View full detailsFew men’s hat styles are as instantly recognizable—or as practical—as the safari hat and the outback hat. Built for the elements and loved for their timeless silhouette, these iconic hats are crafted in a wide range of premium materials, including wool felt, leather, waxed cotton, canvas, oilskin, straw, and more. With medium to wide brims, safari and outback hats provide reliable coverage from sun and rain, making them go-to choices for travel, outdoor work, hiking, fishing, and everyday rugged style.
These hats have serious heritage: made by legendary hat makers, featured in films, and worn by famous adventurers (on-screen and off). Shop rugged favorites like Stetson men’s outback hats, Scala safari and outback styles, the adventure-inspired safari looks associated with Indiana Jones, Dorfman Pacific, and wide-brim outdoor staples from makers like Henschel.
While the two styles share a similar purpose, their shapes set them apart:
Safari hats typically feature a dented, pinched crown with a slightly downward-sloping brim—a classic explorer profile that looks sharp and functional.
Outback hats generally have a more oval-shaped crown with a flatter top, plus a subtle front-to-back brim curve for a rugged, wind-friendly look inspired by Australian outdoor wear.
Many crowns may also include mesh ventilation to increase airflow and comfort in warm and humid climates. Whether you’re chasing adventure or simply want a durable everyday hat with legendary style, safari and outback hats bring authentic character—and dependable protection—wherever you go.
A safari hat for men is a wide-brim hat with a pinched crown designed for sun protection and outdoor travel. Safari hats are commonly worn during hiking, travel, and outdoor work because they shield the face, ears, and neck from sun exposure.
An Outback-style hat is a rugged, wide-brim hat with flat crown inspired by Australian outdoor wear. Outback hats are typically made from felt, leather, or durable fabric and are designed for long-term outdoor use in sun, wind, and changing weather.
The main difference is the shape of the crown, structure of the brim, and material. Safari hats have pinched crown, downward sloping brim, crafted from lightweight and breathable materials, straw, or felt. Outback hats have flat crowns, front to back curved brims, and crafted from durable felt, leather, or canvas offering better protection in varied weather conditions.
Many Outback-style hats are water-resistant or waterproof. Felt, waxed cotton, and leather Outback hats are designed to handle light rain and wind, making them suitable for outdoor work and travel.
Yes, safari hats are ideal for hot weather. Lightweight materials, ventilation, and wide brims make safari hats comfortable for men traveling, hiking, or spending extended time outdoors in warm climates.
