About the episode

Akubra celebrates 150 years of hat-making at its factory in Kempsey, New South Wales, approximately four and a half hours from Sydney. The manufacturing process involves 162 steps and 60 pairs of hands to create each handcrafted hat, with 37 different styles currently in production. The iconic Australian hat brand's factory tour reveals the craftsmanship behind hats that often last for decades.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
