We are excited to share Australian adventure guide Graham ”Hammy”’s story where he describes how he believes nature has the power to spark our curiosity, exploration, play and healing.

Merino wool, known as some of the highest quality of wool in the world, its fine fibers, softness, retention, resilience making it ideal for hats for all seasons. We design every Kooringal hat proudly honouring and celebrating Australia wool’s natural ability to help each day of exploring be even more enjoyable.
Australian sheep knows best
Here are a few of the many benefits of merino wool
Retention
Longevity and retention of wool is superior because its dense natural structure holds form and resists wear and tear naturally. Wool naturally is renewable and a sustainable source .
Regulates
Wool keeps you cool or warm regulating to the climate conditions you are in.
Resistant
It’s resistant to moisture and ensures you stay dry and wicks away moisture which keeps your head dry.
Recyclable
After years of use wool naturally decomposes back into the soil and earth.
Australia’s conditions are some of the toughest in the world when it comes to sun, heat, wind and water.
Our designs come from over 25 years of learning what is essentially needed in a hat to best enjoy every day in the elements.
