Canning Breeze Hat
by Newcastle Hats

Same toughness. More airflow. The Newcastle Hats Canning Breeze Hat takes the proven Canning design and fixes its only weakness — heat.

By adding a breathable mesh gusset to the crown, this version lets hot air escape and fresh air flow through, making it far more comfortable in high-temperature conditions. You still get the durability of water-resistant canvas, the structure of a 9cm brim, and full UPF50+ protection where it matters most — across the brim and crown.

It’s the same work-ready hat… just smarter in the heat.

Best for:

• Hot construction and civil sites
• Farming and agriculture in summer conditions
• Landscaping and council work
• Hiking, fishing and outdoor recreation
• Anyone who runs hot but still needs sun protection

If the standard Canning feels too warm, this is the upgrade.

Pairs well with:

• Cooling workwear → reduce heat stress on site
• Safety eyewear → glare and dust protection
• UPF50+ apparel accessories → reinforce UV defence
• UVeto Kool Tie → critical for hot environments

Features:

• Breathable open mesh gusset for improved airflow and cooling
• Premium water-resistant canvas for durability and all-weather use
• 9cm brim with brimlock edging for consistent shape and coverage
• UPF50+ rated canvas on brim and crown for certified sun protection
• Built-in absorbent brow lining to manage sweat
• Lightweight, ventilated design for long wear in heat
• Australian Made, handcrafted in Western Australia & accredited by Ethical Clothing Australia
• Available in multiple colours and sizes for broad fit options
