Akubra Hats

Saturday, October 13th, 2007

What makes Aaron Hats different from other hat stores? Glad you asked. There are many things but one in particular is our selection of Akubra Hats…specifically the fedoras we stock. You’re probably thinking to yourself that other hat stores carry Akubra Hats and you’d be correct. But no other store in the USA stocks the Akubra CEO (in three colors) and the Akubra Leisure Time. The CEO is a great fedora that can be “dressed up” or “dressed down” depending on what you’re wearing. The Leisure Time is a bit more casual because it has a leather and feather hat band instead of grosgrain but is a great brown color called Regency Fawn.

For those who aren’t familiar with the Akubra name here’s a little background info:

Akubra Hats is an Australian Icon. For more than 100 years Akubra has been making its famous fur felt hats. The Akubra name is synonomous with the landscape of outback Australia, and our unique hats form an important part of the Australian national uniform.

In the modern era Akubra Hats still form an important part of the national culture, being worn by the hard working men and women on the land as well as being presented as national gifts to those visiting dignatories who want to take a piece of Australia home.

Berets aren’t just for the French anymore. This winter a beret is a great headwear choice for both men and women and Aaron Hats can help you find the right one. Whether you’re looking for an authentic French Basque beret, a Kangol Monty beret, a Betmar Angora beret or any of the other berets from our great collection you’ll find the right beret for you.

Hot New Newsboy

Thursday, October 4th, 2007

I have a small collection of Ivy caps and have always liked Newsboy caps. The only problem is that I can’t seem to get used to the extra material a Newsboy has as compared to an Ivy cap. So every time we get some new Newsboy caps in stock the first thing I do is try one on hoping that this is the one that will get me into a Newsboy. That day has finally arrived. A couple days ago we got the Kangol Denim Newsboy and this is the one. The Kangol Denim Galaxy is made of a nice dark denim that drapes just right and has a flannel lining. The flannel lining may not suit everybody but up here in the White Mountains it will be perfect once the cold weather sets in.
