Working out your size - getting it right the first time.

• Do not use size charts or advice from other sites.
• Do not simply convert US or UK size standards on our charts to a metric size. We provide the charts as guide, not as a rule.
• Measure your head, different manufacturers have differing interpretations of size as happens across other clothing lines.
• Measuring your head takes a few minutes and takes the guesswork out of the equation. Please use a dress makers tape measure and not a piece of string...
• Size charts and advice are designed for Felt Hats (Akubra and Fedora) and Leather Hats (Barmah)
• Always presume that a hat will shrink in size, they do not stretch over time.
• Adjustment foam strips and detailed care instructions are sent with each hat. Enough strips are sent to reduce a hat by one size.
• We happily exchange to anywhere in the world, but getting it right the first time is easier for all of us.
• Ask us for advice, the advice we provide is based on many years experience in mail order and selling hats. We are happy to answer as many questions as you need to ask.

Fedora, Akubra and Felt Hats

The size chart below is a guide to equivalent sizes in other measures. If you are unsure of your head size, please remeasure your head in inches or cms.

• We recommend re-measuring your head size in inches or cms and converting from the new measurement.
• Place a tape measure above the ears, and take it around the widest part of your head. The tape should be firm but not too tight. If in between sizes, round up to the closest size, ie 56.2 should be 57, 57.7 should be a 58 etc.
• We supply FREE foam adjustment tape or pads to adjust the hat to a perfect fit.
• We supply enough tape to convert a hat a full size down, ie a size 58 becomes a size 57.

Barmah Canvas & Leather Hats

In the event of a hat not fitting we accept returns. If you still need assistance or want to double check the result please contact us at  [email protected] and we will be happy to advise further.

Akubra - Traveller - Black

The ideal traveller's hat, featuring a soft, conforming structure and a unique 'memory' for those on the move.

A softer pliable felt hat designed specifically for the adventurer among us. This hat has a unique memory which allows it to be manipulated back to shape if mistreated.

Features a plaited bonded leather band and soft inner sweatband. This hat also features a buckram inner band.

Brim:  76mm, Felt Edge

*Note: Colour of hat may vary slightly from the picture.

HOW TO MEASURE YOUR HAT SIZE

Get a soft tape measure or a long strip of strong paper and place it around your head in the position you wear your hat. The tape should be level, in the centre of your forehead and just above the top of your ears. If the measurement is in between sizes select the next size up; eg. 59.5cm = 60cm.

Hint: Akubra Hats – due to our climate, many Australian’s buy one size bigger and pack (foam sizing insert - supplied by us) behind the sweatband to tighten the hat until it adjusts to the wearer’s head. A hat that is too tight will never feel comfortable.

Akubra Traveller - Black

The Akubra Traveller is an incredibly comfortable hat, It is made of a softer more pliable felt and features a soft buckram sweatband. This hat has a unique memory which allows it to be manipulated back to shape if accidentally crushed. A unisex style that looks good on anyone.

• 76mm welted edge brim
• Bonded leather braided band
• Padded buckram sweatband
• 100% Rabbit fur felt
• Lab certified UPF50+ rating
• Made in Australia

Please see our  HAT CARE  page for tips on looking after your new Akubra.

Note:  Colours may vary slightly from photographs. 

Measuring Your Head Size

To determine your hat size, follow these 3 simple steps:

• Measure the circumference around your head - approximately 12mm (1/2") above the ears
• Keep the dressmaker tape level and firm, across the temple and above the eyebrow ridges.
• Check the size chart given below to determine your size.

 **Scroll across to see larger sizes

AKUBRA Heads come in all sizes, and in a surprising variety of shapes. Although Akubra hats are adaptable and will usually conform to differences in shape with a little wearing, it is essential that the size be correct for your head.

For an enduring fit with your new Akubra the following points should be considered:

• The Sheepskin inner band of the hat may shrink slightly with use. Do not expect a tight-fitting hat to 'loosen up'
• In time, the hat will conform to your head shape. Initially, a slightly loose-fitting hat can be adjusted using folded tissue placed behind the inner band, then removed as the hat conforms to your head shape.

NOTE: For in-between measurements use the next size up.

We make all reasonable efforts to achieve and where possible exceed the following delivery expectations:

Akubra Traveller - Black

The Traveller is relatively new to the Akubra family, but boy has it made itself at home. Not only tough but an incredibly comfortable hat due to the use of a softer, pliable felt and cotton sweatband, it has been designed specifically for the adventurer among us. This hat has a unique memory that allows it to be manipulated back to shape if accidentally crushed.

• 76mm welted brim
• Bonded leather braided band
• Padded cotton/buckram sweatband
• Made in Kempsey, Australia

Fabric:  100% Rabbit fur felt, unlined

Please note: The Traveller has not been specifically designed as a rollable or foldable hat, and should not be purposefully crushed if it is to retain its original shape. 

Colours may vary slightly from photographs. 

Most if not all fur felt hats are shower-proof, and can confidently be worn in light to moderate rain without fear of the material or shape being damaged.  

Constant wear in HEAVY rain will cause any hat to distort and potentially shrink over time. Let your hat dry naturally, away from any heat source, while resting on its crown.    

Brush counter-clockwise with a soft-bristle brush to remove dust and light marks.  

Most hats can also be treated with water-proofing spray for extra protection, but always remember to spray a test area first, to make sure the product won’t mark the felt.  

Never leave your felt hat in extreme heat conditions, such as the dashboard of a car, or near a heater/radiator. This will mainly cause leather sweatbands to shrink or warp.

Some wool felt hats are produced to be ‘water resistant’ or ‘crush-proof’, and will indeed be so for a certain amount of time. At Brisbane Hatters we prefer to err on the side of caution and recommend that wool felts not be worn in the rain, or used as packable hats unless absolutely required. 

Over time wool can shrink, fade, and lose it’s shape if treated roughly, and can be much trickier to repair than fur felt if this happens.

General care tips for wool hats are the same as for fur felts, but for cleaning it would also be good to keep a sticky lint-roller handy. Wool can generate more static than other materials, and that lint roller will be better for removing stubborn specs and animal hair.

PANAMA STRAW

Handwoven Panama hats can be just as much art as they are fashion, and some extra care should be taken when handling and wearing them.  

Take you Panama hat on and off by it’s brim, and not by its pinch (the posted part of the crown). Regular handling of the pinch can cause the straw to crease and eventually split, even if the fabric is reinforced. The more that you can avoid this, the better your Panama will look and behave (and protect you!).    

We recommend never wearing your Panama in the rain. The straw can absorb a small about of moisture, and this won’t damage the material itself, but prolonged dampness can make it fall out of shape. Your hat can most likely be re-blocked if this happens, but prevention is always better than a cure. Brisbane Hatters does not recommend trying to waterproof your Panama hat.

Keep Panamas and natural straw hats out of extreme heat conditions. This can dry out the straw and cause it to become brittle. If you live in a particularly hot or dry area, it’s best to spritz your Panama hat every so often with a mister (spray bottle) to stop the straw from drying out too much.

A note on rollable Panama hats: There certainly are still Panama weavers in Ecuador that make incredibly high grade, rollable hats. These exquisite pieces must be woven and shaped in a very particular way in order to make them *reliably* packable, and can sell for many thousands of dollars.   Less expensive versions of rollable Panamas do certainly exist, but should always be folded as infrequently as possible to retain the integrity of the straw. Just because you ‘can’, doesn’t always mean you ’should’ when it comes to foldable hats, especially if the price seemed too good to be true.

PAPER/HEMP/RAFFIA

Do not get paper hats wet. They are made of paper. They will lose their shape. Paper weave or paper braid hats can be excellent to wear in the sun, as their lightweight and inexpensive, which is especially handy if you’re on holiday, but they are not all-weather hats. 

Hemp and raffia hats have a similar set of instructions. These will certainly be tougher than paper straw, but can soften considerable with exposure to moisture/rain. Stiffened hemp hats, such as those from Akubra, can be worn in showers and re-stiffened over time if need be, but for any softer styles, this should be avoided.

Cloth caps and hats generally need little care, and can be warn in almost any conditions. Exceptions to this rule would be caps containing cashmere, which should be kept out of heavy rain. If you do get caught out, let the cap dry slowly, then brush it down along the nap of the cashmere to smooth out the fibres.  

A gentle spot-clean or hand wash will get out most stubborn stains using an appropriate fabric cleaner. We advise not to machine wash, soak, or dry clean your cloth hats, just to be safe.

Wipe over with a damp cloth if soiled, or dust can simply be brushed off with a soft bristle brush. To keep your hat soft and flexible for as long as possible, avoid leaving it in extreme heat (ie, on a car dashboard). If your leather hat or cap is going to see constant rain or snow, we recommend regularly treating it with a fabric water-proofer.

All leather, especially the Crackle finish roo leather hats, will show natural scarring and variations. These are not seen as flaws, but rather add to the life and story behind the hat.  

Always store your hat either upside down on its crown, or on a suitable hook or hat stand. This will help maintain brim-shape, and reduce the amount of dust or muck that settles on in.  

If your hats are going into storage for the off-season, we recommend using a sturdy box packed with acid-free tissue to support its brim and crown. Also throw in some silica packs (the little de-humidifiers that come in shoe boxes and new bags) and some moth-balls or lavender soap. This will reduce the chance of any nasty surprises the next time you wear it.

If something goes wrong with any of the above, please feel free to contact us at Brisbane Hatters and we can provide any repairs or maintenance that your new favourite (or old favourite!) hat requires.

We make all reasonable efforts to achieve and where possible exceed the following delivery expectations:

Estimated delivery times are to be used as a guide only and commence from the date of dispatch. Usually allow 3-5 Business Days for shipping within Australia. For NT, WA and rural areas, please allow 7-10 Business Days.

Things to do in Moscow in 2 days

If you want to visit Moscow in 2 days, there are 2 purposes: do not miss the essential places of Moscow and optimize travel.

• First day: Red Square , Saint Basil’s Cathedral , Zariadye Park, Bolshoi Theatre , Kremlin
• Day 2: Cathedral of Christ the Savior, the former Krasny Oktyabr factory on Balchug Island, Gorky Park, Moscow State University (one of the Seven Sisters buildings ) and Sparrow Hill

As 2 days os really short, be sure to choose an accommodation in the best districts where to stay in Moscow .

Walking on Red Square in Moscow: one of the unmissable things to do in Moscow

Iconic place and one of the must-see places in Moscow and even in Russia! Besides, if there was only one place to visit in Moscow in 2 days, this place would then be Red Square, without hesitation. Therefore, starting the city tour with Red Square is ideal . Several buildings are on the square, but not all of them have to be visited. Check out my blog post about Moscow’s Red Square in detail to learn more and not miss anything.

Visiting Saint-Basil’s Cathedral inside

Even more emblematic than Moscow’s Red Square! Built in the middle of the 16th century under the orders of Tsar Ivan Le Terrible, this cathedral is one of the most beautiful monuments of Orthodox art, and definitely one of the unmissable places in Moscow. Visiting Saint-Basil’s Cathedral inside is one of the most beautiful things to do in Moscow!

Take a walk in Zariadye park: one of the coolest things to do in Moscow after visiting Red Square

Zaryadie Park is just a 10-minute walk from St. Basil’s Cathedral, so it’s easy to include in your itinerary if you’re going to visit Moscow in 2 days.

And clearly one of the coolest things to do in Moscow!

In addition, several pedestrian or one-way streets are located north of the theater. It is therefore very pleasant to find them to leave the main axes of the megalopolis.

Visit the Moscow Kremlin

Visit Kremlin is on top of things to do in Moscow. A place of power for centuries, the Kremlin then shows us a whole different image when viewed from the inside. If you want to visit Moscow in 2 days, the Kremlin is certainly one of the must-see places in Moscow.

• Opening hours : Daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., except Thursday.
• See our blog post about visiting the Moscow Kremlin

Visit the Cathedral of Christ the Savior

This impressive Moscow Cathedral is the seat of the Russian Orthodox Church. It is a must see if you visit Moscow in 2 days and clearly one of the things to do in Moscow. The Cathedral of Christ the Savior was first built in 1883 in memory of Russia’s victory over Napoleon’s Grand Army. Then in 1931 Stalin ordered its destruction. It was then rebuilt again (identically) only in 2000.

• Where? Ulitsa Volkhonka 15. At the foot of the Kropotkinskaya metro station.
• Opening hours . Daily: 10: 00-17: 00, except Monday: 13: 00-17: 00
• Free entry (some closing restrictions, for example a short)

Good to know! In orthodox religious places, one must avoid excessively uncovered clothing. Women should cover their heads. After visiting the Cathedral of Christ the Savior, you can explore Bolotny Island and Gorky Park. This is one of the routes our guide to Moscow.

The old Krasny Oktyabr factory: one of the coolest things to do in Moscow

If you cross the Moskva River by a pedestrian bridge which is located just in front of the Cathedral of Christ the Savior, you will enjoy a beautiful view of the city and at the same time you can discover Balchug Island. Furthermore, if you want to visit Moscow in 2 days, you can include this island in your itinerary between the cathedral and Gorky park. Here is the old confectionery factory Krasny Oktyabr, which has gradually turned into a fashionable micro-district. There are then some elements of street art, cafes and restaurants and some Moscow bohemian side. At the end of the island you can see a gigantic 98-meter-high monument dedicated to the Russian reforming tsar Pierre The Great.

Good to know! You can find on this island are the trendiest nightclubs in Moscow. On weekends, there are taxi caps after midnight so there are so many people. On the other hand, if you go there in winter and during the day, the island is quite empty and less interesting to see.

Gorky Park is one of the TOP places to visit in Moscow, because it allows you to better understand the life of the locals and their rhythm. In fact, it’s a huge entertainment park. For example, in winter there is a giant ice rink and in summer – free dance or yoga lessons, sandy beaches for playing volleyball, an outdoor cinema. So, like the locals, have a Stakantchik (ice cream or cooked corn), and enjoy the atmosphere of the place: that’s one of the interesting things to do in Moscow to discover the city.

• Where? Krymsky Val 9. 20 minutes’ walk from Krasny Oktyabr, along the quays.

Sparrow Hill and Moscow State University

The Sparrow Hill, Vorobiovy Gori in Russian, is the highest point in Moscow. It is rather known to Russians, but less to travelers. A nice view on Moscow opens from the hill, and in particular on the Luzhniki Stadium. In addition, on the hill itself is the Moscow State University: an impressive skyscraper from the Soviet era.

• How to get there? By bus T7 (35 min) from Oktyaborskaya station, near Gorki Park. By metro (Vorobiovy Gorki station) + climb the hill on foot. On foot along the Moskva along the Gorky Park (1h30) + climb in funiculars.

Good to know! It is possible to cross the Moskva river by funicular. We actually tested it and it was pretty cool! That is one of our favorite things to do in Moscow!

What to do in Moscow in 3 days?

If you are going to visit Moscow in 3 days, it would be interesting to dive into the Soviet era which strongly marked the country and the city. After the Bolshevik Revolution, the capital was transferred from Saint Petersburg to Moscow, in order to mark the change of power. Moscow then became the world showcase for communist ideology. Here are the best things to do in Moscow for 3-day-trip!

VDNKh, visit Moscow of the Soviet era

VDNKh is a large exhibition center in the north of Moscow, where there are still several striking witnesses of the USSR. The most interesting are the Museum of Cosmonauts and the Statue of the Worker and the Kolkhozian , which will certainly impress you with its size!

GULAG History Museum

The explanations of the museum are very well done. We really have the feeling of going back in time. If you are going to visit Moscow in 3 days and you are interested in history and this subject in particular, I recommend this museum. Visit the GULAG History Museum is one of the most interesting things to do in Moscow.

Discover the Patriarche Pounds district

It’s a nice neighborhood in Moscow where you can come across rather affluent locals, but not necessarily very bling-bling. Take a walk in this area is really a cool thing to do in Moscow! In addition, the Ponds of Patriarch is one of the places of Bulgakov’s novel “Master and Margarita”. As this is an interesting area to see, we have included it in a walking tour of Moscow. The route ends at the Moscow Kremlin, which is very convenient, because you will be able to visit Moscow in 3 days by optimizing your trips.

What to visit in Moscow in 4 days: TOP things to do in Moscow in 4 days

If you want to visit Moscow in 3 days, you will already see a lot of things. On the other hand, if you stay one more day, you have plenty to do! The Novodevichy Convent, the Tchistie Proudy district and the Izmaylovo Kremlin are very good candidates for you, if you are going to visit Moscow in 4 days.

Visiting Novodevichy Convent in Moscow

The Novodevichy Convent is one of the most brilliant examples of Russian architecture, according to UNESCO. This beautiful complex was built in 1524 and today consists of the convent, but also of a cemetery whose status could be compared to that of Père-Lachaise in Paris. Visiting Novodevichy Convent is one of the great things to do in Moscow, if you want to go a little bit outside of the center!

Discovering Tchistye Proudy district

It’s one of the most popular areas of Moscow, with many cafes, restaurants and bars nearby. It is therefore a place to discover if you want to visit Moscow in 4 days. It is just as pleasant for a stroll as for the discovery of local life. For example, in winter the pond turns into an ice rink.

Visiting the Izmaylovo Kremlin, one of the coolest things to do in Moscow!

The Izmaylovo Kremlin is more of a tourist than a historic place. On the other hand, it is a pretty impressive place to discover, especially on weekends. Inside the Kremlin, there is a flea market where you can find a little bit of everything, but mostly good souvenirs to bring from Moscow. For example, chapka, traditional Russian scarves or matryoshka (Russian dolls). Add the Kremlin and the Izmaïlovo market to your itinerary if you are going to visit Moscow in 4 days, because it is a nice and very colorful place! Visiting the Izmailovo Kremlin is one of the things to do in Moscow, if you want to put colors in your Instagram account! 😉

In 4 days, we will have the opportunity to see several Moscow: Classic Moscow, Moscow of old Russia, Soviet Moscow and a little bit of the new Moscow. So what to visit in Moscow on the 5th day of travel?

What to visit in Moscow in 5 days?

Art lovers will be delighted to discover the Tretyakov Gallery and the Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts, while others will prefer to stroll along Arbat Street, see the buildings of Moskva-City or visit Bunker 42.

Admiring Russian art at Tretyakov Gallery

Founded in 1856 by an industrialist and great lover of art, the gallery has grown over the decades, and then bequeathed to the state. Today the collection includes more than 140,000 pieces, 15,000 of which are paintings. Visiting the Tretyakov Gallery is one of the things to do in Moscow if you want to discover Russian art!

• Where? Pereoulok Lavrouchinski 10. A 5-minute walk from Tretiakovskaya station
• Opening hours. Open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. until 9 p.m. Thursday and Friday. Closed on Mondays.
• Entry tickets. 500 RUB.

Visiting the Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts

The Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts presents the treasures of ancient Egypt, the paintings of Rembrandt and Cézanne, a fine collection of Impressionism.

• Where? Ulitsa Volkhonka 12
• Opening hours. Daily: 10: 00-20: 00, except Thursday: 11: 00-21: 00. Closed on Mondays. The boxes close an hour before closing.
• Entry tickets. The prices vary according to the collections from 300 to 750 RUB.

Walking on Arbat Street

All Russians know Rue Arbat. So, walking on Arbat street is one of the things to do in Moscow. However, after the years, little by little it became very touristy. This is a pedestrian street only. There are souvenir shops, restaurants and cafes there, but it is no longer the most authentic neighborhood in the city.

Seeing the buildings of Moskva-City (Moscow City)

Moskva-City is Moscow’s business center, much like Paris’s Defense district. The skyscrapers of Moskva-City are among the tallest in Europe: 373 meters high! Very nice place to see at dusk.

Good to know! You can admire a nice view of Moscow City from the docks of Tarasa Shevchenko. It’s especially beautiful in the evening with all the lights on.

Bunker 42, one of the most unusual things to do in Moscow

Bunker 42 is a secret military complex which was to be used by the Soviets in the event of a nuclear attack: a space of 7000 m² 65 meters underground!

• Where? 5 Kotelnitcheski Lane, 11.
• Prices. 2200 RUB per person
• Opening hours. Open daily from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.
• Restaurant inside. Original, but rather a tourist trap.

What to visit in Moscow in 6 days or more?

There are still so many places to see, because Moscow is a big megalopolis and there is always something exciting to do there. For example: the ancient Kolomenskoye village or the WINZAVOD contemporary art center .

If you are interested in history and want to see Russian cities on a rather “human scale”, it would certainly be interesting for you to discover the cities of the Golden Ring . For example, it is very easy to get to Sergey Posad from Moscow (less than 2 hours in train). Visiting the Golden Ring is one of the best things to do in Moscow if you are staying more than a 5-6 days.

There are still plenty of places to see in Moscow, however I did my best to list here the best things to do in Moscow, what to see in Moscow in one day, but also in 2, 3, 4 or 5 days in Moscow!

Measure your Head Size

To determine your hat size, follow these 4 simple steps:

• Using either a soft tape measure or a piece of string - Measure the circumference around your head.

• Then check our size chart below to determine your size.
• If your size falls between two sizes, choose the next size up. You can always attach foam fillers (available for sale) to ensure a snug fit.

Akubra is an Australian hat manufacturer. The company is associated with bush hats made of rabbit fur felt with wide brims that are worn in rural Australia.

In 1874 Benjamin Dunkerley arrived in Tasmania from England and decided to start a hat making business in Hobart. His skills as a hatter were backed by his ability to invent machinery, and soon after his arrival he had developed a mechanical method of removing the hair tip from rabbit fur so the under-fur could be used in felt hat making. Previously this task had to be done by hand.

By 2015 Akubra has produced two million hats for the military.

Akubra Hats are still proudly Australian made in Kempsey.
