Special Order
This is a Custom Akubra Hat Service. These services are special order -- no returns or exchanges for the custom service -- and are only available for Akubras purchased directly from us.
We actually recommend that our customers add their own bash, rather than using this service. Adding a bash is easy, with instructions provided with all our open crown hats. Adding the bash yourself enables you to first check the size and style, then perfect the bash to your own tastes. If you don't like your first attempts, reshape the hat until you are satisfied, then set the bash by wearing in the rain or steaming.
Please note:
1. Custom hat services are a special order. No returns or exchanges of the custom service unless defective or not as specified.
2. Please allow up to two business days extra processing time for our custom hat services.
3. If you want a custom hat service for a hat you have already purchased from us, please follow the instructions (included with your purchase) for returning your hat to us, and include our normal handling fee. Our Custom Akubra Hat Services are only available for Akubras purchased from us.
4. If you are unsure of your hat size or the desired style, we recommend you find a local hat retailer to assist you in person with sizing and custom shaping. A lising of Akubra dealers in the US and Canada can be found at akubra-usa.com.
