Nullarbor Breeze Hat
by Newcastle Hats

Same toughness. More airflow. The Newcastle Hats Nullarbor Breeze Hat takes the proven Nullarbor design and fixes the one thing heat kills first — airflow. By adding a breathable mesh gusset, it lets hot air escape and cooler air move through, without sacrificing the wide-brim protection you actually need. So instead of choosing between coverage and comfort… you get both.

Built from heavy-duty double-sided cotton drill over a foam laminate, it still delivers the durability the Nullarbor range is known for — just without the heat buildup. The 9cm brim provides solid face, neck and ear protection, while UPF50+ rated fabric on the crown and brim handles the harsh Australian sun. This is the version you grab when the temperature climbs and the standard hat starts feeling like a sauna.

Best for:

• Hot worksites and summer conditions
• Farming, construction and outdoor labour
