeps snakes at bay, serves as a water jug for a horse, and swats away flies. It can even be worn as a hat. This witty and lighthearted history is illustrated with color portraits of Akubra wearers throughout.
