Nice hat, pity about the wearer... No only kidding!

Actually, I was looking more at the background there as you look like you are on some sort of trek! 😆

I am indeed, a trek in the deepest darkest garden centre cafe!

I've had mine years. Every day wear, bike included. Don't wear it to bed though. Superb things.

Sombrero? Pith Helmet?

I have a 'Sombrero, or at least that's the official name for it
Mine's not the shape as sold/manufactured though

Mine's this shape (or 'bashed' as the Aussies would call it)

(i've also got an Akubra 'Snowy River')

They're both quite different prices to when I bought mine!

Great hat. Haven’t seen the bush tucker man for a long time.
He’s still alive, aged 79.

There was a great programme a few years ago, when Ray Mears went to Australia to meet him, & travel round with him
