Aussie Chiller "SOAK ME" class is in session..

Our headwear are designed to eliminate heat and sweat before it starts. Their unique design and materials have been engineered to provide ultimate sun protection while still delivering maximum ventilation and cooling. The hat’s functionality and versatility is why people say that this is the best hat they’ve ever had. This hat is the ideal accessory for outdoor activities, golfing, hiking and more.

EVAPORATIVE COOLING

EXPLAINED

Evaporative cooling works by using the natural process of water evaporation to draw heat away from your head, essentially enhancing your body's own cooling mechanism (sweat) combined with water.

Here's our 3 step process brokendown:

STEP ONE - Activation: Our Aussie Chiller hats are activated by soaking them in water. Special hydrophilic fibers within the hat's core absorb and hold the water.

STEP TWO - Cooling Process / Heat Transfer: Heat from the wearer's head transfers into the water - activating the core material.

STEP THREE - Evaporation: As this water changes from a liquid to a vapor (evaporates) through the outer layer of the fabric, it absorbs a significant amount of heat energy—known as the heat of vaporization—from the hat and the area around the head.

*OUTCOME* - Temperature Drop: This removal of heat energy lowers the temperature of the hat's fabric, creating a cooling sensation for the wearer.

The cooling effect is most effective in hot climates where the air can readily absorb water vapors.

Your hat will provide cooling relief for 1-3 hours before needing to be reactivated with more water.

All our headwear can handle Salt Water or Chlorine - Just give it a rinse in fresh water after. Chlorine will aid in cleaning sweat bacteria from the internal sweat band. The silver eyelets and badge are made from rust proof nickel - and the plaited band is of the same fabric as the hat construct.

See Size Guide for best fit.

We all know head pressure can dampen your day. If your in between sizes, we suggest moving up one size and adding a Drawstring & Toggle for added security.

You could also add our Chiller Fillers. They stick under the internal elastic sweat band - on the crown - out of sight. This would reduce 1cm/0.4" or one hat size.

Kids sizes and XXL are in the works for early '26.
