Fran's Backpack brings to you various products on travel, adventure, flying and photography.
They could be books, ebooks, videos, or gear. Check each one out as it's highlighted on the day.
Today's item in the Backpack is an Akubra Packable Hat for $119.00.
I now have my second Akubra hat in thirty years and thoroughly recommend the product. I would still have my original Akubra if I hadn't had an accident while trekking in Patagonia last year.
My original Akubra had a forehead strap but the second one has a leather strap to secure under the chin in windy conditions. The packable hat is a great idea and can be alternated with a baseball cap to suit the day.

"Akubra hats are an Australian icon that have shaded the heads of ranchers and working Aussies since 1874. Now being managed by the fourth generation, Akubra hats are the Australian cultural equivalent of America's Stetson. This Traveller model felt Akubra hat is designed to be packed and unpacked. The unique brim design has a memory insert that brings it right back to shape. Made from Pliofelt, Akubra's new pliable pure fur felt, the crown is 4 3⁄8" high and the brim is 3" for great sun protection. Ornamental band has a brass buckle and the inside hatband is fabric, allowing it to be folded and packed. Packable felt Akubra hat in fawn. 100% Pliofelt. Imported from Australia. Sizes: 6¾, 6 7/8, 7, 7 1/8, 7¼, 7 3/8, 7½, 7 5/8." Amazon.com.
