Barmah Squashy Oiled Leather Hat

The Oiled Leather hats Barmah's thickest leather hats and the oiled treatment gives them a rugged look, perfect for the British weather.

This model is made from dark brown oiled cow hide and is water resistant and foldable and each hat is supplied with a free calico travel bag.

The hats come up on the small side and we encourage people to wear a hat as loose as they can possibly get away with without the hat falling off your head. To get a good fit, measure the circumference of your head, one inch above your eyebrows, in a comfortable fit (i.e. not too loose and not too tight - as you would like the hat to feel on your head) and then select a size. If you fall in between sizes we recommend to go for the size up, so for example a 58cm head measurement, we would suggest a Large 59cm hat.

The original hat-in-a-bag

Made in Australia using cow hide. Marks and scratches on our leather hats are considered a natural feature as they are made with naturally scarred leather from free-roaming cattle or wild kangaroos.

Barmah leather hats combine the following unique features to make a great outdoor hat: Fully packable - Super-light and strong - Water resistant leather (DriHide® process).

To get the most out of your Barmah hat, we recommend using our specially formulated "Barmah Hat Waterproofing Spray". As the name suggests, the spray helps to repel water away from the leather, therefore helping to keep you dry. The spray also works as a leather conditioner so will help keep the leather soft and supple. Never use a heat source to dry your leather products as this can lead to cracking and drying. Instead, allow time for natural air drying.
