Murray Breeze Hat
by Newcastle Hats

Built like a leather hat… but actually wearable in summer. The Newcastle Hats Murray Breeze takes the rugged, all-weather build of the Murray and adds the one thing leather usually lacks — airflow.

Made from premium Italian leather with integrated mesh gussets, it lets heat escape while still giving you the structure, durability, and protection you expect from a proper wide-brim hat. The curved brim delivers that classic Australian profile, while the rolled edge keeps it tough, flexible, and packable. And over time, the leather softens and moulds to your head — turning it from “new gear” into your hat.

Best for:

• Hot outdoor work and job sites
• Farming, construction and field work
• Long days in direct sun
• Travel and all-weather use
• Anyone wanting leather durability without overheating

If full leather runs too hot, this is the upgrade that fixes it.

Pairs well with:

• Chin straps & toggles → secure fit in wind
• Safety sunglasses → reduce glare in open environments
• Workwear & outdoor gear → complete sun protection setup
• UVeto Kool Tie → essential for hot conditions

Features:

• Premium Italian leather construction for durability and long-term wear
• Breathable mesh gussets for airflow in hot conditions
• Curved wide brim for classic Australian styling and coverage
• UPF50+ rated for excellent sun protection
• Complies with AS 4399:2020 sun protection standards
• Soft waxed leather moulds to your head over time for a custom fit
• Rolled edge brim for durability while remaining flexible and packable
• Internal elastic trim for secure, comfortable fit
• Handmade in Western Australia using premium materials
