Melbourne hat
Our quality craftsmanship and attention to detail extends into our range of hats and caps. Our unrivalled craftsmanship and quality shines through, from the timeless Akubra’s in a range of wide-brim styles and everyday caps. Whether you're working on harsh, rugged terrain or enjoying time with family, each piece carries the same undeniable seal of approval.
At R.M.Williams, we represent lasting quality you can measure in years, rather than a single season. Reginald Murray 'RM' Williams found the boots and saddlery of his day lacking, so in 1932, he set out to make products that would endure harsh Australian conditions and look right doing it. That same standard runs through our boots, belts, leather bags and wallets today. You can count on us not to make flashy claims and quick trends. We solve real problems by choosing quality and resilient materials instead, from leather and denim to Australian wool and moleskin. From paddock to city, you want gear that backs you up, so we put durability first while keeping design honest. Our men's leather boots are still crafted at our Adelaide workshop by people who know their trade and take quiet pride in their work. Each piece is grounded in the same spirit that drove RM himself: build something that lasts, let purpose set the standard and let the result speak for itself. And if you're looking into 'Melbourne hat' or 'workman socks', we stay true to crafting products built for life's journeys and ready for your next move.
We've crafted boots designed to move effortlessly from rugged countryside trails to sleek office floors. One of the features that makes this versatility possible is the Goodyear welt, a method that secures a leather welt to the insole so that the footwear remains repairable and ready for resoling instead of being retired early. Our men's and women's Chelsea boots are also made with a single hide, shaped and finished with a reinforced heel seam for added durability. This construction shows what more than 9 decades of local ingenuity looks like, without any shortcuts or compromises. Our women's and men's Chelsea boots also have options for every kind of terrain, from refined leather soles that keep you sharp in the boardroom to rugged rubber soles for the yards. As you look up 'Melbourne hat', you'll find that our selection isn't limited to boots. You can pull on a crew-neck sweatshirt or a classic shirt from our quality men's clothing range or grab knitwear from our premium women's clothing collection, built for comfort and made to handle shifting seasons. Our range keeps dressing across changing seasons simple, so you can get on with the job and keep your wardrobe working as hard as you do, whether you're researching 'plus size sweatshirts' or 'socks with loafers'.
Getting the right pair of boots is easy with us: simply pick the style, colour and sole that best suits the way you wear your shoes day to day. The Comfort rubber sole is built for traction and hard-wearing performance in tougher conditions, while the Classic leather sole pairs premium cowhide with a full leather insole, light padding and a 3/4 leather sock for breathable wear. Men's sizes run from 3 to 17, and women's sizes range from 5 to 11. Men's styles are sold in narrow, regular and wide fittings, while women's styles come in regular and wide fits. After you've chosen your pair, you can select standard or express delivery, both available across Australia, with same-day dispatch offered for qualifying orders. For special orders and repairs, we complete them to order and finalise the craftsmanship before arranging delivery. We also offer free 60 day returns that can be done by post as well as in-store.
