The Classic Vented Aussie Bush Hat. The Parks Koolaroo is the classic vented Aussie Bush hat. There is nothing complicated about this hat. Crafted from a heavy-duty, water repellant canvas, your Parks Explorer is light-wearing, weighing in at less than 5 ounces.
The 360-degree “Checkerboard” Mesh Gusset allows for maximum airflow, to help you beat the heat. Jacaru includes a half-moon of canvas behind the front of the Gusset for brow protection. Your Parks Koolaroo can be soaked, it can be crushed, and it will bounce back. And the chinstrap and toggle help keep your hat securely in place as the wind blows.
How Do I Select a Hat That Fits? There are 3 keys to selecting the right hat for you:
- The hat must first fit your eye. If you don’t like the look of the hat, if it does not match your sense of style, you are unlikely to wear it once you get it home. Only you can determine if a hat fits your eye.
- The hat must fit your head. Your hat should hug your head, but not squeeze your head. Comfortably snug when sitting properly on your head is the correct fit. Only you can determine if a hat fits your head.
- Finding the right fit. To get the right fit, start by measuring your head to determine your hat size. We can help you with that. See our Jacaru Hat Sizing Chart to help you find your size.
- Start with only the finest materials.
- Coupled with a catalog of classic & creative designs.
- To which they apply their knowledge and skills, honed over decades of experience.
- To create exceptional, well-fitting, comfortable, and durable headwear.
- Responsibly sourced & crafted in Australia by this family-owned Australian business.

Will My Hat Stretch or Shrink? Do not count on your new hat to stretch. Over time, a quality hat crafted from natural materials is more likely to shrink than stretch. How much depends in part on how it is maintained. See the Hat Sizing and Product Care information in the What to Know section of this site for more information. And you are always welcome to call the Cape Woolamai Team for personalized assistance.
