    The Drover from Australia - From the western, Australia. The style of cowboy hat worn by Hugh Jackman as Drover, hand made in 100x Mink fur felt by the last best west™.

    Mink fur has 2 layers of fur protected by thick oil making it wonderfully waterproof. The thick under fur is protected by slightly longer guard hairs making the fur amazingly soft and luxurious.
