For more information on Akubra’s iconic collection of Adventure hats, see common questions below or contact us today.
Is the Akubra Traveller more pliable?
Yes. The Akubra Traveller is designed to bounce back from the wear and tear of any journey. Featuring a pliable felt structure, this hat adapts to the movements of the adventurous spirit.
Are Akubra hats waterproof or suitable for rain?
Akubra felt hats are made of 100% rabbit fur felt. They are water-resistant and durable, designed to last you a lifetime with the right care. Although, you should avoid getting them drenched.
The Akubra Traveller is handcrafted from rabbit fur felt and treated with waterproofing solution during the manufacturing process, so they’re water-resistant and can handle a bit of weather.
If your hat gets wet, let it dry at its own pace. Avoid heaters and direct sunlight which may cause the hat to shrink or lose shape.

Does Akubra have travel hats for women and men?
Akubra hats are unisex and can mold uniquely to suit anyone and any style. Finding your Akubra will depend on sizing and style, see our size guide or visit us in-store to find your perfect hat for travel.
Do hat stretchers work on Akubra’s soft felt foldable hats?
Yes, hat stretchers are effective and recommended for use on soft felt models like the Akubra Traveller, especially if the internal buckram sweatband has shrunk due to heat or moisture.
Hat stretchers are also the best way to maintain your hat's size when storing it for long periods. Because the Traveller is a crushable felt hat designed for flexibility, we advise making gradual adjustments rather than aggressive stretching. For best results, use a light application of steam around the sweatband area before stretching.
If you need to alter the size of your travel hat, we have all the kit that you need.
